Organized Crime

How do we cripple national and international organized crime syndicates that strangle free enterprise and raise the level of violence, fraud, and corruption in our cities? By using every capability and tool we’ve got: undercover operations; surveillance; confidential sources; intelligence analysis and sharing; forensic accounting; multi-agency investigations; and the power of racketeering statutes that help us take down entire enterprises. We also work closely with our international partners—in some cases, swapping personnel—to build cases and disrupt syndicates with global ties.

This Month In Organized Crime

A Detroit FBI agent puts Albanian criminal Drini Brahimllari into a car after his February 2008 return to the U.S. to face racketeering charges in Michigan. When you hear the words “organized crime,” the first thing that comes to mind is probably the Mafia and its five major crime families in New York City. But have you ever heard of the notorious Thief-in-Law Vyacheslav Ivankov, the Solnstsevo organization, the Young Joon Yang gang, or the Black Dragons? They’re involved in organized crime, too. Individuals associated with Eurasian and Asian criminal groups are targeting the U.S. and are a top priority of the FBI’s organized crime busting efforts.
