The Hobbs Act , named after Congressman Sam Hobbs ( D-AL ) and codified at 18 U.S.C . § 1951 , is a U.S. federal law enacted in 1946 that provides :
Mail fraud and wire fraud are federal crimes in the United States that involve mailing or electronically transmitting something associated with fraud . Jurisdiction is claimed by the federal government if the illegal activity crosses interstate or international borders .
James C. Dimora ( born June 21 , 1955 ) is an American politician who served as Cuyahoga County Commissioner from 1998 until 2010 , and as chairman of the county Democratic Party from 1994 until 2009 . Before being elected county commissioner , Dimora served as mayor of Bedford Heights , Ohio for 17 years . In 2012 Dimora was convicted of 32 charges including racketeering , bribery , conspiracy , and tax charges and sentenced to 28 years in federal prison in one of the largest criminal corruption cases in Ohio history . He is currently serving his sentence at Federal Correctional Institution , Elkton , with a release date of 2036 . His inmate number is 56275-060 . The corruption case led to a change in the nature of the county government : one year after the beginning of the case , county voters elected to change the form of government from commission-based to one with a county executive .
The Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations ( RICO ) Act is a United States federal law that provides for extended criminal penalties and a civil cause of action for acts performed as part of an ongoing criminal organization . The RICO Act focuses specifically on racketeering and allows the leaders of a syndicate to be tried for the crimes they ordered others to do or assisted them in doing , closing a perceived loophole that allowed a person who instructed someone else to , for example , murder , to be exempt from the trial because they did not actually commit the crime personally . RICO was enacted by section 901 ( a ) of the Organized Crime Control Act of 1970 ( Pub.L . 91-452 , 84 Stat . 922 , enacted October 15 , 1970 ) and is codified at 18 U.S.C . ch . 96 as 18 U.S.C . §§ 1961-1968 . G. Robert Blakey , an adviser to the United States Senate Government Operations Committee , drafted the law under the close supervision of the committee 's chairman , Senator John Little McClellan . It was enacted as Title IX of the Organized Crime Control Act of 1970 , and signed into law by Richard M. Nixon . While its original use in the 1970s was to prosecute the Mafia as well as others who were actively engaged in organized crime , its later application has been more widespread . Beginning in 1972 , 33 states adopted state RICO laws to be able to prosecute similar conduct .
Dario Herrera ( born June 27 , 1973 ) is a former Democratic politician from Nevada . Herrera was considered a rising star in the Democratic Party until his defeat for election to the United States House of Representatives in 2002 and his subsequent convictions on federal public corruption charges .
Robert Charles Janiszewski ( born September 18 , 1945 ) is a former American Democratic Party politician who served as County Executive of Hudson County , New Jersey from 1988 to 2001 . In 2002 he pleaded guilty to taking more than $ 100,000 in bribes , and in 2005 was sentenced to 41 months in prison , despite cooperating with federal investigators . He was the highest-ranking elected official in state history ever to work undercover for the FBI .
Jack Bruce Johnson ( born April 3 , 1949 ) is a former American politician and lawyer . He was a Maryland state 's attorney and was , from 2002 to 2010 , the county executive of Prince George 's County , Maryland . He was elected state 's attorney in November 1994 and served as county executive from December 2002 to December 2010 . On November 12 , 2010 , both Johnson and his wife were indicted on federal charges as part of a larger political corruption scandal in the county . On May 17 , 2011 , Johnson pleaded guilty to extortion and witness- and evidence-tampering . He served most of his seven-year and three-month sentence at the Cumberland Federal Correctional Institution , with prisoner number 52777-037 .
