D.A. Bragg: Ten Charged in Takedown of Violent Criminal Enterprise Linked to Homicide, Robberies and Shootings

“As alleged, O.E.D. wreaked havoc on our streets,” said District Attorney Bragg. “This carefully structured criminal enterprise developed elaborate schemes to carry out robberies and violence, including tracking their victims before premeditated attacks. Today we have made New Yorkers safer by taking major violence drivers off the street, but we know we have much more work to do.”
