070: Mike Leyden - Extortion, Philly Mob and City Councilman

from FBI Case File Review · host Jerri Williams

Retired agent Mike Leyden reviews an extortion case that resulted in the conviction of Nicodemo Scarfo Sr., Philadelphia City Councilman Leland Beloff, and Beloff's administrative assistant, Robert Rego, for attempting to extort $1 million from Willard Rouse, a Philadelphia developer. During the investigation, two "made men," Nicholas Caramandi and Thomas DelGiorno, became government witnesses and their testimony eventually led to indictment and conviction of the entire hierarchy of the Scarfo Family.  Check out episode show notes, photos, and related articles.  https://jerriwilliams.com/mike-leyden-extortion-philly-mob-city-councilman/     Buy me a coffee - https://www.buymeacoffee.com/JerriWilliams Join my Reader Team to get the FBI Reading Resource - Books about the FBI, written by FBI agents, the 20 clichés about the FBI Reality Checklist, and keep up to date on the FBI in books, TV, and movies via my monthly email.
