--------
In this VladTV interview, former FBI figure Frank Storey breaks down how the Commission Case weakened the old Five Families power structure and why the Mafia no longer controls America the way it once did. Storey explains that organized crime’s real strength came from influence over legitimate labor unions and businesses, including the International Longshoremen’s Association and the Teamsters, with names like Jimmy Hoffa and Frank Sheeran tied to that era.
The conversation also covers today’s mob activity—loan sharking, bookmaking and extortion—plus John Alite’s recent legal trouble, the Gambino family after John Gotti, and why surveillance, technology and law enforcement have changed the game. Storey reflects on Mafia history in Las Vegas, Lucky Luciano, Bugsy Siegel, the Flamingo Hotel and the corporate takeover of casinos after the era dramatized in Casino.
Storey also previews his upcoming book on the FBI’s war against the Mafia.
