Florida ? A 96-year-old mobster accused of overseeing robberies, money laundering and bank fraud for the Genovese crime family pleaded guilty to racketeering conspiracy Wednesday, but because of his age, he likely won’t be sent to prison.

Albert “The Old Man” Facchiano, whose arrest record dates back 75 years, used a cane in court and needed a special headset to hear the questions from U.S. District Judge James Cohn. His attorney said he sees a doctor four times a week for back pain, arthritis and other ailments.

“He couldn’t have stood trials in both Florida and New York on this,” attorney Brian McComb said.

Facchiano pleaded guilty to a Florida charge of racketeering conspiracy and a New York charge of conspiracy to tamper with a witness.

From at least 2000 to 2003, Facchiano supervised people who committed extortion, robberies, money laundering and bank fraud, according to prosecutors.

The charges he pleaded guilty to carry a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison and $500,000 in fines, but under the plea agreement, prosecutors recommended Facchiano serve house arrest.
