The Black Tuna Gang was a Miami-based marijuana smuggling organization active in the 1970s, led by Robert Platshorn and Robert Meinster. The group never used the name themselves; it was coined by media based on their gold medallion emblem. They imported an estimated 500 tons of marijuana over 16 months using sophisticated methods, including monitoring police communications. The gang was dismantled by a joint FBI-DEA operation, with eight members convicted and sentenced to lengthy prison terms.
