yes in fact police do need to be stronger when it comes to policing and taking down criminal organizations but in turn police/judges/DAs need the fear of god aswell.
Here’s my suggestion:
Add back rico make it extremely difficult where you gotta run the faction like a retard for it to even be possible. (connected banks, high ranking member snitching for ic reasons, etc)
Increase phone/building wiretapping by adding a physical item that can be deployed and hidden
bigger legal hoops to jump through (registered business banks, proof of income, maybe an aggregate tax rate) this can also bring the possibility of tax fraud being an actual crime.
tldr be a smart criminal and loose lips sink ships
Government consequences for trying to take down a mafia org:
Detectives/Officers/DAs that go after (arrest, warrant, etc) a caporegime or above (felony+) are pk active to the faction.
DAs and Judges can now be bribed to drop charges or throw a case (10k for every year)
tldr you wanna rp like your taking down the mob be prepared to fear for your life and this is america home of bribery.
