Another Philly Mobster Sentenced for Illegal Gambling, Loan Sharking

South Philadelphia mobster, Martin Angelina, 50, has been sentenced to nearly five year in a federal prison for racketeering related to loan sharking and illegal gambling.

Angelina had already plead guilty last month to a racketeering conspiracy and admitted to using extortion to collect on loans.

Angelina was among 13 mobsters and associates indicted with acting mob boss Joseph "Uncle Joe" Ligambi.

Ligambi and seven others are scheduled for trial on Oct. 9 before U.S. District Judge Eduardo C. Robreno, who sentenced Angelina.
