34 members of the Luchese crime family were arraigned on Monday in New Jersey with charges stemming from illegal sports betting.  Charges include racketeering and money laundering.  All have plead Not Guilty.

The suspects were named in an indictment stemming from a state investigation into the operation, which is said to have handled billions of dollars in wagers, primarily on sporting events, and relied on extortion and violence to collect debts.

Among the defendants who appeared in court in New Jersey Monday was Nicodemo Scarfo Jr., son of former Philadelphia crime boss Nicodemo "Little Nicky" Scarfo.

Also charged are Joseph DiNapoli of Scarsdale, N.Y., and Matthew Madonna of Seldon, N.Y., alleged members of the Lucchese family's three-man ruling panel.
