Among the defendants who appeared in court in Morristown on 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.
An indictment alleges a litany of offenses under the racketeering charge, including gambling, theft, aggravated assault and bribery.
