Harold Okimoto is a figure linked to Robert Booth Nichols and alleged organized crime activities, particularly the Yakuza. He is described as a 67-year-old car dealer in Hawaii and believed by some sources to be a top Japanese organized crime figure based in Hawaii, acting as a top agent in the Yakuza overseas.[1]
Michael Riconosciuto claimed that Robert Booth Nichols was under Okimoto's influence and referred to Nichols as Okimoto's "god-son." Okimoto was also represented as an intelligence person who had worked under Frank Carlucci for years, and reportedly performed services for the U.S. government during World War II, for which he was rewarded.[1]
The writer Cheri Seymour wrote that Okimoto's company, Island Tobacco, sold cigarettes at the Casino du Liban, which was controlled by the Syrian mob and used as a front by narcotics people.[1]
