Honestly the only thing I think they deserve to go to jail for is taking over the machine business. Maybe the no show job, but they havent proved if that was extortion or just a favor to ligambi in exchange for jobs and protection. But even on those charges, i dont believe warrants 10 yrs. Restitution, a fine, and yeah a few yrs, but keep in mind theyve been in for 2+ already. Being a bookie? Having some machines? It seems like its only a big deal if its unregulated or untaxed. Loansharking? Same, goes either way for me. If it gets to the point of extortionate (and i dont mean as in the federal terms), as in the borrower is hurt, or forced to bankrupt his business, yeah. But then again, shylocks seem like peanuts compared to credit card companies. So for the amount of corruption and underhandedness that goes on in corporate america and in politics today, coupled with years of unfair tactics by law enforcement and the justice system... Yeah i hope these guys get off. Just my opinion.
