Some examples of that can be found in the link below, The RICO Trusteeships after Twenty Years: A Progress Report. It goes over various locals that were put under trusteeship in the past and whether that was successful or not. And if not, why that was. Some of the ones that were unsuccessful included:

LIUNA Local 6A
IBT Local 295
New York District Council of Carpenters
ILA Local 1588
ILA Local 1814

Another recent example is IBT Local 282 where, despite clean up and reform in the union itself, there wasn't the same oversight of the benefit funds and the mob was able to exploit that.
