Mafia and Mob Law

Mafia and mob law refers to the legal framework used to combat organized crime groups, often involved in activities like extortion, drug trafficking, and racketeering. These criminal organizations operate through a hierarchical structure, using violence and corruption to maintain control and influence. Law enforcement agencies pursue these groups through specialized investigations, following laws like the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) in the U.S. These laws help prosecute members for crimes committed as part of the group's activities, aiming to dismantle their operations and reduce their power in society.
