when we get to the RICO charges, I’m putting you in charge of the thread!
(what’s high/low mean?)
“High/Low” can be a dirty and dangerous football takedown of a defensive tackle or guard. I’ve got the scar to prove it. Two SOBs double-teamed me during a touch football game at college. The smaller guy hit me below the knees so that I would crumble while the bigger guy smashed me in the mouth with his elbow.
Normally a good High/Low only takes the target out of the play by dropping them and if done safely, no one gets hurt.
I love RICO charges. Worked on an Organized Crime Task Force with the RICO statutes being used for an “assets seizure” project. Due to Bill Clinton and Hillary taking money from the Mob (Gambinos, Gotti, etc), AG Janet Reno quashed the 200+ indictments and appointed a somewhat hack attorney to be the union’s overseer in their “mob cleanup”.
The whole sickening story is found in the April 1977 issue of “The American Spectator”, Byron York, “Let’s Be Friends: A Mob-Controlled Union Delivers the Goods for Bill”. About the LIUNA, Laborers International Union of North America and their money to the Clintons and the Democrats in mid-1990s.
York’s great work summed up what happened to the investigation I was detached to, with incredible details on the Mob-Clinton money connections. This article filled in the bigger picture of what I was doing as we were a segmented operation. Reno betrayed us and several undercover operatives (who are mentioned in films about Gotti and the Mob in crime documentary shows on TV).
Another case of the Democrats betraying law enforcement by using a corrupt AG (Reno) to protect the Clintons and the Dems from prosecution and jail.
