Thanks Michal for your post. I have one example of a racketeering sentence that we can start with... ELEVATOR CONSTRUCTORS (IUEC) Ex-NYC Union Boss Sentenced for Racketeering Charles Novak, former V.P. and Business Agent of Local 1 of the Intl. Union of Elevator Constructors was sentenced on Dec. 1 after a jury convicted him of racketeering, racketeering conspiracy, receiving unlawful labor payments in violation of the Taft-Hartley Act, mail fraud, making false statements about benefit funds, money laundering and money laundering conspiracy. U.S. Dist. Judge David Trager (E.D. NY, Clinton) sentenced Novak to 9 years in prison, 3 years of supervised release, and was ordered to pay restitution of $289,000, and a $15,000 special assessment. In addition, the court entered a forfeiture judgment in the amount of $300,000 against Novak and directed him to report to prison on February 1, 2005. U.S. Attorney Roslyn Mauskopf also announced that an additional 36 defendants have pleaded guilty in connection with her Office's investigation of this wide-ranging no-show jobs scheme that included extortion, witness tampering and obstruction of justice.
