Cops arrest two more members of gang with ties to Cardi B

Cops have caught up to two more members of a violent city Bloods gang whose leaders include a close pal of hip-hop star Cardi B, authorities said Friday.

Robert Baley, a 43-year-old with the street name of “Dead Eye,” was arrested Thursday in Scranton, Pa., and 49-year-old Augustus Ingram, a k a the “Elevator,” was busted Wednesday in New York City, according to federal and local police.

The two men were arrested in connection with the 59 Brims gang, a murderous drug-trafficking ring that has been around for at least a decade, authorities said.

Earlier this year, the feds charged Willie Evans and Yonette Respass — the alleged godfather and godmother of the gang.

Respass is more widely known a close friend of Cardi B, who has been a vocal supporter of the 29-year-old.

Members of the gang have “promoted and celebrated, in music and on social media” their criminal exploits and threatened witnesses with violence, the indictment reads.

The gang had been running a criminal enterprise since 2011 that pushed drugs, including crack, heroin and fentanyl, and was connected to bank and wire fraud, as well as murder, according to the indictment.

One suspect, 23-year-old Quaveon Ross dubbed “Bullet,” named in the most recent indicted filed in the Southern District remains on the loose, authorities said.

The only thing that stands out to me is that it has taken too many years for the law to catch up with them.

Northwest Woodsman: Why are Caucasians so slow to alert to this negro
Issue? They have been the source for almost all,of the violent crime in the US and we just sit idly by because we (not me) are so afraid of being called that dreaded word “racist”! What BS! I’d have it tattooed on my forehead if it would stir up some sort of backbone in Caucasians. God, how can we be so stupid and meek to allow this to continue and repeatedly give in to their demands. Please attempt to get up the courage to put an end to what is leading to your elimination. Believe me, you do not want to live under negro domination but if a taste of that sort of oppression and terror is what it will take, bring it on.

I don't think it's specifically a race issue- it's more of a culture issue. The ghetto culture is being glorified everywhere you look. It's sucked in blacks, whites, Hispanics, and grown at an alarming rate. No personal responsibility, weapons over words for settling disputes, no morals, all wanting more and more handouts so that any income they make personally can be spent on drugs, shoes, hair, nails, purses, and status-seeking vehicles. Our country needs to condemn the culture, not a race. We need to fix the welfare system. We need to penalize more babies on welfare, not incentivize it. We need to have real consequences for theft and assault and abuse so they learn to stop OR they get locked away from decent society.
