  • Epilogue on the Lack of African-American (And Other)
    EPILOGUE ON THE LACK OF AFRICAN-AMERICAN (AND OTHER) ORGANIZED CRIME RESEARCH THE RELATIVE DEARTH OF AFRICAN-AMERICAN ORGANIZED CRIME RESEARCH I began this research in 1992 when a colleague asked me if I could investigate the activities and networks of an African-American gangster named Jack Brown.1 My associate was particularly interested in Brown’s operations in the Philadelphia region in the 1970s. Local and federal law enforcement officials in the area did not have – or at least did not offer – much information on Jack Brown, though they did maintain extensive files on a relatively large and significant organized crime group named the “Black Mafia”. When I was first introduced to the topic, and more importantly shown the voluminous files within several agencies, my reaction was one of amazement. The files were substantial. Many of the group’s activities, as has been demonstrated in the pages above, were notorious – the DuBrow Furniture robbery/arson/murder, the Hanafi murders, the misappropriation of community “seed” money, the murder of Major Coxson, and the complex role of Philadelphia’s Black Muslim Mosque #12 – including the relationships of boxing legend Muhammad Ali to Major Coxson and to Jeremiah Shabazz. In addition to other noteworthy aspects of the group, there were the astronomical number of internecine murders, and the facts that two of the Black Mafia founding members spent time on the FBI’s Most Wanted list (which has only listed 458 people since its inception), and that for a time the group accounted for 80% of the city’s heroin market. Then there were the significant activities of Black Mafia members as they rotated in and out of the prison system over the course of approximately 25 years.

  • In Search of Meyer
    In Search of Meyer By Jerry Klinger "Murder Inc.", Balad, the Israel Supreme Court He sleeps silently in the Mt. Nebo Jewish cemetery in West Miami, Florida awaiting the coming of the Messiah. To the end, he declared himself a Jew, though not a religious one. Meyer shares his gravesite with his oldest son Buddy under the flight path of El Al jets arriving from Israel into nearby Miami International airport. A large pink colored memorial stone carved with the single un-telling name, Lanksy, and an eternal light to one side is at his head. His footstone reads modestly, "Meyer Lansky 1902 -1983", a Star of David serves as the dash between the dates. "Forever in our Hearts" is carved on the bottom row. His son has only a footstone – "Bernard (Buddy) Lansky, January 15, 1930 – December 31, 1989." The dates are also separated by a Star of David. The bottom line of the metal plaque on the stone reads simply, "Loving Son." Mt. Nebo cemetery is in a seedy Hispanic part of town with heavy iron grates on the windows of the houses to keep the criminals in the neighborhood out. Meyer Lansky's life, on one level, was a simple story. An immigrant child, he struggled hard to improve himself. He attended cheder and carried the Shabbat cholent to the baker for after Shabbat service meals with his family. He never went past the 8th grade. He chose to work in the rough and tumble of business. He married and had three children. His first wife suffered from severe mental illness.
