"While the penalty is a significant one for a case involving a private home, R------, who owns several car dealerships, will have no trouble covering it. The Colombo crime family figure, in fact, is apparently New York's wealthiest hoodlum--and by a wide margin. In underworld circles, R------ is known as an ''earner,'' a valued mob figure who generates millions from illegal activities or legitimate businesses--in this case, the automotive industry.

While a recent spate of newspaper stories has chronicled the supposed disarray--organizational and financial--of New York's crime families, R------ is feeling no such pain. Last year, records show, the mafioso sold two Florida auto dealerships for a staggering $33 million in cash. His remaining business interests--which include Nostrand Avenue's prosperous Plaza Auto Mall--and real estate investments could make R------ the underworld's only $50 million man."
