Organized Crime: The Hit On Vincent "Mad Dog" Coll (9/17/24)

Charles "Charlie the Wop" Gargotta, a feared enforcer for Kansas City's Mafia, met a violent end on January 20, 1946, in a calculated hit at the Last Chance Saloon. Gargotta had risen through the ranks of the Mafia under boss John Lazia and later became a loyal lieutenant to Charles Binaggio, whose political ambitions threatened the delicate balance of power within the Kansas City underworld. As tensions grew between Binaggio's faction and the old guard, led by Joseph DiGiovanni, Gargotta found himself in the crosshairs. On that fateful night, he and his associate, Louis Ratner, were gunned down in a swift, ruthless attack. The murders shocked the city and signaled the beginning of the end for Binaggio’s reign, which collapsed four years later when he too was assassinated. Gargotta's death remains unsolved, a chilling reminder of the violent power struggles that defined organized crime in Kansas City.(commercial at 8:07)to contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

William Queen, a decorated ATF agent, undertook one of the most dangerous undercover operations in U.S. history by infiltrating the notorious Mongols Motorcycle Club in the late 1990s. For nearly two years, he lived as "Billy St. John," gaining the gang's trust and rising through the ranks, all while secretly documenting their criminal activities. His mission culminated in "Operation Black Rain," a massive raid that led to the indictment of 54 Mongol members on charges of racketeering, drug trafficking, and murder. While Queen's work severely crippled the Mongols, it came at great personal cost, forcing him into hiding due to threats on his life. Despite this, his courageous efforts helped dismantle a powerful criminal organization and solidified his legacy as one of the most daring undercover agents in history.(commercial at 8:23)to contact me:[email protected] a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Kristina Khorram is Sean "Diddy" Combs' Chief of Staff and has worked closely with him for over a decade, playing a significant role in his business operations. Recently, her involvement has come under scrutiny as part of the federal investigation into Diddy's alleged sex trafficking and racketeering activities. Khorram has been described as a central figure in facilitating some of Diddy's alleged criminal operations, with comparisons to Ghislaine Maxwell due to her role in managing certain illicit activities. She has not been formally charged but remains a key figure in the investigation.to contact me:[email protected]:Sean 'Diddy' Combs exec - once called his 'Ghislaine Maxwell' - could hold secrets of alleged sex crime empire | Daily Mail OnlineBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Sean "Diddy" Combs was arrested on September 16, 2024, in Manhattan after a federal grand jury indicted him on charges related to sex trafficking and racketeering. His arrest follows several months of investigations into his alleged involvement in an extensive criminal enterprise dating back to 2008. According to the indictment, Combs is accused of orchestrating "Freak Offs," which were drug-fueled sexual performances involving both female victims and male sex workers. These events allegedly took place over several days, and the indictment claims that Combs used threats, violence, and coercion to ensure participation.Combs' legal troubles escalated after federal raids on his properties in Los Angeles and Miami earlier in the year, where authorities seized evidence, including narcotics, videos of the alleged performances, firearms, and over 1,000 bottles of baby oil and lubricant. Prosecutors have stated that the case involves over 50 witnesses and victims, with the possibility of more coming forward as the investigation progresses.Combs pleaded not guilty to the charges and has been denied bail. His legal team maintains that he is innocent, calling the allegations exaggerated and stemming from consensual relationships. The case is still unfolding, with Combs facing the possibility of up to 20 years in prison if convicted on all charges.(commercial at 9:11)to contact me:[email protected]:Takeaways from the racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking indictment against Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs | CNNBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit rejected Ghislaine Maxwell's attempt to overturn her sex trafficking conviction on September 17, 2024. The court upheld the 20-year sentence and dismissed Maxwell's main argument that she should have been protected by a 2008 non-prosecution agreement made between Jeffrey Epstein and Florida prosecutors. The court made it clear that this agreement didn't apply to her case in New York.Maxwell also challenged the trial’s fairness, claiming a juror's failure to disclose his own history of sexual abuse biased the outcome. The court didn't buy that either, stating that the omission wasn’t deliberate and had no bearing on the trial's integrity.Ultimately, the court concluded that Maxwell played a pivotal role in facilitating Epstein's predatory behavior, and the sentence reflects the gravity of her crimes.(commercial at 10:13)to contact me:[email protected]:Jeffrey Epstein deal didn't save Ghislaine Maxwell: Court (lawandcrime.com)Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.
