"it certainly covers money laundering" No especial NEED for R.I.C.O. any more with regard to 'money laundering', LOL! The federal laws against 'money laundering', 'structuring' transactions to avoid federal reporting limits, have been so BROADENED and EXPANDED in recent years... (the legal principle of 'innocent until proven guilty' has been REVERSED with regards to money and property... now the 'property' is actually legally presumed to be guilty unless proven otherwise), that there is little need for R.I.C.O. any time that the feds desire to charge someone with a 'financial crime'. About the only thing that R.I.C.O. adds, I believe, is trebled penalties. :-(
