Antifa and RICO : or, everything you wanted to know about RICO, but were afraid to ask
Ken White, an attorney's attorney, famously says "It's not RICO. It's never RICO."
He's only half joking. The RICO statute is a powerful, but often misused too, even by attorney's who, to borrow Ken White's phrasing, seem to using it as the equivalent of an angry emoji, to show that this case is REALLY serious .... lord have mercy.
It's so bad, that most judges have special rules for RICO, to require an attorney arguing it to show a much more thorough basis for the allegation then might otherwise be required.
So "RICO" is not a magic word. And it is misused. But, what is RICO? And how would you use it legitimately? Does RICO apply to Antifa?
Today, we discuss Antifa and their recent activities in Portland. We also go over the RICO statute in depth, and discuss exactly what this RICO thing is, and why it is never RICO .... except for the 58 times that it is.
Trigger warning for Ken White - we are going to do the RICO today. Brace yourself, my friend :)
