Marvin Rudnick
Rudnick subsequently lost his job when he refused to drop the investigation into MCA.
Marvin Rudnick was a U.S. Attorney who supervised the FBI wiretap investigation of MCA. He, along with FBI agent Thomas Gates and Richard Stavin of the Organized Crime Strike Force, believed that MCA had been penetrated by organized crime, based on the wiretaps.[1]
Rudnick subsequently lost his job when he refused to drop the investigation into MCA. The wiretaps were later sealed by the DOJ, and no prosecutions were pursued. The Los Angeles Organized Crime Strike Force was disbanded, and Rudnick's efforts to expose the alleged organized crime penetration of MCA were thwarted.[1]
After losing his job, Rudnick eventually had part of his story told in the 1993 book, Stiffed: A True Story of MCA, The Music Business, and the Mafia by William Knoedelseder.[1]
