Brooklyn drill rapper offered gang members cash, jewelry for violence: prosecutors
A prominent Brooklyn drill rapper used his music career to fuel bloodshed in the borough by offering up cash and jewelry in exchange for acts of violence, prosecutors alleged Tuesday — as they announced a 140-count indictment against more than two dozen gang members.
And two days after an Oct. 21, 2020 ambush by 8 Trey Crips in rival Folk Nation territory killing one and injuring five others, Williams treated members of the two affiliate gangs to a lavish dinner at a Manhattan steakhouse to celebrate the shooting spree, the DA’s office claimed. Gonzalez said that the gang members — including another rapper Tegan “Sleepy Hallow” Chambers — are charged with committing 27 acts of violence and crime between March 2019 through the present — including using stolen cars during shootings to grow their territory and grow their reputation.
On one April, 6, 2021 shooting at a rival, a 53-year-old man and a 43-year-old woman were struck by stray bullets shot by three gang members who then hopped in a getaway car being driven by Williams, the DA alleged. Williams and three others texted the next day about news articles of the shooting, the office said.
