Description: RICO, the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act, was passed in 1970. The original intent of this federal law was to combat organized crime in the United States. Interestingly, the law has proven to be quite flexible and, in addition to being used to prosecute members of the mafia, it has also been used to prosecute the Hells Angels motorcycle gang, and Operation Rescue, an anti-abortion group, and other groups not traditionally considered to be part of an “organized crime” syndicate.
Our panel of experts will explore RICO’s provisions for prosecution of and civil penalties for racketeering activities, such as illegal gambling, bribery, kidnapping, murder, money laundering, counterfeiting, embezzlement, drug trafficking, and slavery, performed as part of an ongoing criminal enterprise.
