CLEVELAND (WJW) – Fifteen alleged gang members named in an unsealed indictment face drug and weapons charges, the Department of Justice announced on Friday.
The indictment accuses the 15 suspects of being part of the Fully Blooded Felons, a violent street gang that trafficked drugs across Northeast Ohio and inside Ohio prisons.
Prosecutors say that, between January 2022 and April 2024, the gang members helped import and distribute dangerous drugs like fentanyl, methamphetamine, cocaine and buprenorphine in the area.
Authorities allege that the crime organization, believed to be led by Raven Mullins, 34, coordinated drug deals out of two apartments at the Cedar Estates Apartments along Cedar Avenue in Cleveland.
