9 New York mobsters busted for racketeering/money laundering
 | For a decade, families visited a small coffee shop in suburban Long Island for pastries and gelato. Most were unaware of the longstanding gambling operation playing out just feet away from them: a secret underground gambling den in the store. Several across the island and in Queens served as a front for two of New York’s oldest crime families. The Long Island coffee shop alone typically earned them more than $10k per week. When other gambling clubs threatened their turf, Nassau County detective Hector Rosario, 49, offered to conduct police raids on the rival clubs in exchange for payments. 9 members and associates of the Genovese and Bonanno clans, and the dirty cop, were charged in a racketeering case. |
 Carmelo Polito | The Gran Caffe was opened around May 2012 and members of the two clans agreed on a profit split. The pattern was similar at the other fronts, which included Sal’s Shoe Repair in Merrick, N.Y., and La Nazionale Soccer Club in Queens. |  Bonanno capo Anthony Pipitone |

See ----->Gregory Woolley being sent a message

Trump raided by FBI - takes the 5th - Update IV
 | It was thought Rudy Guiliani would be thrown under the bus by Trump in 2019. A body can make book it will happen this time. The FBI seized 11 sets of restricted or secret documents including 1 ultra top secret 'signals intelligence', which are intercepted phone or email communications. Top Secret/Sensitive Compartmented Information is a level of classification above top secret. These are among the most sensitive types of classified material the US has. Any 'normal' citizen caught with these documents would be in jail. |  |
 | Trump pushed back on reports that some of the documents the FBI sought at Mar-a-Lago included information related to nuclear weapons. “Nuclear weapons issue is a Hoax, just like Russia, Russia, Russia was a Hoax, two Impeachments were a Hoax, the Mueller investigation was a Hoax, and much more. Same sleazy people involved.” Trump said on his 'Truth Social'. The Washington Post reported the FBI was seeking documents containing information on nuclear weapons. Trump is suggesting documents were planted. |
Vito Genovese, the 'king of the rackets,' invoked a Fifth Amendment plea more than 150 times in 1958 as a Senate committee accused him of crimes from racketeering to murder. In 1959, his reign as boss ended when he was convicted on narcotics conspiracy charges and sentenced to 15 years in prison. He died there in 1969.

FBI officers left with 20 boxes of documents. |  |

'Dapper' Danny Hogan
 Daniel P. Hogan 1905 Age 22 | "Dapper" Danny Hogan (ca. 1880 - December 4, 1928) was a charismatic underworld figure and boss of Saint Paul, Minnesota's Irish Mob during Prohibition. His connections to cops of the deeply corrupt St. Paul Police Department made him hugely rich. Police Chief John "The Big Fellow" O'Connor of Saint Paul allowed criminals to operate in the city as long as they checked in with police, paid a small bribe and promised not to kill, kidnap, or rob within city limits. St. Paul was a safe haven for gangsters from 1900 to 1936 — as long as they conducted their criminal shenanigans elsewhere. Notorious gangsters like John Dillinger, Al Capone, “Babyface” Nelson, Ma Barker, Alvin Karpis, Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow all made Minnesota stops. |  |
 | On December 4, 1928, Dapper Dan got behind the wheel of his Paige coupe and turned on the ignition. A bomb located beneath the floorboards detonated and blew off his right leg. He slipped into a coma at the hospital and died nine hours after the blast. Although the murder is still considered unsolved, declassified FBI files reveal that the most likely person responsible was Harry Sawyer, Hogan's underboss. |
