| Zusammenfassung: | This paper analyzes the multiple affiliations of the members of 72 criminal groups investigated in Spain between 1999 and 2010. This objective has been accomplished by studying overlapping members of a sample of 2,384 subjects involved in criminal organizations. Identifying multiple affiliation subjects is supplemented by studying their profile: their function and activity in the group, their hierarchical position, their illicit activities, their conduct and their socio-demographic characteristics. The results, based on police investigations, show that a small percentage of subjects perform overlapping functions in more than one organization which includes three types of subjects: a professional profile which expertise is sought by several organizations, a criminal profile that completely lives off and for criminal activity and performs low-skilled functions in the organizations, and family facilitators that offer essential collaboration in the main tasks of organizations. |
