The Continuing Criminal Enterprise Statute (commonly referred to as CCE Statute or Kingpin Statute) is a United States federal law that targets large-scale drug traffickers who are responsible for long-term and elaborate drug conspiracies. Unlike the RICO Act, which covers a wide range of organized crime enterprises, the CCE statute covers only major narcotics organizations. CCE is codified as Chapter 13 of Title 21 of the United States Code, 21 U.S.C. § 848. The statute makes it a federal crime to commit or conspire to commit a continuing series of felony violations of the Comprehensive Drug Abuse Prevention and Control Act of 1970 when such acts are taken in concert with five or more other persons. For conviction under the statute, the offender must have been an organizer, manager, or su

dbo:abstract
  • Das Continuing Criminal Enterprise Statute (Umgangssprachlich auch CCE Statute oder The Kingpin Statute) ist ein Bundesgesetz der Vereinigten Staaten. Es richtet sich gegen Drogenhändler, welche für Handel in bedeutenden Rahmen verantwortlich sind. Anders als das RICO-Gesetz, welches gegen das organisierte Verbrechen allgemein gerichtet ist, richtet sich das CCE-Gesetz nur gegen große Organisationen, welche in den Drogenhandel involviert sind. Das CCE-Gesetz ist als Kapitel 13 des 21 Titels des United States Code 21 U.S.C. § 848 kodifiziert. Durch das Gesetz wird es zu einer Bundesstraftat, wenn eine Gruppe von fünf oder mehr Personen es plant oder ausführt, den organisiert und wiederholt zu verletzen. Damit eine Person aufgrund des CCE-Gesetzes verurteilt werden kann, muss sie diese Verschwörung zum Drogenhandel organisiert, geleitet oder aber dabei eine andere Führungsrolle innegehabt haben. Weiterhin muss sie aus dem Drogenhandel einen substantiellen finanziellen Gewinn oder andersartige Vorteile gezogen haben. Die vorgesehenen Strafen reichen von einer Mindest-Freiheitsstrafe über 20 Jahre bis zu einer Verurteilung zum Tod. (de)

For conviction under the statute, the offender must have been an organizer, manager, or supervisor of the continuing operation and have obtained substantial income or resources from the drug violations. The sentence for a first CCE conviction is a mandatory minimum of twenty years' imprisonment (with a maximum of life imprisonment), a fine of not more than $2 million, and the forfeiture of profits and any interest in the enterprise. Under the so-called "super kingpin" provision added as subsection (b) to the CCE statute in 1984, a person convicted of being a "principal" administrator, organizer, or leader of a criminal enterprise that either involves a large amount of narcotics (at least 300 times the quantity that would trigger a five-year mandatory-minimum sentence for possession) or generates a large amount of money (at least $10 million in gross receipts during a single year) must serve a mandatory life sentence. Anyone engaging in a continuing criminal enterprise who intentionally kills a person or causes an intentional killing may be sentenced to death. Probation, parole, and suspension of the sentence are prohibited. (en)
