How to use racketeering in a sentence?

  1. Anthony DeStefano:

    I'm not saying the mob can't do anything or can't hurt you, but the big rackets have been sort of tied up by the feds and the police. They don't exist. The big labor racketeering rackets, the big concrete syndicates, the big garment industry rackets don't exist anymore. You have local businesses, like the restaurants, maybe an auto body shop, that could be muscled by the mob. That's where it still works. But the old-time stuff, forget it.

  2. Randy Mastro:

    This is a racketeering scheme so audacious it would make the mob blush.
