Am i missing something? Have these guys been convicted of any criminal doings yet? or is this just a civil proceeding from the start.


also, the RICO thing is a bit far leaning, as it seems to be just these 2 guys involved in the actual scheme, anyone else was an unknowing participant. that doesn't mean ML isn't liable for some negligence, but i fail to see where more than 2 people counts as a RICO predicate, let alone a conspiracy.
In layman's terms, suit alleges that the PPC were/are a criminal organization. No previous RICO conviction is necessary to file this suit. Guilt will be decided, then civil penalties assessed or waived.

Capisce?
