National panel urges states to create anti organized crime bodies
A federally funded advisory panel recommends each state form new authorities to combat organized crime. It calls for special prosecutors, statewide grand juries, immunities, electronic surveillance laws, campaign finance reforms, stiffer sentences, and removal procedures, plus a statewide organized crime council. It critiques Texas for lacking investigative power and cites LEAA backing, noting mob fronts in hotels, race tracks, freight firms, airlines, and other sectors. The report urges removing prosecutors from politics and making assistant prosecutors full time.
