The Las Vegas crime family, also named the Las Vegas Syndicate, the Siegel crime family, or the Siegel crime syndicate, was a crime family created by New York Jewish American mobster Benjamin "Bugsy" Siegel in the early 1930s. Siegel ran Los Angeles and later Las Vegas' illegal gambling and prostitution rings with his lieutenants Jack Dragna, Mickey Cohen, David Berman and Moe Sedway. After Siegel's murder in June of 1947, his chief lieutenant Mickey Cohen inherited his rackets which caused a power struggle between him and Jack Dragna, another lieutenant in Siegel's organization. The organization was allied with the Five Mafia Families—specifically the Luciano crime family—in New York, the Chicago Outfit in Chicago, and the Dragna crime family in Los Angeles. Siegel's family was the primary target for organized crime police squads, particularly the LAPD squad ran by Police Chief Bill Parker called the Gangster Squad. Siegel's family was ruled by Cohen from 1947 to 1961, in which he was arrested and convicted on charges of tax evasion twice and after he was convicted a second time in 1961, the family essentially decimated with its administration either in prison or deceased. Since the family's decimation, Vegas has been considered "open territory" for all Mafia families to control and own casinos. == Origins == 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Las Vegas crime family」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
