RICO

RICO (Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act) is a federal law that provides for extended criminal penalties and a civil cause of action for acts performed as part of an ongoing criminal organization. RICO law is specifically directed at individuals or organizations involved in systematic, long-term illegal activities.

Under RICO, a person who is a member of an enterprise that has committed any two of 35 crimes—27 federal crimes and 8 state crimes—within a 10-year period can be charged with racketeering. An individual can be charged with racketeering under RICO statutes if, within a 10-year time frame as part of a criminal enterprise, they commit two crimes from a list of 35 detailed in the act.
