Four Members and Associates of the Folk Nation Gangster Disciples Convicted of Gang-Related Shootings in Brooklyn​


Four Shootings Over Two Days, With At Least 40 Shots Fired, Wounded Three Victims in Retaliation for the Theft of a Pendant Necklace​


Earlier today, a federal jury in Brooklyn convicted Lorenzo Bailey, Quincy Battice, Jean Fremont, and Oluwagbenga Agoro on multiple counts of a superseding indictment charging them with conspiracy to murder rival gang members in-aid-of racketeering, attempted murder in-aid-of racketeering, attempted assault with a dangerous weapon in-aid-of racketeering, assault with a dangerous weapon in-aid-of racketeering and possessing, brandishing and discharging a firearm during a crime of violence in connection with multiple shootings in Brooklyn in November 2020. Bailey, Battice, Fremont, and Agoro are all members or associates of the Flatbush-based Folk Nation Gangster Disciples, also known as “GD.” Bailey and Fremont are also leaders of the No Love City (NLC) subset of GD, with Fremont serving on NLC’s five-member “Steering Committee,” and Bailey serving as the set’s “Chief of Security.” Additionally, Agoro was convicted of threatening physical violence in connection with a plan to commit extortion. The verdicts followed a five-week trial before United States District Judge William F. Kuntz, II. When sentenced, the defendants each face a maximum of life in prison; Agoro and Fremont face mandatory minimum sentences of 20 years, and Bailey and Battice face mandatory minimum sentences of 10 years. Four other participants in the shootings previously pleaded guilty.
Breon Peace, United States Attorney for the Eastern District of New York, announced the verdict.
“In senseless retaliation for the theft of a gold chain, our Brooklyn communities were terrorized by gangs on a violent gun rampage that left three victims wounded in four separate shootings over a two-day period,” states United States Attorney Peace. “The residents of this district deserve to walk the streets of our communities without fear of falling victim to gun violence. Today’s verdict sends a resounding message that defendants who display a callous disregard for human life and safety will be met with the full force of the law and brought to justice.”
Mr. Peace thanked the Federal Bureau of Investigation, New York Field Office; Kings County District Attorney’s Office, and the New York City Police Department (NYPD) for their assistance in the case.
As proven at trial, the defendants participated in four shootings over a two-day period stemming from the snatching of a gold chain and pendant from Fremont by rival gang members following the filming of a music video in Brooklyn. News of the theft spread online, along with photos of the stolen necklace. In response to ridicule posted on social media about the theft, the defendants plotted retaliation against rival gang members.
The November 2020 Shootings
As proven at trial, on November 7 and 9, 2020, Agoro, Bailey, Battice, Fremont and others carried out four separate drive-by shootings in Canarsie, Prospect Park South, and Brownsville, during which three victims were wounded. In the first November 7 shooting, Agoro, Bailey, Battice, Fremont and others drove to Canarsie, where they shot at a group of individuals. The defendants then drove back to one of the shooter’s residences, before setting out again for a second shooting in Canarsie, during which two individuals were wounded in their legs. On November 9, 2020, Agoro and others drove to Prospect Park South, where they shot at a group of individuals but did not hit anyone. Later that same day, Agoro, Fremont and others drove to Brownsville for another shooting, where one 18-year-old victim was shot in the shoulder and grazed in her back.
In March 2021, Agoro went to a bodega in Flatbush. He and another individual then displayed a gun and threatened to kill the bodega clerk unless the clerk allowed the defendant and his friends to take merchandise from the store for free.
This case is being prosecuted as part of the joint federal, state, and local Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN) Program, the centerpiece of the Department of Justice’s violent crime reduction efforts. PSN is an evidence-based program proven to be effective at reducing violent crime. Through PSN, a broad spectrum of stakeholders work together to identify the most pressing violent crime problems in the community and develop comprehensive solutions to address them. As part of this strategy, PSN focuses enforcement efforts on the most violent offenders and partners with locally based prevention and reentry programs for lasting reductions in crime.
The investigations that led to these prosecutions and convictions were conducted by the FBI/NYPD Safe Streets Task Force and NYPD Gun Violence Suppression Division.
The government’s case is being handled by the Office’s Organized Crime and Gangs Section. Assistant United States Attorneys Jonathan Siegel, Dana Rehnquist, and Sophia Suarez are in charge of the prosecution with the assistance of paralegal Celine Laruelle.
The Defendants:
LORENZO BAILEY (also known as “Renzo” and “St. Clair Bailey”)
Age: 33

The following was taken from a press release distributed by the Office of the Attorney General:
Attorney General Chris Carr today announced that the office’s new statewide Gang Prosecution Unit has indicted four alleged members of the Inglewood Family Gangster Bloods in Dougherty County. This case involves a murder that took place in Albany in October 2018. Specifically, the indictment charges Demondarrius Jaquan Hicks, Jotorious Devante Cox, Mckeal Raynard Lamar, Jr., and Jamarrie Markel Harvey with violation of the Street Gang Terrorism and Prevention Act, murder, armed robbery, and other violent crimes and weapons offenses. This latest case from the Attorney General’s Gang Prosecution Unit marks the fifth indictment to be announced over the past two weeks.
“With our new Gang Prosecution Unit, we are using all resources at our disposal to combat violent gang activity in every corner of our state,” said Carr. “This is our first indictment to come out of Southwest Georgia, where our team has established a strong partnership with local law enforcement. By working hand-in-hand with those who are on the ground and in our communities, we can produce better outcomes that ultimately lead to a safer Georgia.”
The Albany Police Department’s (APD) Robbery/Homicide Unit and the APD Gang Task Force assisted in this investigation.
“The community members of Albany-Dougherty County are deserving of justice and the Albany Police Department will use all resources available to secure that justice,” said APD Chief Michael J. Persley. “We cannot afford to let people continue to cause havoc in our community. This action today by the State Attorney General’s Office shows the commitment they have to the victims. Let this be an example to others who have committed violent acts that we will prosecute them to the fullest extent of the law.”

Patrick Polidore is black


Gender: male
Race: B
Charges:
• Cruelty to Children-1st Degree
• Cruelty to Children-1st Degree
• Aggravated Assault (Felony)

This is a huge gun trafficking case, DoJ doesn't say Polidore is black.


Nassau District Attorney Donnelly said: “Illegal firearms are flooding into Long Island every day and causing untold destruction. To date, our county law enforcement partners have seized 272 weapons in 2022. As of this date last year, that number was 193. Patrick Polidore and Dennis Wolfolk are part of that problem. These defendants allegedly conspired to purchase firearms in Georgia and trafficked those weapons to Long Island, where at least 11 of them have already been recovered at crime scenes. Stemming the flow of illegal weapons into Long Island requires great partners and I thank U.S. Attorney Breon Peace; the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF); and the Nassau County Police Department for their work in bringing these alleged gun runners to justice.”

Bakersfield is infested with Bloods n Crips.


Federal indictment: West Side Crips gang bust broke down sprawling criminal enterprise​




casino shooting site


The West Side Crips of Bakersfield established an illegal casino at 333 Union Ave., Suite 105.
Felix Adamo / The Californian

When hundreds of law enforcement officials converged upon Bakersfield on Tuesday to carry out a daring pre-dawn raid to bust scores of West Side Crips gang members, they began unraveling a sprawling criminal enterprise.

The members of that gang dabbled in illegal gambling, operated a narcotics trafficking business that crossed state lines and engaged in turf wars, according to a federal indictment released this week. Some stopped short of nothing — not robbery, assault or even murder — to expand their footprint and chase that almighty dollar.
In the case of Augustus “AJ” Crawford, a 20-year-old up-and-comer in the gang, it cost him his life.

“Tryin’ to get rich. Trying to get rich. Tryin’ to get rich, man,” one man told Paul Dean, a senior member of the gang, after Crawford’s death during a wiretapped phone call disclosed in federal court documents.
The investigation, which began in February after the death of a 5-year-old who was killed in what appeared to be a gang-related shooting, targeted Crawford, among others. Investigators wiretapped phones, surveilled houses and tailed suspected gangsters and their associates.
The federal indictment document weaves a tale of Crawford’s final sordid months as he planned robberies, shot a drug dealer and took part in ultimately foiled plots to kill hundreds of rival gangsters gathered in a city park. It also paints a picture of how a single Bakersfield gang’s violence, lawlessness and disregard for life can transcend its traditional inner-city boundaries.

‘HE WAS JUST LOST’​

Crawford died the same way he lived: running from the law, in a hail of bullets.
Police and FBI officials began tapping his phone and following him starting in February when they identified him as a suspect in the killing of 5-year-old Kason Guyton.
According to a confidential informant’s report to federal investigators, the indictment said, Crawford had details about who killed Guyton and took part in a meeting with other gangsters about how to dispose of the murder weapon.
In his final weeks leading up to his Nov. 4 death, Crawford had been hatching a plan to rob a drug dealer, federal court records show. He described it in wiretapped phone calls to fellow gang member Gary Pierson as a “play,” and that if executed properly, it could pay tens of thousands of dollars in cash and drugs.
“Hell, yeah, we need that right now,” Pierson told Crawford, according to the documents.
They decided they would arrange a deal between Tommie Thomas, a higher-up West Side Crips gangster, and a dealer Crawford knew. Thomas would buy between 10 and 20 pounds of weed worth between $25,000 and $50,000, then Crawford and Pierson would follow that “middleman” dealer to his supplier, whom Crawford described as a “Mexican Paisa,” according to the documents.
“Bounce out on them right when he leaves,” Pierson suggested to Crawford, hauling off with both Thomas’ money and stolen drugs, the indictment said. All of this goes against Thomas’ instruction to leave the dealer alone, according to the indictment, because it would “burn bridges.”
Days later, on what would become Crawford’s final day, another suspected drug dealer named Manuel Cruz called Crawford and tipped him off to the location of a weed dealer and asked if he was trying “to hit this fool,” according to the indictment.
It was about 7:30 p.m. when Cruz gave Crawford the dealer’s location, which he said was at 10th and Q streets, according to an intercepted phone call. Agents saturated the area to prevent the robbery, according to the report, but couldn’t find the dealer or Crawford.
No more than 11 minutes later, the dealer had been shot, according to the indictment.
“Bro, listen, let me tell you, it got sour, I had to down him. Delete him, delete everything,” Crawford told Cruz in a 7:41 p.m. phone call. “We got in a shootout and I killed him.”
“For real?” Cruz asked.
“On God,” Crawford said.
Cruz then asked about the drugs, something investigators said displayed a “total lack of remorse” after Crawford told him he had just committed murder.
So was Crawford able to make off with the weed, Cruz asked?
“Hell, nah, they dropped out knockin',” Crawford said.
Investigators suspected Crawford asked Cruz to “delete everything” as a way to skirt Cruz’s connections to the dealer from law enforcement.
That drug dealer — whom Crawford believed he killed — had actually survived, but with serious injuries. He later told police he was waiting in his car when he was called into the house on 710 R St. along with another man, the indictment said. As he made his way in the front door, the two black men inside the house opened fire, striking him several times.
That house appeared to belong to Paul Dean, an Original Gangster with clout in the gang. He referred to it several times in wiretapped phone calls as “the spot.”
About an hour after the shooting, Crawford was asking other gang members about purchasing a new Glock 27 from them, police suspect because he had already tossed the firearm he used to shoot the drug dealer, or was planning to soon.
But before that, Crawford called Dean, frantic about what he had done.
“I need to pull up and holla at you. It got hella spunky,” Crawford said before referencing what police believe was a previous shooting both knew about. “Remember that hole in the backyard? That kind of spunky.”
They met at an AMPM gas station at Brundage Lane and H Street and talked.
When Dean got to that house Friday night, he found a couch behind the door to keep it shut, blood on the front porch, a pillow in the middle of the street and shell casings scattered across the floor, according to the federal indictment.
It was a messy shooting. Dean wasn’t happy.
“All I seen was the (expletive) shells I’m picking up off the floor,” Dean told Crawford after the shooting. “Blood and (expletive) everywhere … The house shot the (expletive) up.”
He later was recorded on a phone call saying that the botched murder put him at risk.
“At the gas station, I said what AJ, I said what if you all did would have robbed them and got away. You were gonna tell me that you used my spot to rob a (expletive), they come back and kill me,” Dean said. “That hurt my heart, man, though. It hurt. It hurt.”
Before the end of the night, a BPD officer recognized Crawford, who was wanted as a suspect in the shooting, and attempted a traffic stop. He fled. When he eventually bailed out of his car to escape, he was shot and killed by Officer Warren Martin, son of Bakersfield Police Chief Lyle Martin. Officers recovered a gun near his person.

Gang members had predicted Crawford’s demise long before Nov. 4. He had become reckless, quit his job and was trying to make gangbanging a full-time career, according to the indictment.
“AJ gonna be dead before Christmas,” Dean told his son, Erin, a week before Crawford was killed. Erin, another West Side Crip, was in a juvenile facility after officers foiled a plot he took part in to shoot up a park where hundreds of rival gangsters were meeting. Crawford helped organize that shooting, too, according to the documents.
Dean was talking with an unidentified man after Crawford’s death on a wiretapped call: “I could see it in his eyes,” said the man, who told Dean he couldn’t talk much longer because he was in church. “I said AJ, why you quit ... remember I said why you quit your job, man? 'Cause I could just see it on him. He was just like lost.”
Dean said Crawford was “doing too much.”
In the end, a bullet may have brought him down, but it was greed that killed him. He was trying to get rich.

THE CASINO​

Some of the West Side Crips gangsters were so rich that they began funneling their money through an illegal casino they set up in a Union Avenue strip-mall storefront.
William Thomas, a crack-dealing member of the gang who goes by the nickname “Sprout,” ran the operation, which was open to West Side Crips members and close associates only, according to the federal documents.
It was started as a hangout for the gang, but they also dealt drugs from the location, according to court documents.
He licensed the casino, just as any other business owner would, through the city. It was registered as “Josiah’s Trading Post,” an homage, police suspect, to Thomas’ son, Josiah.
Thomas collected $30,000 from a gangster only identified as “Big Kool,” then started bringing in gaming machines from overseas, a dozen computers to load gambling software on from Moscow, and contracted another gangster to build a false wall in the store to hide the casino.
For the five months the casino operated between May and September, Thomas lived the high life. He drove around in a white Cadillac and took 15 percent of all winnings, according to a confidential informant’s report to federal investigators.
On a good week, the casino would clear $25,000 to $30,000, the informant said.
The operation was running so well that in September, gang members dismantled the casino with plans to move it to Thomas’ house, according to documents. It’s unclear if that ever materialized.
Thomas was named as a federal defendant this week by the California Attorney General’s Office on suspicion of distributing crack cocaine.

TRAFFICKING ACROSS STATES​

Although drugs run rampant throughout Bakersfield, much of the West Side Crips' business dealings involved sending packages of narcotics to Minot, N.D., an oil boom town that has seen a decreasing population and economic hardships as the price of oil dipped in 2015.
Investigators overheard Crawford in wiretapped calls talking about sending packages of methamphetamines to an associate only identified as “Pooh” living in Minot.
In exchange, Pooh would wire money to him through Walmart’s MoneyGram service, the federal indictment said. A woman the indictment identifies only as “A.H.” would handle those transfers for Crawford.
Drug traffickers use that MoneyGram service because it allows third parties not directly involved in the drug deals, like A.H., to send and receive payments, the indictment said. The service also doesn’t require a bank account to be tied to the transfer, making it difficult for law enforcement to track the funds.
But that doesn’t always work. One of the girls Crawford was using to pick up wire transfer funds got red-flagged at the store, according to the indictment.
“Whatever you all are doing, don’t use her no more,” a Walmart associate told Bryshanique Allen, one of the girls Crawford used to pick up funds, according to the federal documents.

PUSHING OVER GRANDMA​

Gang members would make money other ways, too, including preying on the elderly and defrauding them of their money to fuel their criminal enterprise, according to the indictment.
Larry Thomas, a West Side Crip member, orchestrated a scheme in March 2017 to scam an 83-year-old woman of about $719,000.
She received a phone call from a man claiming to be his grandson. He wove a tale about taking a ride in an Uber that got pulled over by the police, then getting arrested after the cops found drugs in the car. He begged the grandmother not to tell his parents, and then put his “attorney” on the phone, who requested a wire transfer of $41,000 to cover legal fees.
The elderly woman transferred the money to an account belonging to Larry Thomas, according to the federal indictment.
Two days later, the woman received another call from someone claiming to be her grandson and his attorney. He said that someone sued Uber and won a judgment and that she should join the suit to regain the $41,000 in legal fees she had already incurred.
Except this time the grandson was asking for $500,000. She withdrew a cashier’s check and deposited it into an account located in Lima, Peru.
Then the calls kept coming. Someone who said they were involved in the suit wanted a wire transfer of $100,000 as a retainer.
A man named James Mathew, claiming to be a paralegal, rang her next and asked for a $300,000 retainer.
The woman went to the bank to cash out her bonds, where employees convinced her she was getting scammed.
Thomas withdrew more than $219,000 from the account he established for the scam, according to the federal indictment.
He pulled the same scam on an 80-year-old in April and managed to defraud that woman of $35,500.
During a wiretap call, Thomas told an unidentified man about the scheme, which he facilitated through a third-party.
“All I know is if they need a Wells (Fargo) account, a (Bank of America) account, any account they need they just gonna grab. It’s not really about the person. They just look at the accounts, not really the person,” Thomas said.

U.S. Marshals Capture Over 800 Fugitives in Operation North Star [833]​


The U.S. Marshals Service has concluded Operation North Star II (ONS II), a high-impact fugitive apprehension initiative aimed at combating violent crime in 10 cities with a significant number of homicides and shootings.

9 states
This 30-day initiative resulted in the arrest of 833 fugitives, violent criminals, sex offenders, and self-identified gang members in Albuquerque, New Mexico; Buffalo, New York; Cleveland and Columbus, Ohio; Detroit, Michigan; Jackson, Mississippi; Kansas City, Missouri; Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Oakland, California; and Puerto Rico.

ONS II focused on fugitives wanted for the most serious, violent, and harmful offenses including homicide, forcible sexual assault, robbery, or aggravated assault. ONS II investigators prioritized their efforts to include individuals using firearms in their crimes, or who exhibited risk factors associated with violence.

“The results of this operation should make clear that the Justice Department and our partners across the country will stop at nothing to find and bring to justice those responsible for violent crime,” said Attorney General Merrick B. Garland. “The U.S. Marshals Service, and the entire Justice Department, will continue to work in partnership with community leaders and law enforcement professionals nationwide to protect our communities.”

“The U.S. Marshals Service remains steadfast in its commitment to assisting law enforcement and community leaders at all levels to combat violent crime,” said Director Ronald Davis of the U.S. Marshals Service. “The success of ONS II is based on its laser focus on the most significant drivers of violence. We are confident that apprehending these offenders will bring a level of justice to their victims and contribute to the overall violence reduction efforts in each city and hopefully bring a level of justice to their victims.”

Throughout the month of January, the U.S. Marshals Service used its broad arrest authority and network of task forces to arrest individuals wanted on charges including 95 for homicide and 68 for sexual assault. In addition, investigators seized 181 firearms, more than $229,000 in currency, and more than 160 kilograms of illegal narcotics.

Notable arrests included:

Walter Abbott
was arrested on Jan. 18 in Rio Rancho, New Mexico, by members of the Southwest Fugitive Task Force. Abbott was wanted in Sandoval County, New Mexico, for first-degree attempted homicide and aggravated burglary with a deadly weapon.
Paris Jackson was arrested on Jan. 31 in Buffalo, New York, by members of the New York/New Jersey Regional Fugitive Task Force. Jackson was wanted in Buffalo for second-degree criminal in possession of a weapon and for shooting at a police officer.
Gregory Kalvitz and Jessica Downing were arrested on Jan. 20 in Cleveland by members of the Northern Ohio Violent Fugitive Task Force. They were wanted in Henry County, Ohio, for interference of a custody warrant after taking an 8-year-old girl and fleeing.

Internal gang feud over $26K robbery ends with 2 dead, bullets sprayed in Las Vegas neighborhood​

Block-Boys-gang-10132023.jpg

LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — A Clark County grand jury indicted several gang members in the armed robbery at a 7-Eleven cash-drop and the ensuing deadly infighting among the members of that same criminal enterprise – the Block Boy Gang, prosecutors revealed Friday.
Those indictment documents detail how some members of the gang, known also as the
Block Boy Mafia, felt disrespected :ROFLMAO: and excluded :Dwhen other members stole $26,465 from the convenience store in Las Vegas on Aug. 7. A few weeks later, gangmates then raided the home of the girlfriend of a fellow Block Boy, Enrique Nunez, prosecutors say.
“Defendants beat, pistol-whipped and shot the victim, Enrique, who was obviously a member of the Block Boys as well,” chief deputy district attorney John Giordani said in court. “And he subsequently passed away.”
Four young men are charged with that murder: Jomario Clark Jr., 16; Gregory Leonard, 30; Jacorey Magdaleno, 17; Cameron Raye, 19; Jonathan Smith, 18.
Two of those men – Smith and Magdaleno – and two unnamed juveniles who prosecutors are attempting to try as adults but are not yet indicted then lured a “mobile marijuana dealer” to an address near one of the men’s homes and all opened fire, prosecutors say. They shot 25 rounds at the victim, killing him, but missed their target on several occasions and fired some of those bullets into a home, according to court documents. The gunfire narrowly missed two young children inside that home, ages 4 and 6. The home is near Rainshower Drive and Autumn Rain Court, which is in the area of Spring Mountain Road and Buffalo Drive.
“They were not hit,” Giordani said, but that gunfire resulted in additional weapons charges for the defendants.
A police report says officers located an SUV, which had crashed into an unoccupied car on Rainshower Drive, police said. The driver, Andre Bryant, 33, had a gunshot wound to his back and later died from his injuries.
Some of the defendants are charged with as many as 15 felonies, which all include additional penalties for so-called gang enhancement.
The defendants are expected to appear in Clark County’s 8th Judicial Court on Oct. 18 at 8:30 a.m.

Columbus police: 21 gang members behind bars, more arrests possible​


WOSU 89.7 NPR News | By Allie Vugrincic

Published February 21, 2024 at 5:22 PM EST

Mug shots show eight of a dozen BL - 800 gang members who were convicted of participating in a criminal gang and other charges at the culmination of a Columbus Division of Police investigation. Police on Wednesday announced that 21 gang members had been arrested, indicted, or convicted in the investigation that began in 2021. Twelve of the first 13 men arrested took plea deals and were convicted. Most face six to 10 years in prison.

On Wednesday, the Columbus Division of Police announced the arrests, indictments or convictions of 21 members of the BL – 800 gang that operates out of the Wedgewood and South Park apartments on the city’s west side.
Detective Eric Clouse said many of the men are charged with crimes like theft and receiving stolen property, but are suspected to have committed more violent crimes that officials couldn’t prosecute because witnesses and victims were afraid to testify.

“They controlled the areas through threat of violence and just kind of plagued the area, by really controlling it to the extent that we couldn't get good cooperation from victims and witnesses,” Clouse said.
Still, through an investigation that started in 2021, Clouse said the gang unit compiled more than 10,500 pages of documentation on the first 13 gang members who were arrested. Of those, Clouse said 12 have been convicted after taking plea deals. The last one faces a murder charge.

“This is what we came up with, and we charge them with what we could, because they're still dangerous individuals,” Clouse said. “We know who they are, and we have to get them out of the community to where they're plaguing these people and just victimizing everyone.”

Clouse described the gang as being mostly made up of 14- to 25-year-old boys and men. He said the name “BL” originally stood for “Bantu Life” or “Bantu Love,” referring to a Somali ethnic group. The gang changed it to “Brotherly Love” to sound more innocuous, Clouse said, and the designation of “800” was added to account for non-Somali gang members who live in the area of the 800 block of Wedgewood Drive.

Clouse said the group was involved in theft more than drug trafficking, though members face a slew of charges.
Those already convicted racked up charges of felonious assault, tampering with evidence, receiving stolen property, drug possession, failure to comply with officers and possession of weapons, among others.

Clouse said police worked with the Franklin County Prosecutor’s Office to figure out how to best charge members. With two underlying felonies, members could also be charged with participating in a criminal gang.
Most of the men are facing prison sentenced of six to 10 years.

Clouse noted that the investigation was first sparked by an increase in violence at the Wedgewood Apartments and South Park Apartments. He also said BL – 800 has feuded with other gangs, including another Somali group known as 777.
“You're going to see it continue unfortunately. But we're going to be there every step of the way. And by them seeing this, it shows them we're not we're not going to stand for that,” Clouse said.
Clouse said the department has already seen a “slight downtick” in shootings and violence in the BL – 800 territory. Columbus police stressed their commitment to keeping BL – 800 and other gangs in check and noted partnerships with the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office and other agencies.
Anthony Pierson, Deputy Chief Counsel with the Franklin County Prosecutor’s Office, said that the BL – 800 case is “only the beginning,” and the county plans to prosecute other gangs.
“If you’re part of the BL gang or any other gang, you really have three options,” Pierson said. “Turn your life around and leave the gang nonsense behind, end up as a victim in a gang-involved murder or be prosecuted and spend a significant portion of your life behind bars."
Authorities say more arrests are possible in the BL — 800 gang case.
 
The more I hear about the KKK, the more I know it is BS.

31 alleged gang members indicted on 103 counts


Chantee Lans has the story.

BRENTWOOD, Long Island (WABC) -- Police on Long Island say they busted a gang behind a spree of violence in Nassau and Suffolk counties.
More than 20 people are now under arrest and charged with at least 18 shootings and other violent crimes.
One of the victims was an elementary school teacher from Hempstead, killed in a case of mistaken identity.
Kimberly Collins Midgette was shot and killed last April.
Her 10-year-old daughter was not hurt, but she was sitting in the backseat.
Police arrested Oumar Barry in Midgette's murder.
The shootings span from August 2021 through this month.
Detectives used surveillance videos to crack the case.
A dozen illegal hand guns were recovered.
Suffolk County District Attorney Ray Tierney announced a 103-count indictment charging 31 members of the violent street gang known of the Bloodhound Brims. They are subset of a the Bloods.
Tierney says eight people were arrested within the last 24 hours, while 23 others were already apprehended.
Many of them are charged with conspiracy to commit murder.
Eighteen shootings happened among rival gang members from Hempstead to Hampton Bays.
Both Nassau and Suffolk district attorney offices, police departments, sheriff's offices, and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security were all there to announce the massive indictment.
"The message here today is loud and clear here. Law enforcement on Long Island stands united to investigate, prosecute, and hold responsible the individuals who are responsible for the violence on our streets," Tierney said. "If you fire a gun, if you conspire to fire a gun, if you support anyone who fires a gun, or you sell drugs or commit robberies, or support that activity, you will be held responsible."
Standing beside Tierney was Nassau County District Attorney Anne Donnelley.
"That's one of the important things about the cooperation about our offices and our law enforcement is we have to share information in order to put the case together," she said.
The DA says eight people were arrested Thursday, 23 others were already apprehended.
 

Sheriff Grady Judd gives update on human trafficking bust after 228 people arrested​

Polk County Sheriff’s Office arrests 228 during eight-day human trafficking enforcement operation “Operation March Sadness 2024”​

VIDEO
Sheriff Judd: I read an article this we week that says well the illegals coming here aren't committing crime at any greater percentage than the people who are here legally; what they didn't tell you is if they weren't here illegally at all the crime they would commit here would be zero so we're being victimized but that doesn't make any difference on the national level you see because because they sit up there behind their gated communities and and in Congress and they ...

Media Contact: Carrie Horstman, Administrator​


During an eight-day-long undercover human trafficking operation, which began on Thursday, February 22, 2024, the Polk County Sheriff’s Office Vice Unit arrested 228 suspects involved in illegal acts related to soliciting prostitutes, offering to commit prostitution, or aiding and abetting prostitutes.

Detectives from the Auburndale PD, Davenport PD, Haines City PD, Lakeland PD, Lake Hamilton PD, Lake Wales PD, St. Cloud PD, and Winter Haven Fire Rescue assisted with the investigation. The Office of the State Attorney 10th Judicial Circuit, State Attorney Brian Haas, members from the Florida Department of Children and Families (DCF), and social services organizations One More Child; Heartland for Children; and Selah Freedom, were also on-hand.

Those who travelled to provide prostitution services were screened by detectives and the social services organizations to determine if they were being trafficked or exploited by others, and were offered services by the social services organizations at the operation. During this investigation, 13 possible human trafficking victims were identified of the 66 prostitutes who were arrested.

There were 150 suspects arrested for soliciting a prostitute and traveling to the undercover location to negotiate having sex in exchange for money; 12 other suspects were arrested, and of those, 8 were either deriving proceeds from prostitution or transporting prostitutes to the undercover location.

Detectives charged a total of 70 felonies and 288 misdemeanors during the investigation. The suspects' criminal histories included a combined total of 879 felonies and 1,150 misdemeanors.

"This is a new record number of arrests during an investigation of this kind. More importantly, we identified 13 human trafficking victims; during two previous similar operations in February and October 2023, we identified 24 and 21 victims, respectively. That’s 58 victims we were able to identify in one year. The valuable relationships that we have with the social services organizations who join us in these operations make it possible for these women to get help and be emancipated from this way of life." - Grady Judd, Sheriff

Some interesting notes from the operation:

· 21 of the arrested are suspected of being in the country illegally; Those who are here illegally are from Chile, Cuba, Guatemala, Mexico, Peru, and Venezuela.
· 41 suspects told detectives they are married.
· 11 suspects told detectives they receive government assistance.
· 44 suspects brought illegal drugs to the location: detectives seized fentanyl, heroin, cocaine, MDMA, hydrocodone, Xanax, methamphetamine, and marijuana.
· 15 suspects brought firearms to the undercover location; 17 firearms total were seized.
· 18 suspects were from other states and Puerto Rico: Alabama, California, Georgia, Illinois, Massachusetts, Maryland, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, and Wisconsin.
· The oldest person arrested is 73 years old while the youngest is 16 years old.

Two dumbass brothers, Omar and Kalem Najjar, ages 16 and 17 years old, came to the location armed with a BB gun, wearing hoodies and ski masks, and creeping around the undercover location as if they were about to commit an armed robbery of the undercover detective who was posing as a prostitute whom they solicited online.

Click here to see videos of them two dumbasses at the undercover location.

Omar and Kalem Najjar were both charged with attempted armed robbery, a felony, as well as loitering/prowling.


"During these types of undercover investigations, I can truly say that we have 'seen it all' and yet we are still surprised by some of the violent acts we encounter. These two dumbass teenagers were incredibly lucky that they did not brandish a firearm while stalking who they thought was a prostitute, at a location filled with law enforcement officers. This could have ended very badly for them. This should also illustrate just how dangerous it is to agree to have sex with someone in exchange for money - there were 13 other suspects who brought firearms to the location." - Grady Judd, Sheriff

I find it interesting regarding Joe Biden's 2015 "Unrelenting stream of immigration" talk, and in the same year the FBIs discontinuation of its GANG THREAT REPORT, 2015, see pdf below.
It's a huge coverup on how bad it has gotten, in my opinion, of the colored gangs.
It relates to the huge increase in street crime we're seeing since 2020,
especially immigrant crimes - see ICE thread.

This is well planned chaos since Biden took office.


As I skim read through, I find that both black and brown gang threats were increased greatly during 2013-14. The entire document had little to say on Whites, other than WS supposedly in military, 2 White gang cases leading to convictions. Everything else was extensively focused on black & brown.

Prison inmates have access to internet inside prisons, using social media to run their street gangs across the USA.
Why in the hall do inmates even have WiFi?
Who gave inmates passwords to the WiFi routers?
If prison officials don't want inmates on the internet, then, why don't they change passwords and/or set user names who're only allowed to use WiFi?

I know how WiFi routers work, and it seems like they want black & brown gang leaders inside prisons to have access to WiFi to allow them to connect with majority black street gangs WHO RUN THE DRUG SALES & OTHER VICE, sex trade, sex trafficking, manage prostitutes, set up hit murders, racketeering.

Fifteen Alleged Members and Associates of Baltimore “Triple C” Gang Facing Federal Indictment on Charges Related to Their Participation in Drug Distribution and/or Racketeering Conspiracies, Including 18 Murders and 27 Attempted Murders

Indictment Alleges that the Members and Associates of Triple C Committed 18 Murders, 27 Attempted Murders, Carjackings, Robberies, Assaults, Engaged in Witness Intimidation, and Ran Street-Level Drug Distribution “Shops” in East and Northeast Baltimore

Baltimore, Maryland – A federal grand jury has returned a second superseding indictment that charges a total of 15 Baltimore defendants for their participating in violent racketeering and/or drug conspiracies. Eleven of the defendants, including seven new defendants, are charged with participating in a racketeering conspiracy that allegedly resulted in 18 murders, more than 27 attempted murders, carjackings, robberies, assaults, and witness intimidation that occurred between 2015 and November 2020. The second superseding indictment was returned on May 27, 2021 and unsealed late yesterday. Today’s announcement is the first public release related to the investigation and prosecution of members of the Triple C gang.
More than 50 law enforcement officers participated in the arrests of the three new defendants and the execution of three search warrants on June 2, 2021. The other four new defendants are already in federal custody on other charges.

The second superseding indictment was announced by Acting United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Jonathan F. Lenzner; Special Agent in Charge Timothy Jones of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF); and Commissioner Michael Harrison of the Baltimore Police Department.

Acting U.S. Attorney Jonathan F. Lenzner stated, “This violent street gang committed more than 40 homicides and attempted murders in total. This is not about numbers – each of those shootings represents a victim whose family will never see again, or a survivor of a non-fatal shooting who will never be the same. We are determined to root out the sources of violence from our neighborhoods and will continue to work with ATF, BPD and our other law enforcement partners to reduce violent crime and deadly drug dealing and hold accountable those who bring them to our streets.”

“These indictments are the result of relentless investigative efforts between ATF and our law enforcement partners, utilizing crime gun intelligence resources to connect the dots between the many incidents of violence,” said ATF Baltimore Special Agent in Charge Tim Jones. “ATF remains committed in our mission to identify offenders in Baltimore City who are committing murders, shooting, and violence, preventing citizens from living in safe communities.”

“This indictment represents the hard work of the men and women of the Baltimore Police Department, and our federal partners in holding criminals accountable for the violence in our city. We will continue to work collaboratively in going after individuals who are committing acts of violence, bringing drugs and guns into our neighborhoods and intimating the citizens of Baltimore.”

The following defendants, all from Baltimore, are charged in the second superseding indictment:
Desmond Butler, a/k/a Dez, age 23;
Darell Carter, a/k/a Black Ice, age 24;
Correy Cawthorn, a/k/a Fat Correy, age 22;
Michael Chester, a/k/a Mikkie, age 22;
Darien Coleman, a/k/a DCole, age 20;
Gary Creek a/k/a Hov, age 39;
Richard Grier, a/k/a Rich Homie, age 20;
Robert Harris-Howell, a/k/a Slim, age 29;
Dayon Jeter, a/k/a Savage and Day On Geter, age 22;
Desean Johnson, a/k/a Boosie, age 23;
Raekwon McMann, a/k/a Ray Ray, age 23;
Keishonne Moore, a/k/a Keedie, age 23;
Rashaud Nesmith, a/k/a Shaud, age 20;
Tyeshawn Rivers, a/k/a Shawn, age 21; and
Alonzo Tunnell, a/k/a Lo, age 29.

According to the 11-count indictment, from at least 2015 to May 27, 2021, Correy Cawthorn, Desmond Butler, Darrell Carter, Michael Chester, Darien Coleman, Gary Creek, Richard Grier, Dayon Jeter, Raekwon McMann, Rashaud Nesmith and Tyeshawn Rivers were part of the Triple C criminal enterprise. The indictment alleges that Triple C (Cruddy Conniving Crutballs) is a violent street gang that operated throughout Baltimore City, and ran street-level drug distribution “shops” in the Darley Park and Orchard Ridge neighborhoods in east and northeast Baltimore, where they distributed heroin, fentanyl, crack cocaine, and marijuana, among other controlled substances.

The second superseding indictment further alleges that Triple C members engaged in a pattern of criminal racketeering activity including acts including 18 murders, 27 attempted murders of rival gang members and narcotics dealers, narcotics trafficking, illegal firearms possession, robbery, carjacking, assault and witness intimidation and retaliation. Law enforcement seized 15 firearms that were used and/or possessed by members of the Triple C gang. Members of the gang allegedly earned respect from fellow members and maintained or advanced their position in the gang by engaging in criminal activities in furtherance of the gang, and particularly violent acts directed by Triple C leadership.

The second superseding indictment alleges that Creek founded Triple C as an alternative gang to the “Black Guerilla Family,” and established a hierarchy within the group, positioning Carter and Cawthorn in prominent roles. Creek allegedly took contract murders on behalf of Triple C and ordered other members to fulfill the contract. Triple C rules allegedly included members having access to firearms and providing firearms to members; removing arrested members from social media chats and group text messages to avoid law enforcement recovering the communications on the arrested members’ phones; and sharing members’ locations through their cell phones. The second superseding indictment alleges that Triple C members used over a dozen different firearms to commit acts of violence, often trading with each other or with associates to avoid detection through ballistic evidence.

According to the second superseding indictment, Triple C members routinely used social media websites to enhance the gang’s status and to identify and locate victims. Triple C members and associates posted photographs and rap videos to these social media websites in which they flaunted firearms, the superiority of the gang, and threatened to kill those who stood in the way of the gang. Members also allegedly used the sites to communicate with each other and share information concerning possible retaliation for violent crimes committed by gang members.

As detailed in the second superseding indictment, Triple C members supported rap artists or were burgeoning rap artists themselves, who would support Triple C by including lyrics about the gang in their songs. For example, in one rap artist’s music video on social media, the lyrics included “ain’t no Crip or no Blood, I’m Triple C baby.” Several alleged members and associates of Triple C are in the video dancing and waving firearms during the rap. :lol: In addition, gang members allegedly wore clothing touting the gang and warning against “snitching,” and promoted the gang by giving away clothing, such as t-shirts and hats.

Further, the second superseding indictment alleges that Triple C members and associates used social media chats and text messages to discuss, among other things, past criminal acts; the location and activities of other members; rival gangs and drug traffickers; the arrest or incarceration of members; the identities of individuals suspected of cooperating with law enforcement and proposed action to be taken against them; plans regarding the commission of future crimes and drug distribution; and ways to conceal these crimes from law enforcement.

Incarcerated members of Triple C allegedly used jail telephones to disseminate information about arrests and releases of members and associates; to warn of investigations; to publicize the identities of persons believed to be cooperating with law enforcement; to order assaults and murders of enemies of the enterprise; and to request money from Triple C members who were not incarcerated. Knowing the jail calls are recorded, incarcerated Triple C members and associates allegedly made calls using other inmates’ account numbers to conceal their identities.
The second superseding indictment seeks the forfeiture of any property constituting or derived from the racketeering conspiracy and narcotics distribution, including cash, drugs, 16 firearms, 250 rounds of ammunition, and any other proceeds.

If convicted, the 12 defendants charged with racketeering face a maximum of life in prison for the racketeering conspiracy. The defendants all face a mandatory minimum of 10 years and maximum of life in federal prison for conspiracy to distribute controlled substances, including 280 grams or more of crack cocaine and detectable amounts of fentanyl, heroin, and marijuana; and a maximum sentence of 20 years in federal prison for conspiracy to possess a firearm in furtherance of drug trafficking. Johnson and Moore each face a mandatory minimum sentence of five years in federal prison, consecutive to any other sentence imposed and up to life in federal prison for possession of a firearm in furtherance of drug trafficking. Harris-Howell, Tunnell, Cawthorn, Moore, and Johnson each face a maximum of 20 years in federal prison for possession with intent to distribute crack cocaine. Finally, Harris-Howell faces a maximum sentence of 10 years in prison for possession of a firearm and ammunition by a prohibited person. Dayon Jeter, Michael Chester and Darien Coleman were arrested on June 2, 2021 and had initial appearances in U.S. District Court in Baltimore. Chester and Coleman were ordered to be detained pending trail and Jeter has a detention hearing scheduled for June 7, 2021 at 11:30 a.m. Eleven other defendants are already detained on related federal or state charges and will have an initial appearance in the coming weeks. Creek is on pre-trial release and is expected to surrender to federal authorities today for an initial appearance scheduled at 1:00.
