He died for nothing. 11 00:00:30,597 --> 00:00:33,767 A lot of these victims were anti-law enforcement. 12 00:00:33,867 --> 00:00:37,371 I had to show them I'm human, I'm just like them. 13 00:00:37,471 --> 00:00:40,307 One of them said, "I didn't think my life mattered." 14 00:00:41,675 --> 00:00:43,377 It was heartbreaking. 15 00:00:43,477 --> 00:00:44,811 I get this phone call. 16 00:00:44,912 --> 00:00:46,713 "This is Jessica Box with the FBI." 17 00:00:46,813 --> 00:00:49,550 And I was like, "FBI?" What's going on? 18 00:00:50,918 --> 00:00:55,188 This case is my life. I wake up and I work it. 19 00:00:55,289 --> 00:00:57,090 I sleep. I dream about it. 20 00:00:57,190 --> 00:00:59,026 I will not stop. 21 00:00:59,126 --> 00:01:01,161 Sit me on the stand. Give me the Bible. 22 00:01:01,261 --> 00:01:04,765 I'm bringin' my own. Wish them no luck in hell. 23 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:09,136 I'm FBI Special Agent Jessica Box. 24 00:01:11,838 --> 00:01:15,976 When serious crime strikes, the special agents of the FBI 25 00:01:16,076 --> 00:01:17,277 answer the call. 26 00:01:18,445 --> 00:01:21,481 Fidelity, bravery, integrity. 27 00:01:22,950 --> 00:01:25,852 This is "FEDS." 28 00:01:32,326 --> 00:01:35,963 A lot of people look at Florida from television. 29 00:01:36,063 --> 00:01:40,000 They see the lights, the palm trees, the beaches, 30 00:01:40,100 --> 00:01:42,669 and they just think that this is paradise. 31 00:01:46,406 --> 00:01:48,709 That's how they lure you in. 32 00:01:48,809 --> 00:01:51,778 But once you get to the heart of Florida, 33 00:01:51,878 --> 00:01:53,313 where the heartbeat is, 34 00:01:54,681 --> 00:01:56,216 this is a concrete jungle. 35 00:01:57,284 --> 00:02:01,722 You got a lot of lions, tigers, and bears. 36 00:02:02,856 --> 00:02:04,992 So, tread light and be careful. 37 00:02:05,092 --> 00:02:06,860 Everything that glitters isn't gold here. 38 00:02:16,436 --> 00:02:18,605 As a detective, you see these violent crimes 39 00:02:18,705 --> 00:02:21,341 spreading out throughout our county, 40 00:02:21,441 --> 00:02:23,443 and you're starting to feel like there's some connection. 41 00:02:24,544 --> 00:02:27,948 You definitely fear that, uh, this is getting out of control. 42 00:02:29,149 --> 00:02:30,984 Coming up through law enforcement, I worked a lot 43 00:02:31,084 --> 00:02:33,987 of undercover work, but I'd never seen anything like this. 44 00:02:35,322 --> 00:02:37,157 We didn't know who they were, but they were 45 00:02:37,257 --> 00:02:40,827 terrorizing the county. 46 00:02:40,927 --> 00:02:43,296 Numerous different police departments were involved. 47 00:02:43,397 --> 00:02:45,766 Each one had one small aspect of it 48 00:02:45,866 --> 00:02:48,101 to just-- overwhelming state authorities. 49 00:02:48,201 --> 00:02:51,672 So, based upon that, I put out inquiries to the FBI 50 00:02:51,772 --> 00:02:54,141 as to who might be available to work on these cases. 51 00:02:56,009 --> 00:02:58,478 I was assigned a young female by the name of Jessica Box. 52 00:03:00,981 --> 00:03:04,618 I worked as an intelligence analyst for the FBI. 53 00:03:04,718 --> 00:03:05,786 I wanted to do more. 54 00:03:05,886 --> 00:03:07,621 I did not want to just sit on the sidelines 55 00:03:07,721 --> 00:03:09,189 and be on the computer all day. 56 00:03:09,289 --> 00:03:11,391 And I decided that I really had to be an agent. 57 00:03:11,491 --> 00:03:13,727 That was really what my heart was telling me. 58 00:03:13,827 --> 00:03:16,263 So this case was really what I call "my baby". 59 00:03:16,363 --> 00:03:18,598 It was my first investigation as a brand-new agent. 60 00:03:20,367 --> 00:03:23,503 Agent Box was faced with taking over all the evidence 61 00:03:23,603 --> 00:03:25,972 that we had accumulated up to this point. 62 00:03:27,007 --> 00:03:29,643 I essentially took a 5,000-piece puzzle 63 00:03:29,743 --> 00:03:31,678 and dumped it in Jessica's lap. 64 00:03:34,114 --> 00:03:36,149 I was very nervous. 65 00:03:36,249 --> 00:03:39,019 I spent about a full week, without exaggeration, 66 00:03:39,119 --> 00:03:40,687 organizing files. 67 00:03:40,787 --> 00:03:44,491 We had over 49 different crimes across South Florida 68 00:03:44,591 --> 00:03:46,493 in a very small period of time. 69 00:03:47,527 --> 00:03:49,796 I went through detail after detail, 70 00:03:49,896 --> 00:03:51,565 case by case, 71 00:03:51,665 --> 00:03:54,367 trying to put the pieces to the puzzle together. 72 00:04:02,075 --> 00:04:05,412 On November 4th, 2015, a shooting took place 73 00:04:05,512 --> 00:04:09,249 in a garage in a neighborhood called "Habitat" in Lauderhill. 74 00:04:09,349 --> 00:04:11,051 Inside the garage was Rodrick McCullough, 75 00:04:11,151 --> 00:04:12,619 a small-time marijuana dealer, 76 00:04:12,719 --> 00:04:14,020 Veronica Gilchrist, 77 00:04:14,121 --> 00:04:17,257 and her friend Donald Johnston, also known as Eddie. 78 00:04:18,725 --> 00:04:21,695 Eddie was the neighborhood's champ. 79 00:04:21,795 --> 00:04:24,631 He was just that person where you could go to him 80 00:04:24,731 --> 00:04:25,799 for anything. 81 00:04:25,899 --> 00:04:27,567 He'll give you the clothes off his back. 82 00:04:29,669 --> 00:04:31,404 I used to call Eddie my guardian angel. 83 00:04:32,973 --> 00:04:34,975 As long as I'm near Eddie, 84 00:04:35,075 --> 00:04:36,376 I don't have nothing to worry about. 85 00:04:38,245 --> 00:04:43,950 That night, a little bit after 10, I'm eating my pizza. 86 00:04:44,050 --> 00:04:46,219 Eddie is standing not too far from me. 87 00:04:48,555 --> 00:04:50,357 Rod is close by me. 88 00:04:51,825 --> 00:04:53,994 And he begins to stutter. 89 00:04:54,094 --> 00:04:56,630 And I'm like, "Boy, get the-- get them words out your mouth." 90 00:04:56,730 --> 00:04:57,998 He's, "Stu-stu..." 91 00:04:58,098 --> 00:05:00,400 And I'm like-- but when I look at him, 92 00:05:00,500 --> 00:05:03,436 you can see the garage doors just, like, lift up. 93 00:05:04,738 --> 00:05:06,506 They came in with no masks. 94 00:05:06,606 --> 00:05:10,477 They came in shooting with AK-47s. 95 00:05:10,577 --> 00:05:13,413 I was standing in the middle of crossfire. 96 00:05:14,548 --> 00:05:17,651 I fall, boom, then Rod falls, boom. 97 00:05:17,751 --> 00:05:21,054 And the last person standing is Eddie. 98 00:05:21,154 --> 00:05:23,290 I remember him, like, reaching in his pockets 99 00:05:23,390 --> 00:05:25,826 and pulling out some money and throwing it, like, 100 00:05:25,926 --> 00:05:27,527 "Get what you want, take what you want, 101 00:05:27,627 --> 00:05:29,763 so you guys can leave." 102 00:05:29,863 --> 00:05:30,997 And they shot him. 103 00:05:32,566 --> 00:05:37,170 I just remember them standing on the back of my legs 104 00:05:37,270 --> 00:05:40,440 and shooting me close range to the point... 105 00:05:40,540 --> 00:05:42,609 your body becomes numb. 106 00:05:42,709 --> 00:05:46,880 I prayed to God, and I-- and I remember just screaming out 107 00:05:46,980 --> 00:05:50,450 my son's name and feeling like I let him down. 108 00:05:50,550 --> 00:05:53,486 And one of them came and said in my ear, 109 00:05:53,587 --> 00:05:56,456 "Bitch, stop praying. Stop [bleep] praying." 110 00:05:56,556 --> 00:05:58,258 I remember thinking, 111 00:05:59,726 --> 00:06:02,462 this is how you're about to die. This is how you're gonna go, 112 00:06:02,562 --> 00:06:03,763 riddled with bullets. 113 00:06:05,632 --> 00:06:07,167 One of them walked over, 114 00:06:07,267 --> 00:06:09,202 stood on her back with both feet, 115 00:06:09,302 --> 00:06:12,205 and pointed an AK-47 down, straight at her back, 116 00:06:12,305 --> 00:06:13,740 and fired their weapon. 117 00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:15,575 Her back filleted open. 118 00:06:15,675 --> 00:06:18,278 Due to having sclerosis as a child, 119 00:06:18,378 --> 00:06:20,580 she had a titanium rod in her back, 120 00:06:20,680 --> 00:06:22,349 and the bullet actually bounced out, 121 00:06:22,449 --> 00:06:23,817 and she survived. 122 00:06:23,917 --> 00:06:26,019 That is the only reason she is walking and living right now. 123 00:06:28,455 --> 00:06:30,423 When law enforcement arrived on scene that night, 124 00:06:30,523 --> 00:06:32,192 Donald Johnston was still alive, 125 00:06:32,292 --> 00:06:34,628 and he was rushed to the hospital. 126 00:06:34,728 --> 00:06:36,396 He was the son of one of our employees 127 00:06:36,496 --> 00:06:38,965 at the Broward Sheriff's Office, Mrs. Kathy Wilson. 128 00:06:44,137 --> 00:06:48,408 At 11:15, I got a phone call from one of his friends. 129 00:06:50,210 --> 00:06:51,611 He said, "Mom, Eddie's been shot." 130 00:06:53,813 --> 00:06:55,248 We went to the hospital. 131 00:06:55,348 --> 00:06:57,150 They took us to the Critical Care Unit. 132 00:06:58,518 --> 00:07:00,020 He was laying there. 133 00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:01,121 Um... 134 00:07:02,989 --> 00:07:05,058 I can't remember how many bags of blood he went through, 135 00:07:05,158 --> 00:07:07,294 and they said, "It's just not staying in. 136 00:07:07,394 --> 00:07:09,095 It's not staying in." 137 00:07:09,195 --> 00:07:11,097 I was talking to him, 138 00:07:11,197 --> 00:07:13,333 and his eyes were somewhat closed, 139 00:07:13,433 --> 00:07:15,468 but glazed a bit, you know. 140 00:07:17,270 --> 00:07:18,638 And then he started biting his lip, 141 00:07:20,240 --> 00:07:23,977 and the nurse saw it, and she said, "Stop, stop, stop. 142 00:07:24,077 --> 00:07:25,478 "We have to put him back under.

He died for nothing. 177 00:09:14,220 --> 00:09:16,556 Rodrick McCullough survived the shooting, 178 00:09:16,656 --> 00:09:18,391 but when we went to speak with him, 179 00:09:18,491 --> 00:09:20,193 he was very uncooperative. 180 00:09:20,293 --> 00:09:21,327 Claimed he didn't know anything, 181 00:09:21,428 --> 00:09:24,030 and he didn't know why. 182 00:09:24,130 --> 00:09:26,099 So, while processing the crime scene, 183 00:09:26,199 --> 00:09:27,867 we found multiple shell casings, 184 00:09:27,967 --> 00:09:28,968 but this was a mystery. 185 00:09:29,069 --> 00:09:30,136 We didn't know who the shooters were. 186 00:09:31,905 --> 00:09:34,974 All we knew was that there were two gunmen, 187 00:09:35,075 --> 00:09:37,077 and they didn't wear masks. 188 00:09:37,177 --> 00:09:39,179 So, I started looking through the cases 189 00:09:39,279 --> 00:09:41,948 where there were a lot of potential eyewitnesses. 190 00:09:49,289 --> 00:09:52,926 On October 3, 2015, there was a peewee football game. 191 00:09:55,628 --> 00:09:57,497 It was a park in Lauderhill Lakes, 192 00:09:57,597 --> 00:09:59,666 just like a typical Saturday afternoon. 193 00:10:00,867 --> 00:10:03,203 At the time, there was hundreds of kids. 194 00:10:03,303 --> 00:10:05,638 Peewee football games were actively going on 195 00:10:05,738 --> 00:10:07,907 with their parents and everybody watching. 196 00:10:08,007 --> 00:10:10,443 I was told that there was over 300 people here. 197 00:10:12,745 --> 00:10:16,850 On that date, several gunmen walked into the park 198 00:10:16,950 --> 00:10:19,819 in broad daylight with no face coverings, 199 00:10:19,919 --> 00:10:21,588 nothing to hide their identity, 200 00:10:22,922 --> 00:10:26,292 walked up to a father who was with his children 201 00:10:27,794 --> 00:10:29,028 and shot him point-blank. 202 00:10:32,966 --> 00:10:35,435 They stole his money and they ran back across 203 00:10:35,535 --> 00:10:37,537 into their car and took off. 204 00:10:37,637 --> 00:10:40,807 They shot Zoe Gotti twice in the stomach, 205 00:10:40,907 --> 00:10:42,909 but miraculously, he was able to survive. 206 00:10:44,244 --> 00:10:46,246 I spoke to so many people on the street 207 00:10:46,346 --> 00:10:48,615 who were reluctant to talk to me. 208 00:10:50,450 --> 00:10:52,652 Out of 300 people, not one person came forward 209 00:10:52,752 --> 00:10:54,220 to say what they saw. 210 00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,222 No one wanted to talk to law enforcement. 211 00:10:56,322 --> 00:10:57,824 That was the first time I realized 212 00:10:57,924 --> 00:10:59,459 how hard my job was gonna be 213 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:01,227 if no one would step up and say, 214 00:11:01,327 --> 00:11:04,197 "These people shot someone in broad daylight, 215 00:11:04,297 --> 00:11:06,366 and my children were running around." 216 00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:10,136 But I started to see there was a clear pattern. 217 00:11:11,137 --> 00:11:14,107 Zoe Gotti and Rodrick McCullough were both people that had 218 00:11:14,207 --> 00:11:17,043 a reputation to deal drugs in the Dania Beach 219 00:11:17,143 --> 00:11:18,945 and Hollywood area. 220 00:11:19,045 --> 00:11:21,748 What we realized is that these gunmen were specifically 221 00:11:21,848 --> 00:11:24,684 targeting drug dealers and people that they perceived 222 00:11:24,784 --> 00:11:28,288 to be law enforcement unfriendly, so that these people 223 00:11:28,388 --> 00:11:30,256 wouldn't testify against them. 224 00:11:30,356 --> 00:11:32,192 We noticed this pattern over and over again. 225 00:11:33,393 --> 00:11:37,230 And, as time went on, I found a connection that would change 226 00:11:37,330 --> 00:11:39,065 the course of the entire investigation. 227 00:11:50,543 --> 00:11:54,314 On November 3rd, 2015, myself and my partner, 228 00:11:54,414 --> 00:11:58,084 Walt Foster, we got notified by supervisors 229 00:11:58,184 --> 00:12:01,221 of a home invasion, uh, robbery, 230 00:12:01,321 --> 00:12:04,224 where one of the victims had been shot. 231 00:12:06,392 --> 00:12:08,127 By the time we arrived on the scene, the victim had 232 00:12:08,228 --> 00:12:10,163 already been transported to the hospital. 233 00:12:11,264 --> 00:12:14,400 AJ Bosfield was one of those kids that grew up 234 00:12:14,500 --> 00:12:15,868 in a bad environment. 235 00:12:15,969 --> 00:12:17,604 He was one of those kids that you thought 236 00:12:17,704 --> 00:12:20,406 you could change him if you gave him some options 237 00:12:20,506 --> 00:12:23,309 and talk him out of being on the streets. 238 00:12:23,409 --> 00:12:26,112 From what we were told from the witnesses on scene, 239 00:12:26,212 --> 00:12:27,947 Mr. Bosfield was cooperating. 240 00:12:28,047 --> 00:12:31,017 It didn't matter to them that he was cooperating. 241 00:12:31,117 --> 00:12:33,386 He was still placed onto the ground 242 00:12:33,486 --> 00:12:34,787 of the bedroom and shot. 243 00:12:37,724 --> 00:12:40,493 He was pronounced deceased at the hospital. 244 00:12:40,593 --> 00:12:42,895 He was not a threat to anyone, and he was executed 245 00:12:42,996 --> 00:12:44,731 by-- by these robbers. 246 00:12:46,866 --> 00:12:49,569 This murder took place 24 hours before the murder 247 00:12:49,669 --> 00:12:51,771 of Donald Johnston. 248 00:12:51,871 --> 00:12:55,041 We knew that we were dealing with criminals that were out 249 00:12:55,141 --> 00:12:56,943 for more than just product. 250 00:12:57,043 --> 00:12:58,745 They were looking to make a name for themselves, 251 00:12:58,845 --> 00:13:00,246 and they were looking for street credit. 252 00:13:02,115 --> 00:13:04,851 There were drive-by shootings happening on what seemed 253 00:13:04,951 --> 00:13:06,786 like a daily basis. 254 00:13:06,886 --> 00:13:10,189 It was clear this was not the works of just a few gunmen. 255 00:13:10,290 --> 00:13:12,025 We were dealing with a gang working together. 256 00:13:13,226 --> 00:13:15,862 They were spreading across South Florida. 257 00:13:15,962 --> 00:13:17,530 We didn't know how far extended, 258 00:13:17,630 --> 00:13:19,599 but we knew we had to do something fast. 259 00:13:21,167 --> 00:13:23,169 At the AJ Bosfield homicide, 260 00:13:23,269 --> 00:13:27,073 we found two ...380 cartridge casings. 261 00:13:28,141 --> 00:13:31,344 I went through every piece of evidence across many cases 262 00:13:31,444 --> 00:13:34,547 from each crime scene that had casings. 263 00:13:36,249 --> 00:13:38,651 And I found a very likely match. 264 00:13:43,956 --> 00:13:45,992 This was the residence of Cory Billings. 265 00:13:47,927 --> 00:13:49,996 Cory Billings was a known drug dealer 266 00:13:50,096 --> 00:13:51,564 in the Hollywood area. 267 00:13:51,664 --> 00:13:56,436 On November 25, 2015, the car parked 268 00:13:56,536 --> 00:13:59,539 right where we are. Two gunmen went inside. 269 00:14:01,708 --> 00:14:04,577 The Cory Billings crime scene was so heinous. 270 00:14:04,677 --> 00:14:06,713 I mean, Cory Billings was laid out on the floor, 271 00:14:06,813 --> 00:14:09,048 shot several times in the head. 272 00:14:09,148 --> 00:14:13,886 There were nine handgun casings, and eight were a .380 caliber. 273 00:14:15,221 --> 00:14:18,057 As law enforcement went in to clear the residence, 274 00:14:18,157 --> 00:14:19,826 they discovered that there was, in fact, 275 00:14:19,926 --> 00:14:22,729 a robust security system in place. 276 00:14:23,963 --> 00:14:26,065 We knew we needed to see exactly what footage was on it, 277 00:14:26,165 --> 00:14:27,200 as quickly as possible. 278 00:14:28,267 --> 00:14:31,471 When Hollywood told me they had video of the Cory Billings 279 00:14:31,571 --> 00:14:34,407 home invasion robbery, I was very excited. 280 00:14:34,507 --> 00:14:36,142 To say the least, I thought this could be 281 00:14:36,242 --> 00:14:37,477 the breakthrough in the case. 282 00:14:37,577 --> 00:14:39,278 I dropped everything, got everybody together, 283 00:14:39,379 --> 00:14:42,048 and had a TV set up for them and everything. 284 00:14:44,917 --> 00:14:49,589 But when they played the video, I realized that this was a video 285 00:14:49,689 --> 00:14:52,959 that I wouldn't want anyone else to watch. 286 00:14:53,059 --> 00:14:55,928 The violence and the nature of this crime 287 00:14:56,028 --> 00:14:57,830 was absolutely ruthless. 288 00:14:59,999 --> 00:15:02,902 You can see Cory Billings walk out a customer. 289 00:15:05,972 --> 00:15:08,174 The first gunman comes in. 290 00:15:11,577 --> 00:15:13,713 And shoots at Cory Billings and the dog. 291 00:15:14,981 --> 00:15:16,315 You see the second man come in. 292 00:15:17,817 --> 00:15:19,152 They're searching the house. 293 00:15:20,953 --> 00:15:22,822 We're assuming he's asking Cory Billings, 294 00:15:22,922 --> 00:15:24,290 "Where's the money, where's the drugs?" 295 00:15:26,092 --> 00:15:27,760 And in the corner here, you can see 296 00:15:27,860 --> 00:15:30,663 that the first gunman is searching through the kitchen. 297 00:15:30,763 --> 00:15:33,433 As the first gunman walks out, he's trying to clear 298 00:15:33,533 --> 00:15:35,234 what we think is a jam in his firearm. 299 00:15:36,269 --> 00:15:37,603 And Cory Billings, we assume, 300 00:15:37,703 --> 00:15:39,238 thinks it's safe to get up. 301 00:15:44,877 --> 00:15:47,213 But the gunman tells him to get back down. 302 00:15:47,313 --> 00:15:49,449 We think Cory Billings was laying on the ground, 303 00:15:49,549 --> 00:15:52,018 clearly obeying the orders that he was given, 304 00:15:52,118 --> 00:15:54,187 probably pleading for his life. 305 00:15:59,091 --> 00:16:00,793 And he's just shot, as he's laying there. 306 00:16:06,032 --> 00:16:07,600 Cold-blooded execution. 307 00:16:10,403 --> 00:16:12,705 Cory Billings was severely brain damaged 308 00:16:12,805 --> 00:16:15,675 and sadly passed away, 2024. 309 00:16:18,010 --> 00:16:20,646 While the video was a great breakthrough in our case, 310 00:16:20,746 --> 00:16:23,115 it's also torturous because the video 311 00:16:23,216 --> 00:16:26,052 was grainy enough to where we couldn't 100% 312 00:16:26,152 --> 00:16:29,489 positively ID somebody enough to place him into custody. 313 00:16:31,390 --> 00:16:32,758 When you go through a video like that 314 00:16:32,859 --> 00:16:34,126 for evidentiary purposes, 315 00:16:34,227 --> 00:16:35,928 you slow it down and you go through it 316 00:16:36,028 --> 00:16:37,730 frame by frame by frame. 317 00:16:38,764 --> 00:16:40,733 Eventually, we picked up little nuances. 318 00:16:41,701 --> 00:16:42,835 We saw that the second person 319 00:16:42,935 --> 00:16:45,371 was possibly communicating with somebody outside 320 00:16:45,471 --> 00:16:47,240 as he would occasionally turn his head. 321 00:16:48,808 --> 00:16:50,276 We could see that there was a third person 322 00:16:50,376 --> 00:16:51,811 standing in the doorway. 323 00:16:53,112 --> 00:16:56,148 We couldn't see who it was at all, just a shadow. 324 00:16:58,784 --> 00:17:01,787 Hollywood Police Department went and recovered fingerprints 325 00:17:01,888 --> 00:17:04,223 from that doorway and sent it to the lab. 326 00:17:05,825 --> 00:17:08,227 One of those fingerprints came back for a positive hit 327 00:17:08,327 --> 00:17:09,729 on Eric Hunter. 328 00:17:12,798 --> 00:17:14,534 Eric Hunter was very well known 329 00:17:14,634 --> 00:17:16,302 on the streets of South Florida. 330 00:17:16,402 --> 00:17:18,271 He'd been a thorn in the side of law enforcement 331 00:17:18,371 --> 00:17:20,172 since he was an adolescent. 332 00:17:22,208 --> 00:17:23,709 When I went through his social media, 333 00:17:24,710 --> 00:17:26,712 it was clear that he had a group following. 334 00:17:30,216 --> 00:17:31,884 From there, we started to build our network 335 00:17:31,984 --> 00:17:34,253 of potential gang members. 336 00:17:36,822 --> 00:17:38,324 Just spun that guap at Wendy's, man. 337 00:17:38,424 --> 00:17:40,293 [bleep] real hungry, man. 338 00:17:40,393 --> 00:17:41,961 I went and collected information 339 00:17:42,061 --> 00:17:44,497 on literally over a hundred people. 340 00:17:49,402 --> 00:17:52,071 But the same three people were always together. 341 00:17:52,171 --> 00:17:53,873 Eric Hunter, 342 00:17:53,973 --> 00:17:55,441 Derrick Slade, 343 00:17:55,541 --> 00:17:57,043 and Marcello Gordon. 344 00:17:57,143 --> 00:17:58,544 It was easy to see that they were 345 00:17:58,644 --> 00:18:01,981 the three pieces of glue that held this gang together, 346 00:18:02,081 --> 00:18:06,218 and that Eric Hunter was most likely the leader. 347 00:18:08,454 --> 00:18:09,455 We hit the streets 348 00:18:09,555 --> 00:18:11,023 and we talked to a lot of people. 349 00:18:11,123 --> 00:18:14,460 They were telling us that, even as a young kid, 350 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:16,495 he wanted to control people. 351 00:18:16,596 --> 00:18:18,664 He wanted to call the shots. 352 00:18:18,764 --> 00:18:21,601 Eric Hunter had this reputation that he was untouchable. 353 00:18:30,676 --> 00:18:32,445 The word on the street was that he must have had 354 00:18:32,545 --> 00:18:36,349 black magic promoting and assisting him. 355 00:18:37,483 --> 00:18:41,253 We were told that there was a woman who practiced voodoo 356 00:18:41,354 --> 00:18:42,989 in a storefront. 357 00:18:43,089 --> 00:18:46,726 And these gang members would go to her to ask for her blessing 358 00:18:46,826 --> 00:18:48,327 and protection from law enforcement. 359 00:18:49,862 --> 00:18:52,198 We had to find a way to stop Eric Hunter. 360 00:19:00,473 --> 00:19:03,175 A partner of mine and myself, 361 00:19:03,275 --> 00:19:05,244 we drove around to see if we could locate 362 00:19:05,344 --> 00:19:08,414 any local gang members we could talk to 363 00:19:08,514 --> 00:19:11,017 to kind of give us some insight into some of the crimes 364 00:19:11,117 --> 00:19:12,385 that were occurring. 365 00:19:14,620 --> 00:19:16,589 We observe what we believe to be a hand-to-hand 366 00:19:16,689 --> 00:19:19,425 narcotics transaction take place with a vehicle, 367 00:19:19,525 --> 00:19:21,994 so we decided to stop that vehicle. 368 00:19:23,462 --> 00:19:26,298 There's a small turn lane right up here by this light, 369 00:19:26,399 --> 00:19:30,136 and that's where we conducted the traffic stop. 370 00:19:32,138 --> 00:19:33,606 On approach to the car, my partner took 371 00:19:33,706 --> 00:19:35,141 the driver's side window, 372 00:19:35,241 --> 00:19:37,843 and I took the right-rear passenger side. 373 00:19:39,745 --> 00:19:42,248 At that point, we asked for compliance. 374 00:19:42,348 --> 00:19:43,349 "Show me your hands, 375 00:19:43,449 --> 00:19:44,717 put your hands on the dashboard." 376 00:19:44,817 --> 00:19:45,851 We just wanna see their hands, 377 00:19:45,951 --> 00:19:47,653 to make sure they're not gonna hurt us. 378 00:19:49,088 --> 00:19:50,823 The front passenger and the driver 379 00:19:50,923 --> 00:19:51,991 immediately complied. 380 00:19:54,060 --> 00:19:55,961 The person in the back behind the driver, 381 00:19:56,062 --> 00:19:57,396 uh, was not complying, 382 00:19:57,496 --> 00:20:00,299 was just kinda pretending he couldn't be seen. 383 00:20:01,801 --> 00:20:03,369 I continued to address him. 384 00:20:03,469 --> 00:20:05,304 I said, "Show me your hands, show me your hands." 385 00:20:05,404 --> 00:20:07,573 He still didn't comply. 386 00:20:07,673 --> 00:20:08,641 I heard my partner ask 387 00:20:08,741 --> 00:20:10,409 for driver's license, registration, 388 00:20:10,509 --> 00:20:12,244 just like any other car stop. 389 00:20:12,344 --> 00:20:13,512 And I heard the driver say, 390 00:20:14,547 --> 00:20:17,483 "You know me, I'm Eric Hunter. I don't have my ID." 391 00:20:17,583 --> 00:20:20,286 And at that point, I knew this car stop 392 00:20:20,386 --> 00:20:21,987 was gonna get a little hairy. 393 00:20:23,756 --> 00:20:25,324 To say... 394 00:20:25,424 --> 00:20:27,226 I was nervous would be an understatement. 395 00:20:28,294 --> 00:20:31,130 I felt that this male passenger in the backseat 396 00:20:31,230 --> 00:20:33,032 had a gun in his lap 397 00:20:33,132 --> 00:20:36,135 and I felt that he was getting ready to kill me. 398 00:20:36,235 --> 00:20:38,671 I am so convinced that this subject has a gun, 399 00:20:38,771 --> 00:20:40,706 and that we're about to get in a shooting, 400 00:20:40,806 --> 00:20:42,675 that I point my gun at him 401 00:20:42,775 --> 00:20:44,677 and I begin telling him that if he doesn't show me 402 00:20:44,777 --> 00:20:46,011 his hands, I'm gonna kill him. 403 00:20:47,546 --> 00:20:48,881 He still does not comply. 404 00:20:48,981 --> 00:20:51,817 I can see the muscles in his hands moving. 405 00:20:51,917 --> 00:20:54,820 I can see the muscles in his forearms twitching. 406 00:20:54,920 --> 00:20:57,556 I feel like he's maneuvering the weapon to a position 407 00:20:57,656 --> 00:20:58,991 where he can shoot me. 408 00:21:00,192 --> 00:21:02,695 At the same time, I am also positioning myself 409 00:21:02,795 --> 00:21:04,930 to where I can get a clean shot on him 410 00:21:05,030 --> 00:21:07,500 that I start squeezing my trigger. 411 00:21:07,600 --> 00:21:11,003 And I let him know one more time to look at my weapon, 412 00:21:11,103 --> 00:21:14,607 to look at my finger, to see that I'm squeezing the trigger, 413 00:21:14,707 --> 00:21:16,008 and to know that I'm about to shoot him. 414 00:21:22,815 --> 00:21:24,216 I thought I was gonna get shot. 415 00:21:26,051 --> 00:21:30,022 I took my body armor and I pushed it into the window 416 00:21:30,122 --> 00:21:32,625 so his only shot was gonna be on my body armor. 417 00:21:34,093 --> 00:21:36,095 At that time, our backup started arriving. 418 00:21:36,195 --> 00:21:38,230 We had multiple police cars showing up. 419 00:21:39,231 --> 00:21:42,401 He showed me his hands, but I could tell 420 00:21:42,501 --> 00:21:43,803 he kinda a sleight of hand. 421 00:21:43,903 --> 00:21:45,671 Whatever he was holding in his hands, 422 00:21:45,771 --> 00:21:47,640 he moved and kept under the hat. 423 00:21:47,740 --> 00:21:49,175 I said, "Get this guy out of the car 424 00:21:49,275 --> 00:21:50,476 and handcuff him." 425 00:21:52,978 --> 00:21:54,680 I was able to search the car. 426 00:21:54,780 --> 00:21:56,382 First thing that I went to look for 427 00:21:56,482 --> 00:21:58,918 was to confirm my feeling, 428 00:21:59,018 --> 00:22:02,555 and I lifted the hat off the rear passenger seat, 429 00:22:04,223 --> 00:22:07,126 and I saw a .380 black Beretta handgun. 430 00:22:08,794 --> 00:22:10,729 They say when something's about to happen in police work, 431 00:22:10,830 --> 00:22:13,732 the hair stands up on your neck and stuff, and I knew I was 432 00:22:13,833 --> 00:22:16,168 very close to getting in a shooting that night, 433 00:22:16,268 --> 00:22:17,269 possibly being shot. 434 00:22:19,405 --> 00:22:21,106 Eric Hunter was arrested that night 435 00:22:21,207 --> 00:22:24,310 for possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. 436 00:22:24,410 --> 00:22:26,745 Eventually, we identified the male in the back 437 00:22:26,846 --> 00:22:28,380 of the vehicle as Derrick Slade. 438 00:22:30,115 --> 00:22:32,585 Derrick Slade was convicted of a homicide when I believe 439 00:22:32,685 --> 00:22:34,720 he was 14 or 15 years old. 440 00:22:34,820 --> 00:22:38,224 His nickname was "Soldier," and he was known 441 00:22:38,324 --> 00:22:40,492 to be extremely violent. 442 00:22:40,593 --> 00:22:43,128 Being face-to-face with a cold blooded killer, 443 00:22:43,229 --> 00:22:46,432 I was definitely lucky to get out of there, but I was also 444 00:22:46,532 --> 00:22:48,434 elated because I thought this could be the gun 445 00:22:48,534 --> 00:22:50,102 that could break this case wide open. 446 00:22:51,770 --> 00:22:54,974 Once I got the firearm, I was able to send that, 447 00:22:55,074 --> 00:22:59,578 along with the casings from each crime scene, to the FBI lab. 448 00:22:59,678 --> 00:23:00,846 They were able to link it 449 00:23:00,946 --> 00:23:03,716 to the Cory Billings attempted homicide, 450 00:23:03,816 --> 00:23:06,385 the AJ Bosfield homicide, 451 00:23:06,485 --> 00:23:08,654 as well as many different drive-by shootings, 452 00:23:08,754 --> 00:23:10,656 that had happened all over South Florida. 453 00:23:10,756 --> 00:23:12,558 So this was a huge breakthrough. 454 00:23:22,301 --> 00:23:25,371 Once we had Eric Hunter and Derrick Slade locked up, 455 00:23:25,471 --> 00:23:26,939 while you wanna have a sense of elation 456 00:23:27,039 --> 00:23:28,607 that they're off the street and you feel like 457 00:23:28,707 --> 00:23:30,442 you've accomplished your goal, 458 00:23:30,542 --> 00:23:32,177 this is really the beginning of the case. 459 00:23:33,846 --> 00:23:35,814 Eric Hunter is in jail, but he has connections 460 00:23:35,915 --> 00:23:38,050 outside of jail. 461 00:23:38,150 --> 00:23:41,353 The other gang members were still targeting victims 462 00:23:41,453 --> 00:23:42,755 on his orders. 463 00:23:43,923 --> 00:23:47,326 And if we didn't do something, he was gonna get time served 464 00:23:47,426 --> 00:23:48,527 and just walk out of jail. 465 00:23:50,029 --> 00:23:51,530 I sat down and explained to my boss, 466 00:23:51,630 --> 00:23:53,599 "I'm not only gonna put these guys in jail 467 00:23:53,699 --> 00:23:55,601 "for a few months, these guys are gonna go to jail 468 00:23:55,701 --> 00:23:56,969 for the rest of their lives." 469 00:23:59,405 --> 00:24:01,340 To take them down, we had to prove that they were 470 00:24:01,440 --> 00:24:03,242 an organized crime group. 471 00:24:03,342 --> 00:24:05,644 We have to show that they worked together, 472 00:24:05,744 --> 00:24:08,380 that they shared the proceeds of their crimes 473 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:10,716 and worked in unison to commit these crimes. 474 00:24:12,017 --> 00:24:14,420 And that's all part of a RICO case. 475 00:24:16,722 --> 00:24:18,257 RICO was originally designed 476 00:24:18,357 --> 00:24:19,758 to be used against the mafia. 477 00:24:19,858 --> 00:24:20,893 For the first time ever, 478 00:24:20,993 --> 00:24:23,562 the reputed heads of all five crime families 479 00:24:23,662 --> 00:24:27,232 in our town were hauled into court on one indictment. 480 00:24:27,333 --> 00:24:30,336 The RICO statute allows you to present in court 481 00:24:30,436 --> 00:24:32,972 evidence of a bunch of different crimes. 482 00:24:33,072 --> 00:24:35,174 It is literally an organized crime statute, 483 00:24:35,274 --> 00:24:38,477 but it's hard to do. It's rarely done. 484 00:24:38,577 --> 00:24:40,913 I was working with Paul Schwartz and Jeff Kaplan, 485 00:24:41,013 --> 00:24:42,548 who are legends. 486 00:24:42,648 --> 00:24:44,249 Usually, we're the ones asking the questions. 487 00:24:45,417 --> 00:24:48,520 They're known for doing big RICO cases. 488 00:24:48,620 --> 00:24:50,889 They are known for being aggressive and not stopping 489 00:24:50,990 --> 00:24:52,191 until they get their guys in jail. 490 00:24:53,559 --> 00:24:57,763 In order to build a RICO case, you need to explain this group. 491 00:24:57,863 --> 00:24:59,965 In this particular case, we really couldn't do it 492 00:25:00,065 --> 00:25:02,034 by just circumstantial evidence. 493 00:25:02,134 --> 00:25:05,337 Extremely difficult scenario, no cooperators, 494 00:25:05,437 --> 00:25:07,873 no undercover agents, no victims, nothing. 495 00:25:09,375 --> 00:25:12,378 We were concerned that Special Agent Box 496 00:25:12,478 --> 00:25:13,846 was somewhat inexperienced. 497 00:25:16,181 --> 00:25:20,919 But as time progressed, Jessica Box found a way 498 00:25:21,020 --> 00:25:22,788 to get things done. 499 00:25:24,256 --> 00:25:28,227 I spent upwards of a year going through social media 500 00:25:28,327 --> 00:25:32,765 and cellphones, thousands, if not more, images and messages 501 00:25:32,865 --> 00:25:34,166 back and forth. 502 00:25:34,266 --> 00:25:36,869 I needed information to show that they worked together, 503 00:25:36,969 --> 00:25:38,337 that they were an organization. 504 00:25:39,371 --> 00:25:41,373 When I found a new piece to the puzzle, 505 00:25:41,473 --> 00:25:44,109 I would get so excited. 506 00:25:44,209 --> 00:25:46,445 Jessica showed me social media posts 507 00:25:46,545 --> 00:25:50,249 from these gang members, ended with the word "onsight". 508 00:25:50,349 --> 00:25:51,517 And the derivation of that 509 00:25:51,617 --> 00:25:53,585 is that they will kill you on sight. 510 00:25:55,120 --> 00:25:56,822 And so, any piece of information 511 00:25:56,922 --> 00:25:58,257 where they used the word "onsight," 512 00:25:58,357 --> 00:26:01,393 I was able to take that and show that they are part 513 00:26:01,493 --> 00:26:02,694 of the Onsight Gang. 514 00:26:03,829 --> 00:26:06,165 We had a list of over 100 main subjects 515 00:26:06,265 --> 00:26:08,467 that we're concerned about were part 516 00:26:08,567 --> 00:26:09,568 of this violent group. 517 00:26:11,670 --> 00:26:13,906 So, we had significant information 518 00:26:14,006 --> 00:26:16,275 to explain the existence of this gang, 519 00:26:16,375 --> 00:26:18,010 but nothing significant enough 520 00:26:18,110 --> 00:26:20,546 to place him in prison for any length of time. 521 00:26:23,882 --> 00:26:26,718 As time went on, I was under pressure to finish the case. 522 00:26:28,120 --> 00:26:30,389 But we ran into roadblock after roadblock. 523 00:26:33,826 --> 00:26:36,862 It was very frustrating as a mother. 524 00:26:36,962 --> 00:26:39,565 At that time, there was no closure for me, 525 00:26:39,665 --> 00:26:41,100 because... 526 00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:42,367 I didn't know where we were going 527 00:26:43,702 --> 00:26:44,670 with this case. 528 00:26:47,573 --> 00:26:50,742 The people that killed my son, I want them to be accountable. 529 00:26:52,077 --> 00:26:53,378 There's a reason we have laws. 530 00:26:53,479 --> 00:26:55,347 Laws are supposed to protect the innocent, 531 00:26:56,582 --> 00:26:58,383 not protect the guilty. 532 00:27:05,290 --> 00:27:07,960 At this time, we still hadn't built the RICO case, 533 00:27:08,060 --> 00:27:09,228 and we didn't have enough evidence 534 00:27:09,328 --> 00:27:10,896 to hold Hunter any longer. 535 00:27:12,631 --> 00:27:15,400 He drove around the community very boldly. 536 00:27:16,969 --> 00:27:19,304 He was willing to kill anyone that wanted 537 00:27:19,404 --> 00:27:20,873 to work against him. 538 00:27:23,775 --> 00:27:25,978 One night, we went to church. 539 00:27:26,078 --> 00:27:29,248 We were coming home, and we were making a left 540 00:27:29,348 --> 00:27:30,516 onto our street... 541 00:27:32,317 --> 00:27:34,019 and a car came next to us. 542 00:27:37,356 --> 00:27:40,359 And I looked at my husband, and I looked at the car. 543 00:27:41,593 --> 00:27:42,861 He was going... 544 00:27:42,961 --> 00:27:44,329 same speed. 545 00:27:45,664 --> 00:27:48,433 It was, like, right next to us, and he just looked at me, 546 00:27:48,534 --> 00:27:49,535 and I looked at him. 547 00:27:55,707 --> 00:27:57,176 And then he went away. 548 00:27:59,077 --> 00:28:01,480 And I remember writing down the tag number 549 00:28:01,580 --> 00:28:02,915 and calling the detectives. 550 00:28:04,783 --> 00:28:07,186 I got a phone call back later on that night telling me, 551 00:28:07,286 --> 00:28:08,587 "Kathy... 552 00:28:09,555 --> 00:28:11,557 this is one of the guys that's involved with this case." 553 00:28:14,226 --> 00:28:15,527 It just-- it sent chills. 554 00:28:16,528 --> 00:28:17,763 It sent chills. 555 00:28:20,499 --> 00:28:24,269 Kathy Wilson had a legitimate reason to be concerned 556 00:28:24,369 --> 00:28:26,638 'cause Eric Hunter is very dangerous. 557 00:28:26,738 --> 00:28:29,174 Some people literally packed their entire family up 558 00:28:29,274 --> 00:28:32,411 and moved out of Florida because they were mentioned 559 00:28:32,511 --> 00:28:35,147 on a Facebook post by Eric Hunter. 560 00:28:35,247 --> 00:28:36,648 They were shooting at people's homes. 561 00:28:38,083 --> 00:28:39,418 I was scared for my family. 562 00:28:47,593 --> 00:28:51,029 Eddie, he died November 4th, of 2015. 563 00:28:52,497 --> 00:28:56,001 Every year, I go out to the garage where it happened. 564 00:28:56,101 --> 00:28:57,836 I light a candle. 565 00:28:57,936 --> 00:28:58,904 I play some of the songs 566 00:28:59,004 --> 00:29:00,639 that we used to listen to every day, 567 00:29:00,739 --> 00:29:03,008 and I'll sit out there for a few hours. 568 00:29:04,009 --> 00:29:05,544 Pay my respects... 569 00:29:06,878 --> 00:29:10,182 and to just give thanks and honor to Eddie 570 00:29:10,282 --> 00:29:13,185 for being such a real person and a good friend. 571 00:29:15,721 --> 00:29:17,656 Two years passed. 572 00:29:18,757 --> 00:29:21,093 In regards to the Police Department, 573 00:29:21,193 --> 00:29:23,228 I was like, "They'll never figure it out 574 00:29:23,328 --> 00:29:26,398 "because anything that's going on in the ghetto... 575 00:29:28,700 --> 00:29:30,969 they don't really care." 576 00:29:31,069 --> 00:29:32,037 It's how we're raised, 577 00:29:32,137 --> 00:29:34,139 it's what we're taught, and it's what we know. 578 00:29:34,239 --> 00:29:35,974 So I kinda-- I gave up on them. 579 00:29:39,645 --> 00:29:41,313 By this point, we were running out of options. 580 00:29:42,447 --> 00:29:44,416 I was told that to keep the case alive, 581 00:29:44,516 --> 00:29:46,885 we need someone on the inside. 582 00:29:46,985 --> 00:29:48,954 We need somebody to explain to us 583 00:29:49,054 --> 00:29:50,656 their organization. 584 00:29:50,756 --> 00:29:52,090 You need somebody to talk. 585 00:29:54,059 --> 00:29:55,861 Anyone that knew these gang members, 586 00:29:55,961 --> 00:29:57,396 I'd always ask them, 587 00:29:57,496 --> 00:29:59,898 "Who do you think would be the first to talk to me?" 588 00:29:59,998 --> 00:30:03,068 Without a doubt, everyone named Marcello Gordon. 589 00:30:03,168 --> 00:30:05,237 Marcello Gordon was a lifelong criminal, 590 00:30:05,337 --> 00:30:07,806 mostly violent crimes. 591 00:30:07,906 --> 00:30:10,075 Jessica Box had her laptop and showed him 592 00:30:10,175 --> 00:30:11,877 all the evidence that we had. 593 00:30:11,977 --> 00:30:15,213 You could tell that he was seriously thinking about it. 594 00:30:15,314 --> 00:30:16,748 We spoke to his mother. 595 00:30:16,848 --> 00:30:19,351 Uh, we explained just how much trouble he's in 596 00:30:19,451 --> 00:30:21,887 and how he's looking at the rest of his life in jail. 597 00:30:21,987 --> 00:30:25,590 And still, he refused. It was devastating. 598 00:30:28,660 --> 00:30:30,962 Just a couple days later, we were listening 599 00:30:31,063 --> 00:30:33,965 to Marcello Gordon and Derrick Slade's jail calls. 600 00:30:34,066 --> 00:30:36,001 We would monitor calls that were taking place 601 00:30:36,101 --> 00:30:39,638 between our suspects and people on the outside. 602 00:30:39,738 --> 00:30:41,740 The Onsight Gang were trying to find information 603 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:43,475 on Special Agent Box. 604 00:30:45,377 --> 00:30:47,779 It was clear that Eric Hunter and the Onsight Gang 605 00:30:47,879 --> 00:30:49,114 had my name. 606 00:30:50,415 --> 00:30:52,017 Is he looking for my address? 607 00:30:52,117 --> 00:30:54,586 Is he looking to come get me and do a drive-by shooting? 608 00:30:56,488 --> 00:30:59,558 I was really fearful of what might happen. 609 00:31:06,198 --> 00:31:08,367 One day, I get this phone call. 610 00:31:09,768 --> 00:31:11,570 "This is Jessica Box with the FBI." 611 00:31:11,670 --> 00:31:14,339 And I was like, "FBI? How you get my number? 612 00:31:14,439 --> 00:31:16,074 "Why you got my number, and what's going on? 613 00:31:16,174 --> 00:31:17,209 What did I do?" 614 00:31:18,310 --> 00:31:21,613 When we first started the investigation, I was told, 615 00:31:21,713 --> 00:31:24,216 "Don't bother talking to Veronica Gilchrist." 616 00:31:24,316 --> 00:31:26,351 They said, "She's anti-law enforcement. 617 00:31:26,451 --> 00:31:29,554 She won't work with you. She won't help you." 618 00:31:29,654 --> 00:31:33,358 In the Donald Johnston homicide, we still didn't know 619 00:31:33,458 --> 00:31:35,293 who the shooters were. 620 00:31:35,394 --> 00:31:37,229 So, I finally decided, "Let's go talk to her. 621 00:31:37,329 --> 00:31:38,463 What's the worst that could happen?" 622 00:31:40,632 --> 00:31:46,171 When I pull up, I'm literally looking for this big six-foot 623 00:31:46,271 --> 00:31:50,375 Harley-Davidson riding lady with probably a buzz cut 624 00:31:50,475 --> 00:31:51,810 or a mohawk. 625 00:31:51,910 --> 00:31:56,148 And I got this little bitty lady, 120 pounds soaking wet. 626 00:31:56,248 --> 00:31:58,884 And she looked like she makes the best gingerbread men. 627 00:32:01,353 --> 00:32:05,590 I remember the day so clearly. She walked in, polite, 628 00:32:05,690 --> 00:32:07,492 kind, 629 00:32:07,592 --> 00:32:08,660 and then tearful. 630 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:09,995 She told her story. 631 00:32:12,998 --> 00:32:16,802 I presented pictures of the main subjects of the case. 632 00:32:19,171 --> 00:32:20,705 We came to Eric Hunter. 633 00:32:22,641 --> 00:32:24,776 I was like, "He look familiar." 634 00:32:25,977 --> 00:32:28,180 And I sat there and I thought about it long and hard. 635 00:32:30,549 --> 00:32:36,121 I remember he actually came to the garage to buy weed 636 00:32:36,221 --> 00:32:38,156 at least three separate times. 637 00:32:39,357 --> 00:32:41,993 But it didn't dawn on me that, like, he's in here 638 00:32:43,261 --> 00:32:44,362 casing the place. 639 00:32:45,430 --> 00:32:48,233 Agent Box asked me, did I wanna testify? 640 00:32:49,634 --> 00:32:52,103 Eric Hunter and the Onsight Gang had a long track record 641 00:32:52,204 --> 00:32:53,672 of intimidating witnesses. 642 00:32:53,772 --> 00:32:55,841 He did multiple drive-by shootings on people 643 00:32:55,941 --> 00:32:57,843 that he thought would testify against him. 644 00:32:59,444 --> 00:33:01,680 Veronica knew this was very dangerous. 645 00:33:03,315 --> 00:33:08,119 If that's what I could do, to pay Eddie back, I was ready. 646 00:33:08,220 --> 00:33:10,055 Sit me on the stand. Give me the Bible. 647 00:33:10,155 --> 00:33:11,223 I'm bringin' my own. 648 00:33:11,323 --> 00:33:12,524 I wanna put them away, 649 00:33:12,624 --> 00:33:13,859 um... 650 00:33:13,959 --> 00:33:16,328 for the rest of their life and the afterlife. 651 00:33:16,428 --> 00:33:17,963 So, yeah... 652 00:33:21,433 --> 00:33:23,502 She was just so brave. 653 00:33:24,569 --> 00:33:27,806 And I was so inspired by her. 654 00:33:27,906 --> 00:33:30,842 And I think it's a lesson all of us need to have is, 655 00:33:30,942 --> 00:33:33,512 you always get back up, even when you're shot down. 656 00:33:36,848 --> 00:33:40,886 So I went back and looked at the Donald Johnston homicide. 657 00:33:40,986 --> 00:33:42,053 Inside the garage, 658 00:33:42,153 --> 00:33:45,023 we found multiple AK-47 cartridge casings. 659 00:33:46,491 --> 00:33:50,462 But outside, we found a single 9 millimeter casing. 660 00:33:50,562 --> 00:33:52,998 While all of the shooting was happening in the garage, 661 00:33:53,098 --> 00:33:55,233 one gunman was standing outside. 662 00:33:55,333 --> 00:33:57,903 I realized that this was actually very similar 663 00:33:58,003 --> 00:34:00,472 to the Cory Billings attempted homicide, 664 00:34:00,572 --> 00:34:03,542 where Eric Hunter was standing in the doorway, 665 00:34:03,642 --> 00:34:06,378 and 9 millimeter cartridge casings were found. 666 00:34:07,946 --> 00:34:09,781 So I started looking back through any photos 667 00:34:09,881 --> 00:34:11,650 of Eric Hunter taken around that time. 668 00:34:12,684 --> 00:34:14,786 As I dug deeper, I found a picture 669 00:34:14,886 --> 00:34:17,756 on Derrick Slade's social media. 670 00:34:17,856 --> 00:34:19,791 Eric Hunter is holding two liquor bottles 671 00:34:19,891 --> 00:34:21,693 and appears to be celebrating. 672 00:34:23,128 --> 00:34:25,063 This photo was posted just mere hours 673 00:34:25,163 --> 00:34:27,365 after the Cory Billings attempted homicide. 674 00:34:29,000 --> 00:34:31,369 Then I go on to Derrick Slade's cellphone 675 00:34:31,469 --> 00:34:34,739 and look through the photos from that same night, 676 00:34:34,839 --> 00:34:37,442 and lo and behold, I find a very similar image 677 00:34:37,542 --> 00:34:40,045 of Eric Hunter holding the two liquor bottles. 678 00:34:41,146 --> 00:34:43,281 But one major thing is different. 679 00:34:43,381 --> 00:34:44,616 There was the 9 millimeter gun 680 00:34:44,716 --> 00:34:45,884 lying right next to him. 681 00:34:47,452 --> 00:34:49,120 Of course, Derrick Slade was smart enough 682 00:34:49,220 --> 00:34:50,889 not to post the image of the gun, 683 00:34:50,989 --> 00:34:52,857 but the pictures are almost identical. 684 00:34:52,958 --> 00:34:54,225 You can actually see from the timestamps 685 00:34:54,326 --> 00:34:55,860 that they were taken just minutes apart. 686 00:34:57,529 --> 00:35:00,465 It was heart-wrenching to know that they could attempt 687 00:35:00,565 --> 00:35:02,734 to kill somebody... 688 00:35:02,834 --> 00:35:06,304 ...and later on, not only celebrate, but post it 689 00:35:06,404 --> 00:35:08,440 to social media in a bragging way. 690 00:35:11,743 --> 00:35:14,412 That picture was a key piece of information to show us 691 00:35:14,512 --> 00:35:17,382 that that gun was in fact with them that night. 692 00:35:18,650 --> 00:35:19,951 But we had to develop evidence 693 00:35:20,051 --> 00:35:22,187 as to who actually fired those shots. 694 00:35:23,555 --> 00:35:27,092 Because the clarity of the video was not very good, 695 00:35:27,192 --> 00:35:29,127 we sent it to a movie production company, 696 00:35:29,227 --> 00:35:30,495 who tried to enhance it. 697 00:35:36,334 --> 00:35:37,769 It was much clearer. 698 00:35:38,870 --> 00:35:40,839 If we can identify one of the individuals 699 00:35:40,939 --> 00:35:43,742 depicted in there, it would certainly increase the pressure 700 00:35:43,842 --> 00:35:46,845 on them to cooperate and give us the structure of the gang. 701 00:35:49,914 --> 00:35:52,183 The first suspect that came in and shot at the dog... 702 00:35:53,551 --> 00:35:56,855 got a clean shot of his face right under a light. 703 00:35:58,456 --> 00:36:01,726 He had a very identifiable cross tattoo on his forehead. 704 00:36:03,461 --> 00:36:05,597 And I knew right then, it was Marcello Gordon. 705 00:36:16,474 --> 00:36:18,677 Unless Marcello Gordon cooperated, 706 00:36:18,777 --> 00:36:21,713 I knew that we would never get a RICO case. 707 00:36:21,813 --> 00:36:24,282 I knew that the rest of the guys would walk out of jail 708 00:36:24,382 --> 00:36:26,051 and commit murder again. 709 00:36:27,552 --> 00:36:28,987 We went over to the jail 710 00:36:29,087 --> 00:36:30,822 and we showed him the videotape. 711 00:36:32,190 --> 00:36:33,358 We explained to him that we thought 712 00:36:33,458 --> 00:36:34,826 it was overwhelming evidence, 713 00:36:34,926 --> 00:36:36,661 and that just that alone is gonna give him 714 00:36:36,761 --> 00:36:37,829 a life sentence. 715 00:36:38,897 --> 00:36:39,964 He teared up. 716 00:36:40,065 --> 00:36:41,966 He was very emotional about watching it, 717 00:36:42,067 --> 00:36:44,402 um, and still refused to talk to us. 718 00:36:45,336 --> 00:36:50,308 I looked at him in the eye, I said, "This case is my life." 719 00:36:50,408 --> 00:36:53,044 I sleep and think about it. I dream about it. 720 00:36:53,144 --> 00:36:56,915 I-- I wake up and I work it all the way 721 00:36:57,015 --> 00:36:58,450 till 10 or 11 o'clock at night. 722 00:36:58,550 --> 00:37:00,018 This is all that I do. 723 00:37:00,118 --> 00:37:01,419 This is how dedicated I am. 724 00:37:01,519 --> 00:37:03,521 This is-- I will not stop until you're in jail 725 00:37:03,621 --> 00:37:05,223 for the rest of your life. 726 00:37:06,925 --> 00:37:09,094 Marcello Gordon lifted his T-shirt to show us 727 00:37:09,194 --> 00:37:12,530 he had a large tattoo on his body 728 00:37:12,630 --> 00:37:13,798 that said "Onsight". 729 00:37:15,266 --> 00:37:16,434 This was the moment 730 00:37:16,534 --> 00:37:19,070 Marcello Gordon decided to cooperate. 731 00:37:20,371 --> 00:37:22,841 He opened up to us and began to reveal 732 00:37:22,941 --> 00:37:25,443 the missing pieces of the puzzle. 733 00:37:25,543 --> 00:37:27,378 He was able to show how Eric Hunter 734 00:37:27,479 --> 00:37:30,715 would give them guns or tell them who to rob. 735 00:37:30,815 --> 00:37:32,517 "Hunter was the leader. 736 00:37:32,617 --> 00:37:34,953 "Derrick Slade and I were the enforcers. 737 00:37:35,053 --> 00:37:37,489 We had other individuals who would help us out." 738 00:37:37,589 --> 00:37:39,657 He described who those individuals were. 739 00:37:39,758 --> 00:37:41,359 And they would share the loot. 740 00:37:43,128 --> 00:37:46,064 He told us the Onsight Gang was responsible for the murder 741 00:37:46,164 --> 00:37:47,866 of Donald Johnston, 742 00:37:47,966 --> 00:37:49,033 AJ Bosfield, 743 00:37:49,134 --> 00:37:51,436 the attempted murder of Cory Billings, 744 00:37:51,536 --> 00:37:53,438 and Zoe Gotti. 745 00:37:53,538 --> 00:37:56,841 It's almost like you have this kind of iceberg, 746 00:37:56,941 --> 00:37:58,977 and all of a sudden it starts breaking to pieces, 747 00:37:59,077 --> 00:38:01,646 and it just makes it easier to get the next person and say, 748 00:38:01,746 --> 00:38:05,350 "Hey, Marcello Gordon's cooperating, you're in trouble." 749 00:38:07,285 --> 00:38:10,155 It's ironic how a gang that built 750 00:38:10,255 --> 00:38:13,057 their entire reputation on targeting victims 751 00:38:13,158 --> 00:38:15,393 that they didn't think would work with law enforcement 752 00:38:15,493 --> 00:38:17,796 ultimately flipped 753 00:38:17,896 --> 00:38:20,665 and decided to not only talk to law enforcement, 754 00:38:20,765 --> 00:38:22,901 but also get on the stand and testify 755 00:38:23,001 --> 00:38:24,669 against one of their own. 756 00:38:24,769 --> 00:38:26,838 Part of a vicious gang, responsible from everything 757 00:38:26,938 --> 00:38:29,274 to home invasions to murders. 758 00:38:29,374 --> 00:38:32,443 That's how the feds described these men who are now facing 759 00:38:32,544 --> 00:38:34,512 federal charges tonight. 760 00:38:34,612 --> 00:38:36,714 You look at them and... 761 00:38:37,916 --> 00:38:41,019 they could be anybody's son, 762 00:38:41,119 --> 00:38:42,220 anybody's brother. 763 00:38:44,756 --> 00:38:45,924 It's not until... 764 00:38:47,192 --> 00:38:49,060 they opened their mouth and they started speaking. 765 00:38:51,129 --> 00:38:52,730 And they talk about everything they've done. 766 00:38:54,866 --> 00:38:55,934 I don't hate. 767 00:38:57,602 --> 00:38:59,737 But I do recognize hatred, and I do recognize evil. 768 00:39:01,706 --> 00:39:03,041 Marcello Gordon told us 769 00:39:03,141 --> 00:39:05,577 at the Donald Johnston homicide, 770 00:39:05,677 --> 00:39:09,380 when they approached the garage, Hunter was outside, 771 00:39:10,615 --> 00:39:12,784 and that they started opening up the garage. 772 00:39:13,818 --> 00:39:16,287 Slade was just shooting. 773 00:39:16,387 --> 00:39:18,323 And Slade was the one who shot, 774 00:39:18,423 --> 00:39:19,657 um... 775 00:39:19,757 --> 00:39:20,725 Donald Johnston. 776 00:39:22,260 --> 00:39:24,996 I want who did this to my son to pay for it. 777 00:39:29,367 --> 00:39:33,037 Veronica stood up in court each time and faced the people 778 00:39:33,137 --> 00:39:35,039 that literally gunned her down. 779 00:39:36,274 --> 00:39:39,577 And I cannot imagine how scary that must be. 780 00:39:39,677 --> 00:39:42,247 Uh, their families were sitting in court behind them. 781 00:39:42,347 --> 00:39:45,116 And I'm sure she was worried about retaliation. 782 00:39:45,216 --> 00:39:48,920 But she stood there and let the court and the judge 783 00:39:49,020 --> 00:39:51,155 know exactly what she went through. 784 00:39:51,256 --> 00:39:54,926 I spoke my piece and wish them no luck in hell. 785 00:39:57,662 --> 00:39:59,330 Gordon was sentenced to 34 years. 786 00:40:00,865 --> 00:40:05,303 Derrick Slade was sentenced to two life terms, plus 30 years. 787 00:40:05,403 --> 00:40:07,972 In Eric Hunter's case, he got 39 years. 788 00:40:12,010 --> 00:40:13,945 If it wasn't for Special Agent Box, 789 00:40:14,045 --> 00:40:16,681 I don't know that we'd be sitting here today. 790 00:40:16,781 --> 00:40:18,383 When this case looked like it would stall, 791 00:40:18,483 --> 00:40:19,918 and we had nothing, 792 00:40:20,018 --> 00:40:22,186 she had that tenacity and that drive 793 00:40:22,287 --> 00:40:26,691 to continue to work this case, year after year after year, 794 00:40:27,926 --> 00:40:31,262 to bring so much closure to a lot of victims 795 00:40:32,330 --> 00:40:33,798 and justice for their families. 796 00:40:33,898 --> 00:40:35,166 Give me a hug. 797 00:40:35,266 --> 00:40:37,602 It's been so long. 798 00:40:39,771 --> 00:40:42,373 You've made my job worth it. 799 00:40:43,942 --> 00:40:47,145 Any moment when I am questioning or I'm tired 800 00:40:47,245 --> 00:40:48,713 or I don't want to keep going 801 00:40:48,813 --> 00:40:50,181 or I don't want another case, 802 00:40:50,281 --> 00:40:51,416 I think of you. 803 00:40:51,516 --> 00:40:53,885 I have a different outlook at, you know, dealing 804 00:40:53,985 --> 00:40:55,520 with law enforcement now. 805 00:40:55,620 --> 00:40:57,088 I know it was sleepless nights. 806 00:40:57,188 --> 00:40:59,691 I know times where you probably did just wanna give up, 807 00:40:59,791 --> 00:41:01,893 but you never gave up on... 808 00:41:01,993 --> 00:41:03,728 I feel like you didn't give up on me. 809 00:41:03,828 --> 00:41:06,164 Now I can sleep peacefully at night. 810 00:41:06,264 --> 00:41:07,665 And I just thank you for that. 811 00:41:07,765 --> 00:41:09,100 You know, you my hero, girl. 812 00:41:11,002 --> 00:41:12,737 - Yeah. - We did it, we did it. 813 00:41:16,641 --> 00:41:18,443 Next time on "FEDS." 814 00:41:19,711 --> 00:41:22,547 He called himself the next John Wick. 815 00:41:23,781 --> 00:41:25,416 I just screamed to the top of my lungs. 816 00:41:28,453 --> 00:41:31,589 He's a real-life murder-for-money hitman. 817 00:41:33,324 --> 00:41:35,526 No words to explain that feeling. 63887
