Eric D. Mosley, Conspiracy to Possess with Intent to Distribute Controlled Substances, Kentucky 2024

In a major blow to the ‘Everybody Shines Together’ street gang, Eric D. Mosley, 33, of Louisville, was sentenced to 20 years in prison for conspiracy to possess with intent to distribute controlled substances. This sentence comes as part of a larger federal drug and gun conspiracy involving the ‘Everybody Shines Together’ street gang.

Mosley was also convicted of distribution of methamphetamine, possession with intent to distribute cocaine, possession of a firearm in furtherance of drug trafficking, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and possession of a stolen motor vehicle.

The sentencing of Mosley marks the end of a years-long collaborative effort across all levels of law enforcement to put some of Louisville’s most hardened criminals behind bars and disrupt one of the area’s most consequential street gangs.

Mosley was prohibited from possessing a firearm because he had previously been convicted of the following felony offenses. On December 1, 2015, in Jefferson Circuit Court, Mosley was convicted of enhanced possession of a controlled substance in the first degree, enhanced possession of drug paraphernalia, enhanced possession of marijuana, and enhanced possession of heroin. On December 1, 2014, in Jefferson Circuit Court, Mosley was convicted of enhanced trafficking in a controlled substance in the first degree, first offense, less than 4 grams of cocaine, receiving stolen property (firearm), enhanced possession of marijuana, and trafficking in a controlled substance in the first degree, first offense (less than 2 grams of heroin).

U.S. Attorney Michael A. Bennett commended the outstanding work of prosecutors, federal law enforcement agents, and local law enforcement partners who worked tirelessly to ensure the successful prosecution of the defendants in this case.

The ‘Everybody Shines Together’ street gang has been a significant problem for the city of Louisville, and this sentence brings hope to the community that justice is being served.

Mosley was sentenced on October 10, 2024, to 20 years in prison, followed by 5 years of supervised release.
