Complex Criminal Litigation: Prosecuting Drug Enterprises and Organized Crime, Fouth Edition provides practitioners and others interested in the federal criminal justice system with a comprehensive analysis of the arsenal of federal laws that provide federal prosecutors the means to combat criminal organizations, their leadership (i.e., the so-called "kingpins") and their infrastructure. These statutes include the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO); the Continuing Criminal Enterprise or CCE statute; the Money Laundering Control Act; federal firearms statutes; and criminal and civil forfeiture laws that permit the seizure and forfeiture of the profits and instrumentalities of illegal enterprises. Further, the treatise includes an analysis of the principal legal issues that federal prosecutors and defense attorneys need to consider in handling long-term, complex criminal conspiracies that frequently involve multiple and diverse criminal acts, from the rules relating to grand jury secrecy, granting immunity, bail, criminal discovery, and all points in between. Finally, because organized criminal activity respects no national boundaries, the treatise includes a comprehensive discussion of international criminal law, including extraterritorial jurisdiction and extradition. Criminal trial attorneys involved in litigating complex criminal cases will benefit greatly from reading this treatise.
Jimmy Gurulé, a law professor at Notre
Dame Law School, is a widely respected expert in criminal law, anti-money

the U.S. Department of Justice and served in a variety of capacities there for

U.S. Virgin Islands, and Resident Legal Advisor in Moscow. For 10 years, he
directed the investigation and prosecution of high-profile federal cases
involving international and domestic terrorism. He subsequently joined the U.S.
Department of Treasury, where he held the position of Senior Advisor and Chief
of Staff to the Undersecretary of the Treasury for Enforcement. Prior to coming
to Ave Maria, Professor Bonner served as a Senior Advisor in the United States
Department of Homeland Security’s Office of International Affairs, where he
oversaw the Department’s activities within the Group of 8 (G8) countries. He
also taught as an adjunct professor of law at Georgetown University Law Center
for 13 years.

"Professor Gurulé has written the type of comprehensive but accessible reference work much needed, but rarely found, by practitioners in complex criminal cases. His chapter on money laundering is destined to become the go-to guide for laywers in this field. His chapters on international and transnational criminal investigations plainly decipher an often perplexing area of litigation. I only wish I'd had this book when I was a prosecutor."
- Duncan DeVille, Former Assistant U.S. Attorney, Organized Crime Strike Force, Los Angeles, Former Anti-Money Laundering Practice Director, Booz Allen Hamilton, Adjunct Professor Law, Georgetown University
