Book excerpt: Suitcases of money . . . boxes of cocaine . . . undercover agents . . . wiretaps . . . government leaks . . . crooked agents . . . and grandmas? For most of their lives the four middle-aged women had never violated the law. But cocaine and its false promise of excitement and riches drew them in, one by one, into a multi-million-dollar money laundering and cocaine trafficking scheme. Cocaine also ensnared a nationally known jeans designer and sent him plummeting on a path toward personal destruction. Perhaps most disturbing of all, cocaine's profits lured agents from two different federal agencies--men sworn to investigate and bring cocaine traffickers to justice--to violate their oaths and engage in significant criminal acts. This is the true but incredible story of the Grandma Mafia.

Download or read book Dirty Money written by Robert Perry and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-05-25 with total page 300 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dirty Money describes the origin of financial investigations of narcotics traffickers through four landmark prosecutions in Los Angeles. The House that Heroin Built tells of how a major heroin dealer's purchases of luxury items, including a San Marino mansion and several expensive cars, were used to prove he was the leader of a national organization and obtain a life without parole sentence. The Hunt for the Architect details how a small bank's reports of currency deposits helped identify and bring to justice an organization which derived more than $32,000,000 from heroin and cocaine. A Very, Very Honest Lawyer concerns the detection and investigation of a sophisticated money laundering service for narcotics traffickers run by a Beverly Hills attorney. The Grandma Mafia relates how a courageous banker helped uncover a multi-million dollar money laundering and cocaine trafficking operation run by middle-aged grandmothers. The recounting of these significant cases is told by former Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert Perry, who supervised the investigations and represented the government at trial. Today, financial investigations are a major weapon in the federal government's continuing fight against narcotics. This important investigative technique originated in the cases described in this book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's late. Pooch, the howling Doberman next door, is distraught. 73-year-old Granny Ann decides to take him a treat of left-over roast beef. She falls precariously through a rotted fence and discovers that all is not well with her reclusive and mysterious neighbor. A few clues later; she immediately adopts Pooch as her own and is smiling big with a hidden manuscript and other surprise discoveries. She absconds with a windfall which leads her to an unexpected confrontation with a very angry and extremely depraved and dangerous Mafia hit-man. Lovable Pooch the Doberman becomes his judge and jury. Pooch ends up a local hero. 'He didn't need no stinkin' badge!' Questions proliferate and linger: Glaring truths, though unproven, arrive accidentally as a secretive fact from a very unlikely source; (in the form of a young offspring of the guilty party). The ensuing tale leads to a passel of interesting people and a pair of partners-for-life. It reaffirms and confirms Granny Ann's original allegations as to why everyone's water and garbage rates are so high. After the Mafia shakedowns of the 1990s, the FBI assumed the mob had been completely diffused. Maybe they were wrong. Maybe the Mafia had simply gone underground and into the very lucrative and semi-respectable garbage business. The flamboyant days of John Gotti were surely over. 1992 was a very tough time for the Mafia! The crime bosses who had replaced those of that previous era had carried on. They had simply chosen to remain anonymous and totally invisible, (the older Sicilian way). They had eased out of the headline-grabbing notorious rackets of the past. Instead, they had very quietly eased unnoticed into the nation's garbage service industries. Garbage collection became more profitable than the earlier protection rackets and/or the drug or gambling rackets combined. In truth, it was making them more money than ever and it was almost respectable. The competition had all been frightened away, eliminated or devoured, creating a monopoly. As a result, the monopolization of garbage collection became 100 times more profitable than even the crime bosses had dreamed. The Mafia was still quietly and very much in control of 'That Thing of Theirs'. The old Mafia had become the new invisible Garbage Mafia. This new Mafia was apparently totally invisible, invincible and more untouchable than ever before. J. Edgar Hoover, the old bulldog, had failed to bring them down. Bobby Kennedy couldn't bring them down; nor had Rudy Giuliani or anyone else . . . (for long). They had quietly become invisible in plain sight once again, and they had apparently survived it all. Local Police remain baffled as Granny and Pooch unravel the case a few steps ahead of them. A new and soon to be life-partner, helps conclude the story by making suggestions to a few powerful connections in exactly the right places. The story becomes national news and the Mafia disappears once again. Will it lead to reduced water and garbage rates for the entire nation? That would be nice, wouldn't it! So, if your water and garbage rates seem unreasonably high, you may want to question the possibility that maybe the Mafia hasn't actually disappeared. It's just possible that they have gone quietly and discreetly into the new and different (almost respectable) monopolized racket of gouging us all for our garbage collection service. Can we be certain that this is a fictional story? You decide!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Outraged by recent encroachments on citizens' rights that have been justified by claims that new and more restrictive laws will combat the ravages of international crime, Naylor contends that no police campaign that fails to address the demand for illegal goods and services has ever succeeded. He supports this claim with detailed - and often entertaining - accounts of past criminal operations and law enforcement's attempts to stop them. Wages of Crime makes a persuasive case for the need to address the underlying economic and political factors that encourage criminal enterprises rather than relying on restrictive laws.
Download or read book Mob Daughter written by Karen Gravano and published by St. Martin's Press. This book was released on 2012-02-14 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Karen Gravano, a star of the hit VH1 reality show Mob Wives, comes a revealing memoir of a mafia childhood, where love and family come hand-in-hand with murder and betrayal. Karen Gravano is the daughter of Sammy "the Bull" Gravano, once one of the mafia's most feared hit men. With nineteen confessed murders, the former Gambino Crime Family underboss—and John Gotti's right-hand man—is the highest ranking gangster ever to turn State's evidence and testify against members of his high-profile crime family. But to Karen, Sammy Gravano was a sometimes elusive but always loving father figure. He was ever-present at the head of the dinner table. He made a living running a construction firm and several nightclubs. He stayed out late, and sometimes he didn't come home at all. He hosted "secret" meetings at their house, and had countless whispered conversations with "business associates." By the age of twelve, Karen knew he was a gangster. And as she grew up, while her peers worried about clothes and schoolwork, she was coming face-to-face with crime and murder. Gravano was nineteen years old when her father turned his back on the mob and cooperated with the Feds. The fabric of her family was ripped apart, and they were instantly rejected by the communities they grew up in. This is the story of a daughter's struggle to reconcile the image of her loving father with that of a murdering Mafioso, and how, in healing the rift between the two, she was able to forge a new life.
