REPORT BY THE


Comptroller General


OF THE UNITED STATES




Stronger Federal Effort Needed In Fight

Against Organized Crime





Organized crime is flourishing despite an improved
strike force program. The Department of Justice
ha. successfully indicted and prosecuted many high
lev, I crime figures, but a stronger Federal attack is
nee ded.

G O recommends that the Attorney General:

   -Establish an executive committee in each
   strike force to ensure that Federal efforts are
   focused, coordinated, and directed.

   Concentrate the limited resources of the
   strike forces on indepth investigations and
   prosecutions of high-level organized crime
   figures, and transfer uncomplicated cases to
   U.S. Attorneys' offices.

   -Emphasize the use of case initiation reports
   and implementation of an evaluation system.
In addition, Congress needs to amend the Racket-
eei Influenced and Corrupt Organizations statute
to help assist the Federal fight against organized
cri e activities.
