Excerpt
Executive Summary: Russian organized crime figures continue to migrate to the United States from the former Soviet Union and enjoy ease of travel with falsified passports or visas easily obtained in Russia through bribery. With no way for authorities to check their criminal histories, these criminals routinely enter the United States. Russian organized crime groups have established criminal networks in several major California cities including Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, and Sacramento. These criminals are involved in sophisticated crimes and take advantage of our bureaucracy to mask their crimes and delay detection. One such case involved the staging of auto accidents and a false billing scheme. A suspect was arrested in March 1996 for devising and establishing a criminal network that defrauded the insurance industry out of an estimated $20 million. Russian organized crime groups are diverse in their criminal activities and have formed alliances with other major organized crime groups such as the Colombian cartels, the La Cosa Nostra (LCN), and other Italian organized crime groups.
