There is no doubt in my mind that many bookmakers are taking action in Cleveland...just not in the traditional structure of a mafia family of years past. RJ has done well with real estate and I'm sure Iacabacci has something going on. What always puzzled me about Cleveland (and most people don't know that they were one of the most powerful mafia clans in the country for many years, especially from the 1930's-1980's)is why John Scalish never had an army of associates to replenish the ranks when age & attrition caught up to them. Scalish was by far one of the most powerful dons of the Midwest, very well respected and had an extremely successful legitimate business in Buckeye Vending to show income for tax purposes, yet he didn't think about the future of the family (or at least on the surface it appears that way).
