narrative
Aljermiah Mack and Anthony Ellison, high-ranking members of the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods, were convicted of racketeering conspiracy after a two-week trial in the Southern District of New York for their roles in a violent criminal enterprise that engaged in drug trafficking, shootings, robberies, and assaults across Manhattan and Brooklyn. Mack was found guilty of conspiring to distribute over one kilogram of heroin and MDMA, facing a mandatory minimum of 10 years and a maximum of life in prison, while Ellison was convicted of kidnapping a fellow gang member to enhance his status, maiming him, and slashing another individual’s face in retaliation for a shooting of an associate. Both were acquitted on one additional charge each—Mack on a firearms offense and Ellison on a separate assault count. The racketeering conspiracy charge carries a maximum of 20 years, but Ellison’s additional convictions expose him to potential life imprisonment. Sentencing for Mack was scheduled for February 19, 2020, and for Ellison on February 26, 2020, before Judge Paul A. Engelmayer. The case was prosecuted by the U.S. Attorney’s Office’s Violent and Organized Crime Unit, with critical investigative support from the NYPD, Homeland Security Investigations, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
