Miami, Florida – A rash of violence plagued Broward County from 2015 to 2021, leading to federal charges against alleged members of a gang-based criminal enterprise.
Eric Hunter, 28, aka ‘E’ or ‘Onsight Eno,’ and Derrick Slade, 27, aka ‘D’ or ‘Solja,’ were arraigned today in federal magistrate court in Ft. Lauderdale. Gregory Stickney, 31, aka ‘Gucci Greg,’ was arraigned on October 18.
According to the superseding indictment, from 2015 through October 2021, the Onsight gang operated as a criminal enterprise, with an identity, a hierarchy, and a multi-layered purpose. The gang’s name (Onsight) reflected its identity: an enterprise with members who would kill and commit other extreme acts of violence without hesitation, says the charging document.
It is alleged that Hunter was a leader of the enterprise, at the top of the hierarchy, and that he planned, organized, and supervised the gang’s criminal ventures. Slade, Stickney and others executed those criminal ventures, which included armed home invasions, armed robberies, assaults, attempted murders, and murders, says the superseding indictment.
Hunter, Slade, and Stickney are each charged with RICO conspiracy, Hobbs Act conspiracy, conspiracy to use or carry a firearm during a crime of violence, causing the death of a person by using a firearm, various counts of Hobbs Act robbery, and various counts of using or carrying a firearm during a crime of violence. Each defendant faces a statutory maximum of life imprisonment or death.
This prosecution was part of Operation Blood Pressure, which is a result of the ongoing efforts by the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force (OCDETF). The principal mission of the OCDETF program is to identify, disrupt, and dismantle the highest-level drug traffickers, money launderers, and other priority transnational criminal organizations that threaten the citizens of the United States using a prosecutor-led, intelligence-driven, multi-agency approach to combat transnational organized crime.
A superseding indictment is only an accusation, and defendants are presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty.
