STATEMENT OF FACTS The defendants are charged with conspiracy to possess and distribute methamphetamine and heroin, along with a host of other related charges. They are accused of helping run a drug-trafficking operation focused on the distribution of these drugs while they were incarcerated in institutions run by the Oklahoma Department of Corrections. The Second Superseding Indictment, as did the first version of the indictment, accuses the defendants of being “high-ranking members of the Irish Mob Gang and its prison component, Sinn Fein” and of using the gang’s structure to facilitate their drug distribution. 1 Case 5:16-cr-00119-R Document 699 Filed 02/28/17 Page 2 of 13 The defendants have all been in pretrial detention on this matter since July 2016.

  • Gang Threat Assesment
    Texas Gang Threat Assessment A State Intelligence Estimate Produced by the Texas Joint Crime Information Center Intelligence & Counterterrorism Division Texas Department of Public Safety In collaboration with federal, state, and local law enforcement and criminal justice agencies August 2015 1 THIS PAGE INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK 2 Executive Summary The key analytic judgments of this assessment are: • Gangs continue to represent a significant public safety threat to Texas due to their propensity for violence and heightened level of criminal activity. Of the incarcerated gang members within Texas Department of Criminal Justice prisons, over 60 percent are serving a sentence for violent crimes, including robbery (24 percent), homicide (16 percent), and assault/terroristic threat (15 percent). We assess there are likely more than 100,000 gang members in Texas. • The Tier 1 gangs in Texas for 2015 are Tango Blast and Tango cliques (estimated 15,000 members), Texas Syndicate (estimated 3,400 members), Texas Mexican Mafia (estimated 4,700 members), Mara Salvatrucha (MS-13) (estimated 800 members), and Latin Kings (estimated 2,100 members). These groups pose the greatest gang threat to Texas due to their relationships with Mexican cartels, high levels of transnational criminal activity, level of violence, and overall statewide presence. • Gangs in Texas remain active in both human smuggling and human trafficking operations. Gang members associated with human smuggling have direct relationships with alien smuggling organizations (ASOs) and Mexican cartels. These organizations were involved in and profited from the recent influx of illegal aliens crossing the border in the Rio Grande Valley in 2014. Gang members involved in human trafficking, including commercial sex trafficking and compelling prostitution of adults and minors, exploit their victims through force, fraud or coercion, including recruiting and grooming them with false promises of affection, employment, or a better life.

  • The Irish-American Gangster in Film
    Farrell 1 THE IRISH-AMERICAN GANGSTER IN FILM By Professor Steven G. Farrell 1 Farrell 2 When The Godfather was released in the early seventies, it effectively created a myth of the virtually unbeatable Italian crime family for the American public that endured for the remainder of the century. This film also effectively eliminated all other white ethnic organized gangs from the silver screen, as well as from the public’s eye. Hollywood, as we shall see, had their history wrong in this case. The Italian Mafia was never as invincible as Hollywood depicted it on film, nor did they always have everything their own way when it came to illegal activities. It wasn’t until the close of the last century that the film industry began to expose the old-time hoods as being fallible and besieged on all sides from new criminal elements connected with newly arrived immigrant groups. The Cubans, Russians and the Colombian hoods, along with the longer established African and Mexican American gangs, had begun to nibble away at the turf long controlled by the almighty Italian mob. As the paradigm of the urban underworld began to shift to reflect the new realities of the global economy, another look at the past by historians and Hollywood is revealing that the Italian gang never had absolute power as it was once commonly believed. The Irish hoodlums, to single out the subject of this paper, were actually engaged in gangland activities years before the arrival of the Italians and the Irish also competed with the Italians up until recently.

  • Hyphenated Identity of Irish-Americans in Gangster Film Genre
    Journal of Foreign Languages, Cultures and Civilizations December 2015, Vol. 3, No. 2, pp. 1-9 ISSN 2333-5882 (Print) 2333-5890 (Online) Copyright © The Author(s). All Rights Reserved. Published by American Research Institute for Policy Development DOI: 10.15640/jflcc.v3n2a1 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.15640/jflcc.v3n2a1 Hyphenated Identity of Irish-Americans in Gangster Film Genre Małgorzata Martynuska1 Abstract The 1990s marks the emergence of a phenomenon in which third generation white ethnic Americans began to reclaim their roots. That was also the decade when the revival of the Irish-American gangster in Hollywood started. This article analyses the ethnic portrayal of Irish-Americans in the gangster film genre from the period of 1990-2010. The films illustrate the process of the shaping of the Irish-American identity by both the American influences and the ethnic environment. Protagonists’ actions are driven by tribal codes of behaviour, loyalty and revenge, all presented with the traditional Hibernian heritage and Catholic faith. The Irish-American characters who hope to define their own identity and assimilate into the American mainstream, soon find out that they cannot escape their ethnic background. Their identity crisis is rooted in inner conflict resulting from the betrayal of Irish heritage in the quest for social acceptance in the American society. Key words: Irish Americans, gangster film genre, identity, heritage, ethnicity 1. Introduction “American urban ethnic history begins with Irish Catholic immigrants. […] A steady stream became a flood during the years of the Great Famine, 1845-49, when more than a million refugees from hunger, disease, and despair found their way to America.

ISSN 1070-8286 Journal of Criminal Justice and Popular Culture, 8(2) (2001) 145- 148 KILLER JEWS* by Rachel Rubin University of Massachusetts-Boston Book: But He Was Good to His Mother: The Lives and Crimes of Jewish Gangsters. Author: Robert A. Rockaway Publisher: Gefen Books, Year: 2000 Book: The Purple Gang: Organized Crime in Detroit, 1910-1945. Author: Paul R. Kavieff Publisher: Barricade Books, Year: 2000 The heyday of the Jewish gangster is long over, but the imagined ethnic mobster has never ceased to fascinate mass American audiences. The past decade or two in particular have seen a fresh burst of popular interest in this shady, colorful figure, largely playing out upon the screen and producing a spate of movies about Jewish gangs – Billy Bathgate (1991), Bugsy (1991), Eight Men Out (1988), Miller's Crossing (1990), Lansky (1999), Once upon a Time in America (1984), and Little Odessa (1994), among others. Although audiences' appetites for fictional gangsters have not abated, a glance at historical and journalistic writing spanning the twentieth century about actual Jewish gangsters reveals that the attitude of the Jewish community toward its mobsters has evolved considerably. The first written reactions in the Jewish American press to the activities of Jewish criminals shows pained bewilderment: How could such a thing be reconciled with a moral code that supposedly made violent crime impossible? In addition, many Jews feared that the delinquencies of a few "bad" Jews would bring shame upon the entire group, and it was a common reaction to ignore or hide the question of Jewish crime.

Blinky was family to Cornfed; they had known each other for years, both inside and outside of prison. “So if you keep your nose clean, you get on parole, you’re going on a mission, right?” Cornfed asked Blinky.
