A Call For U.S. Treasury Department To Designate Gambino Crime Family As A Transnational Criminal Organization
The Gambino crime family allegedly is strengthening its ties to the old country, and the supposed move may prove its undoing under a recently issued Executive Order by President Barack Obama which authorizes the Treasury Department to designate transnational crime groups in order to freeze their U.S. assets and ban American citizens and companies from conducting business with them.
...
Designating the Gambino crime family as a transnational criminal organization would financially squeeze it out of existence. All the U.S. bank accounts, real estate and business concerns which are affiliated with its purported members and associates would be frozen, and no American could engage in any financial or business transactions with them. In one fell swoop the Treasury Department through the Office of Foreign Assets Control would do more to undermine the Gambino crime family than more than fifty years of criminal prosecutions.

I have to say but charging mobster with the anti terroism statutes is wrong. They are not killing thousands of people and terroising million upon millions of people. So extreme.

I've said this before, but charging American LCN guys with the anti-terrorism statutes will be next. my question is, how long until the feds lose all credibility whatsoever and start locking people up with no trial/lawyer/due process whatsoever under NDAA as its just easier than doing things the "rightway"? these laws seem to be put in place as sort of an endgame/copout, and not just for peoiple associated with OC. wake up/do your research, and get informed people!

I think you are right, Pizzaboy. It get a little steamed how law enforcement bends laws and designations to fit their whims. No doubt an abuse of Government power. But like I said, it is what it is and it ain't gonna change. And I'm just pointing out that these new "laws" are among the many reasons why gangster is a poor career choice in America today. These new "laws" are also among the many reasons why American LCN will never be the same.

Currently they are in good shape. But once that transnational law goes into place you're right it'll be over for them. I'll give it another year before we see some indictments come down on Dom and Frankie Currently they are in good shape. But once that transnational law goes into place you're right it'll be over for them. I'll give it another year before we see some indictments come down on Dom and Frankie ^ I'll check out that transnational law. Haven't read a lot about the Gambino's as a lot of the senior posters back in the day when the cherryhill gambino's got jammed up did rosario take that on the chin being the oldest brother when the other two were acquitted that's honor

Like the others said, their bending laws
And they're doing so to get rid of dangerous crooks, that's one law bending I fully approve.
So it's ok for the government to break the law and not individuals? The government breaking the law is the worst kind if crime because there is no one to prosecute them. There's no doubt about that, Ted. I agree with you 100%. But it is what it is. The Feds are never going to let up on them. You know it and I know it.

This is just an individual blogger calling on the feds to use the transnational law against the gambinos. There are no indications out there that this will be case. Dap, Do you not agree that the Feds will eventually use the anti-terrorism statutes as a measure against the mob? The day will eventually come when someone gets pinched doing business third hand with a group like al-Qaeda. Probably something small like a bullshit drug charge. The mob guys probably won't even realize who they're doing business with, but The Feds will take a bullshit association like that and run with it. When that happens, they're really in for it. There will be International charges all around. It will all be in the name of sensationalism and will basically be a witch hunt, but it doesn't mean that it's not going to happen. It will. Guaranteed.
