Mr. Schiff:
Long prison terms, life for some, for gang members who put fear
into people living in Maryland...
Mr.
Maddox: "There's a neighborhood in West Baltimore called
Lexington Terrace; it's an apartment-type complex."
Mr. Schiff:
That's FBI Special Agent Barry Maddox in Baltimore...
Mr.
Maddox: "Several individuals became known as the 'Lexington
Terrace Boys.' They had been raised in that environment which,
unfortunately, was a very bad environment with drugs and violence
throughout their life. As they became teenagers and young 20s,
they became more and more involved in the drug trade."
Mr. Schiff:
Maddox says the gang was involved in several murders. FBI Agents
worked with Baltimore City and County Police and the city's Housing
Authority hunting down the gang...
Mr.
Maddox: "By approaching some lower level dealers, if you
will, or some people that got arrested in a lower level position,
they would cooperate and there was also some cooperative witnesses
developed."
Mr. Schiff:
With that help and surveillance, five gang members were convicted
at trial and sent to prison. I'm Neal Schiff and that's the FBI's
Closed Case of the Week."
