Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno refuses to approve Mount Carmel Society Club’s licenses amid Latin Kings federal probe

By: Stephanie Barry

Mayor Domenic Sarno has announced that he plans to withhold his signature for the Mount Carmel Society Club’s entertainment license after the new year. The announcement comes on the heels of revelations contained in a 190-page racketeering indictment out of U.S. District Court in Boston linked to the arrests of more than 60 alleged leaders and associates of the Latin Kings.

Included in the FBI narrative were references to recorded meetings of Latin Kings leaders and other gang members holding summits at the club, located at 13 Winthrop St. and historically has been considered an Italian-American social club with its fair share of influence from organized crime over the years.
