Historically, the American mafia wielded significant power and influence since at least Prohibition, up to the late 1970s, after Nixon signed the RICO Act. However, a series of (seemingly avoidable) blunders caused the mob to be plainly exposed to the American public, which prompted a previously apathetic J. Edgar Hoover to act aggressively against them, as well as John McLellan and a young Robert F. Kennedy. But, what if the mob hadn't been exposed in the way that it had IOTL? What if they were able to continue their criminal activity, unimpeded by the nation's top cops, with the concept of "organized crime" remaining something of an urban legend?
