Paris DiMarco Moffett, linked to a notorious Eddy Rock street gang was sentenced to 10 years in prison Friday in a federal drug case.

Paris DiMarco Moffett, 30, was arrested in 2007 after a raid at the south Novato apartment he shared with his girlfriend, Delicia Mitchell. Authorities found a large stash of narcotics and a handgun in the apartment, arrested both Moffett and Mitchell, and seized four children in the home, including twin infants.
Authorities said Moffett was a member of the Eddy Rock gang, one of several street gangs accused of terrorizing the Western Addition neighborhood of San Francisco. The city attorney issued an injunction in 2007 barring the gangs from "safety zones" in the neighborhood.Moffett pleaded guilty to possessing 183 grams of crack cocaine at the apartment, or about 6.5 ounces, and possessing a loaded Colt .45-caliber semi-automatic pistol used in his drug trafficking. He was sentenced Friday in U.S. District Court in San Francisco.Moffett's lawyer, Randall Knox, called the outcome "unfortunate.""I'm hopeful that when he gets out he'll be able to lead a productive, law-abiding life," Knox said.Mitchell pleaded guilty to possession with intent to distribute ecstasy.Under her plea agreement, she is expected to receive probation when she is sentenced in March.

It is very unfortunate that this piece of trash is still alive and has only recieved the mandatory minimum sentence of 19 years. The judge messed up by not giving this known gang leader life as he could have.

Timothy “Fuzzy” Timms, a 45-year-old member of the Hells Angels Motorcycle club, stood up Monday for his First Amendment right to freedom of expression. Timms, a resident of the San Diego community of South Park, refused to take off a black leather vest with the motorcycle club's “death's head” insignia when he reported for jury duty. He's a big burly man, 5 feet 8 inches, 250 pounds, with a full beard and auburn-colored, shoulder-length hair. At 7:45 a.m., Timms' stance got him booted from the San Diego Superior Court's Hall of Justice by sheriff's deputies, along with another Hells Angel who also refused to remove his insignia vest. Nine hours later, representatives of both the Superior Court and the sheriff's department apologized to Timms and club member Mick Rush for “misunderstanding” an order issued April 24 by Superior Court Judge Jeffrey Fraser. Rush also had been reporting for jury duty. “It all boils down to a misunderstanding of Judge Fraser'

LaAunzae was a Vice Lord, and Donald Ragland was a Gangster Disciple

2005 execution-style murder in Frayser was a case marked by "gangs, guns and death." And not incidentally, they added, there was an element of revenge when defendant Donald Ragland Jr. shot 26-year-old LaAunzae Grady three times in the back on a cold December afternoon outside of St. Elmo's Market."He didn't have a problem taking this job, because LaAunzae had killed his brother five or six years before this," gang unit prosecutor Ray Lepone told a Criminal Court jury. "LaAunzae was a Vice Lord, and Donald Ragland was a Gangster Disciple."Asst. Public Defender Trent Hall said prosecutors would not be able to prove their case and asked jurors to acquit Ragland, 27, of first-degree murder.On Wednesday, jurors watched a surveillance video from the store that showed an apparently nervous Grady looking out the front door of the store several times before finally leaving.A half-dozen loud gunshots then quickly follow, though the shooting on the outside p
