Bad boys, bad boys, what are you going to do, what are you going to do when they come for you was the last song mob members thought they would hear. The Gambino Crime Family had to think about that song:
Scores of crimes were outlined in state and federal indictments unsealed on Thursday that charged 87 people and represented a government move against the upper echelon of the Gambino crime family.
Beginning with early morning knocks on doors around the New York City area, the case formed the basis for a roundup that authorities called the biggest such sweep in memory, one that was coordinated with arrests by Italian authorities in Sicily.
The charges took aim at not only the family’s leadership but at a cadre of middle managers and lower level figures in the Gambino clan and others in the Bonanno and Genovese families. Also charged were several union and construction officials.
Will they beat the charges? I guess they think it will take the feds some time to convict them if this becomes a repeat of the late John Gotti "Teflon Don" episode.
