  • Women's Crime and Criminal Administration in Pennsylvania, 1763-1790
    Women's Crime and Criminal Administration in Pennsylvania, 1763-1790 NN WINTER appeared in court first in the December, 1764, term of Philadelphia County's court of quarter sessions charged Awith felonious theft; she suffered corporal punishment when a jury found against her. In 1770 and again in 1773, she appeared before Lancaster County's general sessions, in the first instance having a count of assault against her dismissed, in the second being convicted of stealing. Back in Philadelphia in September, 1777, she pleaded guilty to a third charge of theft and was sentenced to jail. In April 1779, before the mayor's court in Philadelphia and this time using the alias Mary Flood, Ann Winter was convicted of three counts of larceny and received thirty-nine lashes on her bare back for each conviction. She was by this time known as "a Notorious Thief." Records reveal she was also in "a forlorn condition," the mother of "two fatherless children," and again "big with child." Should she be released and her fine remitted, she promised authorities in November, 1779, they "should never after this time hear of the least blemish against her character As she intended retiring into the country to endeavour for an honest livelihood." Promises aside, Winter was again convicted of larceny in March, 1780, this time in oyer and terminer proceedings, and once more suffered corporal punishment and confinement. She was also judged guilty of larceny in the mayor's court in July, 1782, and in July, 1785, and pleaded guilty to still another charge of theft in April, 1784.

  • 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.

  • Crime, Justice, and Order in the North Carolina Piedmont, 1760-1806
    STROUD, JASON MICHAEL, Ph.D. Crime, Justice, and Order in the North Carolina Piedmont, 1760-1806. (2019) Directed by Dr. Greg O’Brien. 345 pp. This dissertation examines crime and disorder in the North Carolina Piedmont between 1760 and 1806, exploring the ways that criminal justice and the law were enforced in the region. It is rooted in an analysis of the colonial and state Superior Court records from Salisbury and Hillsborough and traces the process by which authorities— first the colonial government and then the revolutionary state—attempted to establish and maintain order in the region. This most basic function of criminal justice necessarily involved the identification of individuals and groups of people as criminals by the state. I argue that understanding this legal and juridical process, which marked many of the people of the region as unfit subjects and citizens, helps provide a framework for understanding the turmoil and disorder that characterized the Revolutionary era in the region. As the North Carolina government sought to assert its legitimacy through imposing order, it marked presumptively disorderly men and women including horse thieves, land squatters, “Regulators,” Loyalists, and, significantly, the enslaved, as outlaws. Faced with alienation from legal and political legitimacy, these people resisted, articulating in the process a different conception of justice, one rooted in the social, political, and cultural realities of the region. This dissertation, then, traces a pattern of conflict and turmoil that reveals very different, and at times diametrically opposed, understandings of justice between governing elites and local men and women in the Piedmont. Moreover, by focusing on the interrelated issues of criminality, justice, and order, this work attempts to deepen scholarly understanding of the Revolution in the North Carolina backcountry, in particular the ways it affected the relationship between individuals and the state.

  • Locking out Auto Theft 2012 Annual Report 2012 Pa Auto Theft Prevention Authority Annual Report | 1 Contents
    LOCKING OUT AUTO THEFT 2012 ANNUAL REPORT 2012 PA AUTO THEFT PREVENTION AUTHORITY ANNUAL REPORT | 1 CONTENTS Letter to the Governor TO THE HONORABLE GOVERNOR TOM CORBETT AND 01 MEMBERS OF THE PENNSYLVANIA GENERAL ASSEMBLY: Auto theft remains a costly crime in Pennsylvania, with 15,578 vehicles stolen Who is the Authority? last year* – it is an evolving and complicated crime, often involving violence. The Grantees Pennsylvania Auto Theft Prevention Authority (ATPA) gives grantees the tools to stay current and bust both the major international crime ring and the smaller neighborhood 02 menace. Thieves used to operate solo to hot-wire cars and take them on joyrides. Now, networks of criminals also orchestrate complex schemes to round up cars for sale overseas. Grantees: Juvenile Prevention Training, Legislative Reform ATPA provides the communication network, resources, and training to combat today’s auto theft. We are making a difference. The Commonwealth has once again seen a 04 drop in auto theft. I am pleased to report: • A 10% decrease in auto theft statewide in 2012 • A 19% decrease in auto theft in the greater Philadelphia area Success Stories • ATPA grantees and partners recovered $29M worth of stolen parts and vehicles 06 • ATPA prosecutors obtained orders for perpetrators to pay $1.2M in restitution Restitution is important -- it’s money repaid to victims, money saved by insurance companies, and therefore, savings to our citizens. Prevention and Public Education Insurers that do business in Pennsylvania fund ATPA. It is a smart investment. For every dollar collected from insurance companies since inception, the Authority has realized a return on investment of seven dollars (in vehicles and parts recovered and 08 reduced auto thefts).

  • Small-Town Mafia: Organized Crime in New Kensington, Pennsylvania Jeanine Mazak-Kahne Indiana University of Pennsylvania N a Co
    small-Town mafia: organized Crime in new KensingTon, Pennsylvania Jeanine Mazak-Kahne Indiana University of Pennsylvania n a cool November day in 1957 New York State troopers sent several well-dressed men scurrying into the countryside Osurrounding the Apalachin home of alleged mob boss Joseph “the Barber” Barbara. While many of the men who traveled there claimed to have come to visit their friend Barbara, it was alleged to be more of a meeting of leading national Mafiosi and their representatives. Among those darting into the woods was Gabriel “Kelly” Mannarino from the small western Pennsylvania town of New Kensington. The actions of the New York State police that day called into question the investigative priorities of the Federal Bureau of Investigation which, under Director J. Edgar Hoover, had long denied the Mafia’s existence, despite Senate investigations pointing to the contrary.1 The Apalachin incident forced Hoover to act, and in doing so he created the Top Hoodlum Program, which required all FBI field offices to maintain surveillance on their region’s “top ten hoodlums.”2 pennsylvania history: a journal of mid-atlantic studies, vol. 78, no. 4, 2011.
