Charles Luciano was arrested and convicted for being the leader of the largest prostitution ring in the united states. He was sentenced to 30 to 50 years in prison.

The entire case was seemingly exaggerated to get rid of him quickly and surely and the prostitution charge was the easiest to win for Thomas E Dewey who seemed to have a personal vendetta on the entire mafia.

Interestingly enough, during WWII, the US wanted to make sure that no Nazi attacks would come through the ports of NYC, where so many ships unload its impossible to search most of them. They needed help, and reached out to none other than Lucky Luciano, who was given deportation to Italy in lieu of his prison sentence.

Lucky never even got off the plane in Italy, flying right back to Cuba, and staying their until the government forced him out.
