Vladimir Kazakov
Kazakov is considered to be a high-ranking organized crime leader, or vor v zakone (thief in law), and
one of the best-known underworld figures in the U.S with close ties to organized crime groups in Russia. He was born on March 25, 1964 in Moscow, Soviet Union to Sergei Kazakov and Nina Kazakova. Kazakov entered the U.S as a legal immigrant in 1983 with no prior criminal convictions and soon began working for the Russian mafia in New York City during the mid-1980s. He became a naturalized U.S citizen on August 14, 1998.
An idealistic and temperamental figure, Kazakov is renowned for his traditional and secretive manner, while enforcing a strict order of discipline fuelled by his own brutal behaviour which has earned him a reputation as one of the fiercest and most ruthless criminals in the U.S. In his approximately 14-year premiership as leader of a criminal organization he has since restored the codes-of-honor and guidelines of the traditional vory v zakone (thieves in law), only slightly adapting his syndicate to suit the Western world. He is generally never referred to by name, alternatively addressed as 'a-tyets' (respected father) by associates.
Kazakov has been implicated but not convicted of several offences, though he has only ever served two jail sentences. He was first incarcerated in June 1988 after being found guilty of an assault charge, and again in February 2003 after being convicted of conspiracy to commit murder.
The 1994 coup and rise of the Russkaya Bratva
It is unknown when Kazakov was entitled by criminal brotherhood as a vor v zakone (thief in law), though it is speculated to
have been between 1989 and 1992. Following his release from prison in 1989, he was later transferred to the Los Angeles branch of the Odessa Mafia where he served as a boyevik (soldier) to then-brigadir (captain) Egor Uladimov.
By April 1996 he had clearly become a moving force within the organization and thus formally succeeded Uladimov, assuming control of his regiment. Dissatisfied with the disorganized nature of the sub-group, Kazakov soon after plotted the coup that would eliminate it. Relationships with other vory v zakone (thieves in law) were delicately cultivated, enabling Kazakov to assemble an allegiant circle of support. On August 23, 1996, he orchestrated the betrayal and joint assassination of the ruling panel, including Uladimov. The event commenced a decimating war between Kazakov and his loyalists and the remaining members of the rival faction. As a result, it is believed that the Odessa Mafia leadership in the Brighton Bay area of New York City sent a band of boyeviki (soldiers) to Los Angeles in order to reinforce their debilitated branch. In September 1996, opposing brigadiri (captains), Oleg Demenok and Grigory Sergeyev, were involved in the successful New York City-backed plot to assassinate Kazakov’s cousin and second-in-command, Valentin Biryukov. Struck by seven bullets, Biryukov suffered from heavy blood loss and sustained permanent injuries, leaving him in a critical condition. He died of his injuries on September 23, 1996 despite treatment and repeated operations. As a repercussion, Kazakov initiated an absolute campaign of brutality against the Odessa Mafia with the support of his Russian allies. By early 1997, Sergeyev had been found executed leading Demenok to subsequently retreat into hiding, controlling the campaign against Kazakov correspondingly. On May 5, 1997, Demenok was finally located in a safe house in Santa Maria, California and brutally murdered by an assembly of Kazakov hit-squads, ultimately obliterating the remains of the sub-group. The war thereby soon ended with both factions declaring a ceasefire. Kazakov has since mended his relations with the Odessa Mafia under its most recent leadership.
Current position and status
The Russkaya bratva is believed to be involved in bookmaking, drug trafficking, extortion, illegal gambling, loan sharking, murder-for-hire, illegal oil trade, prostitution and racketeering. Furthermore, the syndicate is divided into four sectors through which Kazakov has reputedly imbedded an extensive network of informers throughout to instil fear in the organization and to route out any intramural opponents, though very little authenticated information is known concerning their activities and hierarchy largely due to the secrecy and codes surrounding their operations.
In February 2003, several high-ranking members of the organization were indicted with a series of charges. Kazakov was convicted of one count of conspiracy to commit murder and was sentenced to 9 years in a federal prison. He was still in full control of the syndicate during his detainment and in later years relayed orders through his son, Nikolai, who would regularly visit him. Kazakov was discharged from prison in July 2011 together with several of his top lieutenants.
Prior to Kazakov’s scheduled release, international organized crime expert and author of The Russian Mafia in America, James Finckenauer, said:
“Kazakov is the leader and founder of the organization and by implication, a model to its members. They’ve been waiting for this day to come for a very long time. The organization has long been operating in the shadows during his imprisonment, contending with many of the other criminal outfits for turf and influence in the Los Angeles area. Now with his release, I
predict that we’ll see a struggle for power in the underworld for a spot at the top of the food chain.”
