File- In this July 23, 2001 photo, reputed boss of the Philadelphia mob Joseph "Uncle Joe" Ligambi, center, along with two unidentified men exit federal court in Philadelphia. Federal prosecutors abandoned their pursuit of the reputed Philadelphia mob boss on Monday Jan. 27, 2014, after he twice beat charges in a gambling and racketeering case. Ligambi could have faced a third trial after jurors acquitted him last week of witness tampering while deadlocking on three other charges. But prosecutors filed a motion seeking to dismiss the remaining counts, a rare setback in their decades-long campaign against the Philadelphia mob. (AP Photo/Philadelphia Daily News, Alejandro A.
