14 indicted in Genovese Family

Post by willychichi »

state grand jury has indicted 14 people with alleged ties to the notorious Genovese crime family who stand accused of running a multi-million-dollar criminal enterprise that New Jersey's top law enforcement official described as "a smorgasbord of mob schemes."

The defendants had their hands in illicit activity ranging from gambling and loansharking to unlicensed check cashing and money laundering, according to acting state Attorney General Robert Lougy.

State authorities claim the New Jersey crew operated under the supervision of two "made" men — reputed capo Charles "Chuckie"€ Tuzzo and alleged soldier Vito Alberti, of Morristown — who reported back to the Genovese organization in New York.

This is just the same charges as 2014 by a different agency to insure they get some jail time. Typical and all involved knew it was coming. This is the indictment that revealed that MIkey Cigars kid is a Junkie. They caught him snorting heroin at a rest stop.

Yeah, it does look to be an extension of the original October 2014 bust.

Below is the press release by the New Jersey AG. Has an extensive breakdown of the charges, as well as a photo chart and the indictment itself.

The Mob's Theme Song -- "Money, Money, Money"

By George Anastasia

It was the underworld's version of a full service financial operation.

It featured bookmaking, loansharking and money laundering. Most of the financial wheeling and dealing centered in a Newark-based check cashing business.

The numbers, detailed in an indictment unsealed this week by the New Jersey Attorney General's Office, were staggering. The loansharking business, according to the AG, generated $4.7 million in interest payments. The illegal check cashing business took in $9 million in fees while allowing customers to launder money and avoid federal tax reporting requirements. The sports betting operation, with an offshore wire room in Costa Rica, generated millions more.

"This case is a smorgasbord of mob schemes," said acting New Jersey Attorney General Robert Lougy in a news release that detailed the indictment of 10 alleged members and associates of the powerful Genovese crime family in what authorities are calling "Operation Fistful."

More on the story

IT’S ALWAYS ABOUT THE MONEY

By George Anastasia

The mob goes where the money is.

“As long as there’s money to be had, that’s where you’ll find them,” said the young, energetic former federal prosecutor who now heads the New Jersey Division of Criminal Justice.

Honig is in a position to know.

He made his bones prosecuting mobsters for the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Southern District of New York, winning cases in which dozens of gangsters were convicted, including high-profile targets like Gambino crime family capo Danny Marino and Genovese family leader Ciro Perrone.
