Etti Alon
The Israeli banking industry changed forever in April 2002 when Etti Alon walked into the police’s fraud squad headquarters. The now-former deputy chief of investments at Trade Bank of Israel had a huge secret, one that she’d been keeping close to her heart for half a decade.
Abergil Family
The Abergil family had a vast, worldwide criminal empire in the early 2000s. Based in Israel, they were led by Itzhak Abergil and his brothers Meir and Avraham after their brother Yaakov was taken out.
Jerusalem Gang
The Abergil family may have been feared and powerful, but they weren’t the only criminal organization in Israel. There was another big player called the Jerusalem Gang, which was led by Gabi ben Harosh.
Intercontinental Operation
Gabi was under house arrest for two years before he flipped on his former friends. He detailed how they moved money from Trade Bank in Israel to the United States. Gabi was in charge of the lending bank in the states.
LA Bust
The arrest felt like a long time coming, but it had far-reaching consequences in the Israeli crime world for years to come. In July 2002, the LA police executed a bust of three dealers.
Trade Bank
The money that Etti stole from Trade Bank found its way into the hands of many important and powerful business people in Israel and Los Angeles, but it wasn’t the legal way they were used to.
Allure of Thrill
It wasn’t hard for the Abergil family to gain a stronghold in Israel, even without the money from Trade Bank. Gambling is illegal in Israel, so many criminal masterminds saw an opportunity to make a quick buck and meet a growing need for many people.
Ofer’s Problem
Ofer had a problem. There wasn’t an underworld casino that he didn’t visit in Israel. He even traveled internationally to gamble, and he owed everyone a lot of money. It got so bad that the criminal underworld bosses had a meeting to discuss his debts.
Missing Millions
Millions of shekels are still missing, floating around on the gray market. At one point, the National Fraud Investigation Unit only recovered 38 million shekels from the shadow market. It is hard to trace exactly where the money went or how to get it back.
Aftermath
In the end, Etti and her brother Ofer paid for their crimes. Etti received a 17-year sentence. She petitioned for early release, and though the state initially denied her request, it was eventually granted.
