organized crime

Read a random definition: backdate

A quick definition of organized crime:

Organized crime refers to a group of criminals who work together to commit illegal activities, such as selling drugs or running illegal businesses. These criminals are organized and have a leader who controls their actions. They rely on these illegal activities to make money.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Organized crime refers to a group of criminals who work together to commit illegal activities for financial gain. These activities are usually controlled by a central syndicate.

Examples: Organized crime can include activities such as drug trafficking, money laundering, extortion, and human trafficking. For example, a group of individuals may work together to smuggle drugs into a country and distribute them to local dealers for profit. They may also use violence or threats to force businesses to pay them protection money.

Explanation: Organized crime is different from individual criminal acts because it involves a group of people working together in a structured and coordinated way. The goal of organized crime is to make money through illegal means, and the syndicate that controls the activities often uses violence or intimidation to maintain their power. These criminal activities can have a significant impact on society, including contributing to drug addiction, violence, and corruption.

You remind me of a friend of mine from back in the day. They came in at the top of their class at a T14 but reapplied before doing this to get HYS. They still didn't get it the second time with perfect stats. That stuff is competitive and what does it matter anyway? Just saying!

Haha didn't realize you were admitted at Cornell not why I'm saying this haha. I've also seen a few people get H and one person get Y the second time around. Hopefully things just work out now but if it doesn't go your way the second time don't worry ✌️ you 🫵 are amazing! For the record though my housemate's friend who graduated from Cornell has an appellate clerkship.
