In 1969, President Nixon summarized the frustration felt by many law enforcement personnel in fighting one particularly entrenched criminal enterprise: though [t]he arrest, conviction, and imprisonment of a Mafia lieutenant can curtail operations, if the property of organized crime remains, new leaders will step forward to take the place of those we jail. Organizations now faced criminal sanction for felonies that traditionally only an individual could commit.5 To keep ringleaders incapacitated for longer, RICO beefed up the prison terms for those responsible for the enterprise's criminal activity.6 Finally, RICO gave law enforcement personnel a new remedy that would attack [the criminal enterprise's] source of economic power itself'7: criminal forfeiture.
