RICO — Conspiracy (18 U.S.C. Sec.1962(d)) is a law that allows federal prosecution of individuals who are part of a conspiracy to commit a variety of different crimes, including racketeering, wire fraud, mail fraud, money laundering, and other related offenses. Under this law, prosecutors must prove that the defendant was part of an “enterprise”, which is defined as any group of individuals who are associated with one another to commit a pattern of criminal activity. The defendant must also have participated in the conspiracy in some way, such as agreeing to commit the offense, planning the offense, committing the offense, or attempting to commit the offense. There are two main types of RICO — Conspiracy offenses: single-victim conspiracies and multiple-victim conspiracies. Single-victim conspiracies involve only one victim and are prosecuted under 18 U.S.C. Sec.1962(d)(1). Multiple-victim conspiracies involve two or more victims and are prosecuted under 18 U.S.C. Sec.1962(d)(2). In either case, the prosecution must prove that the defendant was part of an enterprise, that the defendant agreed to commit the offense, and that the offense was committed in furtherance of the enterprise.
