34-year-old D.C. man who authorities said is the leader of a violent drug gang was sentenced to 45 years Friday for his role in two murders and other crimes.
David Wilson, the alleged leader of the Congress Park Crew, was sentenced in D.C. federal court. He was one of six defendants who went on trial in 2007 for multiple crimes, including crack cocaine dealing, armed robbery, attempted murder and murder. The trial lasted eight months.
The jury in the trial acquitted the six defendants of the charged conspiracy in this case. But the jury convicted them on 18 other felony charges stemming from violence and drug-dealing.
Wilson was convicted of a total of 11 charges, including two counts of first degree murder while armed and various drug charges.
The murder charges stem from the 1998 slayings of Ronnie “Squid” Middleton and Sabrina Bradley. Authorities said Wilson killed them as part of a gang turf war.
