Statutes of Limitations by VaccaD

Question 6

Racketeering charges sometimes provide a way to extend statutes of limitation, since the statute of limitations for racketeering begins with the racketeers' last offense. In 2014, prosecutors (unsuccessfully) brought charges against Vincent Asaro, accusing him of being part of a gang that (among other offenses) pulled off what was then the largest cash heist in American history, the 1978 robbery of a cargo facility belonging to WHAT AIRLINE? The heist was a key element in the movie Goodfellas.
