The Worst Day: Lawyers for 9/11 Families and Brett Eagleson Demand Release of Secret FBI investigation of Saudi Kingdom Links to 9/11 Terrorists.

THE WORST DAY TUESDAY 9/11/2001. Lawyers for 9/11 Families and Brett Eagleson demand release of secret FBI probe docs on Saudi involvement in 9/11 terror attack. Rare second chance to grill Saudi officials on alleged links to September 11 hijackers.The first two 9/11 hijackers in the U.S. — Nawaf Al-Hazmi and Khalid Al-Mihdhar — arrived in Los Angeles on Jan. 15, 2000, without being able to speak English. Yet, records show, they made it to San Diego where they took flying lessons — and flunked out — rented an apartment, and attended a mosque. They were both Saudi nationals. But how did they afford it all? 

That’s what lawyers asked Saudi officials Omar al-Bayoumi, June 9-11; Musaed al-Jarrah, next to be questioned June 17-18; and, last but not least, Fahad al-Thumairy, June 28-30. The interviews took place by video with Saudi officials checking in from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. “These depositions are the most important of them all. It’s big,” said Brett Eagleson of Connecticut, who was 15 years old when his dad died while working at the Twin Towers on 9/11.

UPDATE SEPT 9th, 2021: ABC ACTION NEWS 9/11 SUPPORT NETWORK IN SARASOTA: Click image above for ABC News video and print story. $4,000 phone bills fished from the trash/ Sarasota private investigator Bill Warner started his own investigation in 2002. “They were here, in my neighborhood. So I had to look at it, kept looking at it,” Bill Warner said, he partnered with police, sheriff’s deputies and was eventually paid by ICE for providing surveillance photos and phone bills he collected from the garbage cans of people of interest. Bill Warner said some of the cell phone bills he collected were 35-to-40 pages long, with calls made to phone numbers located all over the world. At that time, cell phone and long-distance companies charged by the minute for calls. “The bills you could see they were $1,200, $1500, $2,000, sometimes even $4,000 a month,” Bill Warner said. ”These are guys living in duplexes, driving old cars, who don’t have a job, see more CLICK HERE.

NYP writes: Pressure is building on the President to release secret FBI documents showing Saudi Arabia’s alleged complicity in the 9/11 terror attacks, with families of the victims accusing the US government of letting a Middle East ally “get away with the murder of our loved ones.” A group of 22 New York and New Jersey federal lawmakers, including lone Republican Nicole Malliotakis and NY Sens. Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, sent a letter to US Attorney General Merrick Garland, challenging the “state secrets privilege” that ex-Presidents Trump, Obama and Bush invoked to block release of a classified 16-page FBI report. 

Relatives of those killed on 9/11 or from illnesses triggered by Ground Zero toxins applauded last week’s missive. “After nearly 20 years, it is long past time that the American public learned the extent of Saudi Arabia’s role in 9/11,” said Brett Eagleson, who was 15 when his father was killed in the South Tower collapse. Evidence of Saudi involvement in the terror attack emerged in a 2012 FBI memo as part of its Operation Encore investigation from 2007 to 2016. The heavily redacted four-page document identified three senior Saudi government officials who helped provide two 9/11 hijackers with living quarters, financial aid, flight lessons and driver’s licenses in California — allegedly knowing they “were here to commit an act of terrorism.” One of the officials, Musaed Jarrah, was working in the Saudi Embassy in Washington. 

OPERATION ENCORE: highly censored FBI report made public then showed that in October 2012 federal prosecutors and FBI agents in New York City were actively exploring filing charges against a suspect (Osama “Sam” Mustafa) for providing material support to Saudi-born 9/11 hijackers Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Mihdhar. A key aspect of the 9/11 families’ demands is for access to records about Operation Encore, an FBI investigation into the Saudi role in 9/11 terror attacks. A highly censored FBI report made public then showed that in October 2012 federal prosecutors and FBI agents in New York City were actively exploring filing charges against a suspect for providing material support to Saudi-born 9/11 hijackers Nawaf al-Hazmi and Khalid al-Mihdhar, who with three other terrorists crashed American Airlines Flight 77 into the Pentagon in 2001. The suspect’s identify was censored. The report contains several bullet points about individuals with ties to Hazmi and/or Mihdhar. All of the names are redacted, but one name is discernible from the available information: former Tampa resident Osama “Sam” Mustafa. Prior to 9/11, Osama Mustafa owned a gas station and several used car lots in La Mesa a suburb of San Diego where future hijacker Hazmi worked for about a month in the fall of 2000. Mustafa previously had been the subject of an FBI counterterrorism investigation. 

Tampa's Osama Mustafa is/was a high ranking member of the PFLP terrorist organization. The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) is a secular Palestinian Marxist–Leninist and revolutionary socialist organization founded in 1967 by George Habash. It has consistently been the second-largest of the groups forming the Palestine Liberation Organization (the PLO, founded in 1964), the largest being Fatah (founded in 1959). The 2012 FBI report recounts Mustafa’s May 15, 2012, arrest in Tampa for Treasury check fraud filed by a U.S. Attorney in Virginia. Court records say the case involved a $17 million tax-refund fraud scheme, and that Mustafa was found guilty in April 2013. According to the report, federal authorities in Tampa had offered Mustafa a deal on Sept. 17, 2012. Osama Sam Mustafa owned used car lots in San Diego CA prior to 9/11 and later in Tampa Fl.

Operation Encore was a 2002 FBI investigation into Saudi Arabian links to the September 11 attacks. From the day of the attacks, the trail seemed to point to Saudi Arabia. First, there was the inescapable fact that, like Osama bin Laden, 15 of the 19 hijackers were Saudis. The first two flew in to Los Angeles in January 2000 and quickly made their way to a Saudi mosque. When they moved to San Diego a few weeks later, they turned for help to a middle-aged Saudi student whom the FBI suspected of spying for the kingdom. The FBI’s 9/11 investigation, which was given the ungainly name Penttbom (a reference to the Pentagon and the twin towers), eventually compiled a detailed chronology of all 19 hijackers’ movements, financial transactions and other activities. The 2012 FBI report takes a longer look at Mohdar Abdullah, who “played a key role facilitating the daily lives and assisting future Flight 77 hijackers.” His story is recounted in a section of the report titled “Details on Mohdar Abdullah and his connection [redacted].” National security is cited for that redaction, and for much of the first couple of sentences in the section. But the agents were frustrated by one gaping hole in the timeline: They could not account for the first two weeks after Hazmi and Mihdhar landed at Los Angeles International Airport on Jan. 15, 2000. Their arrival was the first major step in bin Laden’s plot to attack the United States, and it was a risky one. Both young men had trained and fought as jihadists in Bosnia and Afghanistan. They were known to the NSA and the CIA partly declassified summary of the Encore case, written in 2012 by New York investigators, cites “evidence” that a Saudi official whose name is redacted “tasked al-Thumairy and al-Bayoumi with assisting the hijackers.” 

According to several people familiar with the document, it refers to a Saudi religious official with diplomatic status who served in the United States. But the FBI recently discounted the idea that the Saudi was a central figure in a support network. Even so, they flew to the United States under their real names, passing through immigration with the tourist visas stamped in their Saudi passports. That year, the arrival on the Encore team of another veteran New York detective, Efrain Vazquez, gave the case a shot of energy. It didn’t last long. Investigators tried again to recruit Mohdar Abdullah, who had moved to Sweden, as a cooperating witness, but he refused. Reached in Stockholm, Abdullah told us he would not discuss details of his dealings with the hijackers, but railed at his treatment by American authorities. “The hijackers associated with many people in California,” he said. “Nothing happened to any of them like what happened to me. This case keeps haunting me.”

The FBI agent who led the post 9/11 investigation of Saudis who moved out of their Sarasota-area home under suspicious circumstances two weeks before the 2001 al Qaeda attacks urged the FBI to seek information from the CIA about whether they assisted the terrorist hijackers. That’s among the final disclosures the FBI made recently to conclude a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit brought by Florida Bulldog in 2012 seeking records of a bureau investigation that was once so secret its existence was withheld from both Congress and the 9/11 Commission. News that the FBI agent who led the probe wanted to ratchet it up by contacting the CIA for further information about the Saudis with ties to the Royal Family was redacted from an explosive April 16, 2002 FBI report. Most significantly, the heavily censored report written by FBI Agent Gregory Sheffield said agents had found “many connections” between the Sarasota Saudis and the hijackers who trained at a nearby airport. The report noted a “family member… was a flight student at Huffman Aviation,” where two of the 9/11 hijack pilots trained. “For these reasons, the FBI is interested in determining if the Central Intelligence Agency has any investigative interest or reason to investigate,” the newly released information says. “Any information which the CIA could provide to the FBI would be useful in the FBI investigation.” The FBI was investigating Abdulazziz al-Hijji; his wife, Anoud, and her father, Esam Ghazzawi, a wealthy Saudi businessman with ties to the kingdom’s ruling House of Saud and international and American political leaders.

3 men recorded a rap song calling themselves “The Arab Assassins” prior to 9/11/2001 at the GHC Recording Studio at 2195 Porter Lake Dr, Sarasota, Florida, business is inactive according to Florida Dept of State records. GHC Recording Studio was created twenty five years ago on 18th December 2000. Here are some of the lyrics from the rap song 'Arab Assassins' : "I'm heartless an animal next on God's list". Glocks and clips that blend with the fog and mist (planes coming out of the sky). We could die any day, that’s why we pray for such purposes. Five times a day, heads at concrete surfaces. It’s murderous. Arab Assassins, you’ve heard of us.” “The US will remember this.” A mysterious Arab rap band records a CD, which includes songs apparently about upcoming terrorist attacks. The group, called the Arab Assassins, records its songs at the GHC Recording Studio in Sarasota, Florida. According to the Sarasota Herald-Tribune, their lyrics “range from generic references to Palestinian beliefs to verses that could be considered by some as a warning of what unfolded in New York City and Washington, DC” on 9/11. These refer to subjects such as bombings, New York, and fundamentalist Islamic martyrs. Lyrics include, “I know I’m going to die,” “I’m next on God’s list,” “Partners torn, transformed to martyrs,” “to turn wives into widows,” and “the US will remember this.” After 9/11, the recording studio’s owner Chris Musgrave will comment, “There are some weird coincidences here.” The rap group is made up of three brothers who claim to be from Brooklyn. Yet officials with the Recording Industry Association of America later say they have never heard of the Arab Assassins, and none of the large Internet music sites offer any recordings by them. After recording several songs at the studio, the Arab Assassins take six copies of their CD, and then leave a telephone number that is listed as disconnected. The day after 9/11, the local FBI will seize a copy of the CD from the studio, but offer no comments to the press on the band.

According to newly released documents in the Florida Bulldog Freedom of Information lawsuit filed on the Tampa FBI there appears to have been a Confidential Informant (CI) working along with local law enforcement (ICE & Sarasota Police Dept) in providing information to the FBI during the 2002 Secret Sarasota investigation into a support network for the 9/11 hijack pilots when they were in the Sarasota Fl area. During the time period from late 2002 to end of 2003 Imam Muneer Arafat was paid $35,000 by the FBI to work as a CI in a Sarasota investigation, he revealed this information in open court during the Sami Al-Arain trial in Tampa as reported by the Tampa Trib, ‘Cleric Testifies in Al Arian Trial’ By MICHAEL FECHTER. Arafat was arrested in Sarasota Fl in Nov 2002 by ICE for overstaying his visa, he was shipped off to St Louis to testify before a Federal Grand Jury investigating people with links to 9/11 including his roommate Ziyad Khaleel as reported by the St Louis Post-Dispatch newspaper. When Arafat returned to Sarasota in December of 2002 he was now working for the FBI.

ISLAMIC CHARITIES FUNDING AL-QAEDA & OPERATIVES IN USA: “Procurement Agent” for bin Laden, Ziyad Khaleel (a.k.a. Ziyad Sadaqa). In November 1996, the FBI monitors the progress of bin Laden buying a new satellite phone and tracks the purchase to Ziyad Khaleel, a US citizen and radical militant living in Missouri with Imam Muneer Arafat (later in Sarasota Fl). Newsweek will later say that this puts the Sudan-based charity Islamic American Relief Agency (IARA) “on the FBI’s radar screen” because Ziyad Khaleel is one of IARA’s eight regional US directors. Furthermore, Ziyad Khaleel and his roommate is Imam Muneer Arafat are working for the Islamic Association for Palestine (IAP), a Hamas-linked organization co-founded by Mousa Abu Marzook. US intelligence will later reveal that in the late 1990s, IARA is regularly funding al-Qaeda. For instance, it has evidence of IARA giving hundreds of thousands of dollars to bin Laden in 1999. December 1999 Police in Jordan detain Ziyad Khaleel, who the FBI calls a Florida-based “procurement agent” for Osama bin Laden. 

The FBI says Khaleel’s role is to “procure computers, satellite telephones, and covert surveillance equipment” for al-Qaeda leaders, his roommate was Imam Muneer Arafat who moved to Sarasota Fl in early 2000. Ziyad Khaleel and Muneer Arafat were fundraisers for Islamic African Relief Agency and the Holy Land Foundation both designated terrorist supporters of Hamas and Al-Qaeda. UPDATE August 11th, 2021 ABC Action News Tampa I-Team Investigator Adam Walser and Photojournalist Matt McGlashen appear to have some interest in my involvement in a 2002 Sarasota Fl investigation into a terrorist support network that included Imam Muneer Arafat, "We'll see". 

VIDEO ABC7 NEWS SUNCOAST WWSB: Six years ago, Sarasota Private Investigator Bill Warner Exposes Muslim Cleric Muneer Arafat Links to Terrorism. Sarasota Mosque Imam Muneer Arafat came to Sarasota in March of 2000 his prior roommate in St Louis was al-Qaeda procurement agent Ziyad Sadaqua aka Ziyad Khaleel who purchased a satellite phone in the USA and had it shipped to Africa so that it could be used by Osama bin-Laden in the 1998 US Embassy Bombings in Africa. In June of 2000 Mohamed Atta and his 9/11 hijack pals followed Muneer Arafat to Sarasota FL, while Ziyad Sadaqua went to Orlando Fl small world, eh.

Much has been made about a secret 2002 FBI investigation into the Sarasota Saudi Connection. The FBI never questioned members of the Saudi Royal Family before allowing them to flee the United States in the days immediately following the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Aboard the plane were two princes -- one of whom allegedly had been in contact with al-Qaeda before the the attacks and another whose father's longtime adviser owned a house in Florida that was allegedly visited several times by some of the hijackers. What's more, the FBI's detailed report to Congress and President George W. Bush on the Saudi exodus was so flawed, it didn't even correctly identify one of the princes, according to new reporting by MSNBC. On the day of the terrorist attacks on New York and Washington, there were two members of the Saudi Royal family on American soil. One, Prince Ahmed bin Salman, a media baron with vast wealth and a passion for racing expensive horses, was in Lexington Kentucky for the annual sale of thoroughbred yearlings. 

The second, Prince Sultan bin Fahd, was a 22-year-old royal living in Sarasota, Florida, and studying at the University of Tampa’s American Language Academy. Saudi Prince Prince Salman bin Fahad bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz Al Saud used the name Fahad in Sarasota Fl. Both men, MSNBC reports, were later found to have troubling connections to the men who hijacked four planes on September 11, 2001. Al-Qaida had allegedly been in contact with Prince Ahmed before the attacks, according to statements made by one of Osama bin Ladin's top aides, Abu Zubaydah, MSNBC reported. More strange is the fact that Prince Ahmed died in July 2002 at age 43 of heart failure. The circumstances of his death remain unclear to this day. Prince Sultan, meanwhile, had links to Esam Ghazzawi -- a top adviser to his father Prince Fahd. Of special interest is the Ghazzawis’ boss, the chairman of Eirad Holding Co. Ltd.Saudi Prince Prince Salman bin Fahad bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz Al Saud used the name Fahad in Sarasota Fl is a prominent member of the ruling Saudi royal family he was living in Sarasota from 2000 to 2001. He is a great-grandson of King Abdulaziz (commonly referred to as Ibn Saud), founder of modern Saudi Arabia, and grandson of the current king. Ghazzawi owned a home in Sarasota that was visited several times by Mohamad Atta, the leader of the September 11 hijackers, and his group. On the day of the attacks, Prince Sultan bin Fahd was in Sarasota. He received a call from his uncle who told him to make it to Lexington as soon as they could so they could leave the country amid mounting anti-Saudi sentiment. A former Florida police officer and a former FBI agent were hired to provide protection for the young royal and his colleagues. In the hours after the September 11 attacks, the Federal Aviation Administration grounded all flights until 11am September 13. Though it has been reported that the Saudis flew during this air prohibition, according to MSNBC, Prince Sultan and his friends actually didn't leave on a chartered jet until five hours after the flight ban was lifted. The FBI report to Congress and President George W. Bush lists another method of travel entirely. The FBI claimed that the prince hired a car and drove the 900 miles north to Kentucky. But the two men who worked for the prince's security detail said the FBI got this all wrong, MSNBC says. Another key detail the FBI got wrong was Prince Sultan's identity. The FBI said the young prince was the son of Prince Ahmed. However, Prince Sultant is actually the older royal's nephew. Three days after prince touched down in Lexington, Kentucky, he and Prince Ahmed, along with 12 other Saudis boarded a Boeing 727 and flew back to Saudi Arabia. None of the men was ever questioned by the FBI before they were allowed to leave the country, according to MSNBC.

Saudi Prince Prince Salman bin Fahad bin Sultan bin Abdulaziz Al Saud used the name Fahad in Sarasota Fl. RE Esam Ghazzawi’s son, Adel Ghazzawi, 46: Individuals tied to Huffman Flight School and 9/11 Hijackers by FBI linked to 4224 Escondito Circle Sarasota as family members appear to be Abdulaziz al-Hijji and Adel Ghazzawi son of Esam Ghazzawi. In the year 2000, Sarasota Saudi’s Abdulaziz al-Hijji then age 27 and his brother in law Adel Ghazzawi then age 30, were contemporaries of 9/11 Hijack Pilots Ziad Jarrah then age 25, Marwan Al-Shehhi then age 22, and Monamed Atta then age 32 who all appear to have taken Flight Training in Venice Fl at Hoffman Aviation at the same time, small world, eh? It appears the Adel Ghazzawi had been staying at 4224 Escondito Circle Sarasota, he also was linked to a address in nearby Longboat Key Fl. 

April 3rd 2002 FBI report indicates that at least two people linked to the al-Hijji house in Prestancia Sarasota Fl were taking flight lessons at Huffman Aviation with the 9/11 hijackers in the year 2000. When “big poppy” Esam Ghazzawi left the U.S., Adel Ghazzawi apparently took over the family’s affairs here. It was Adel, then 30 and an American citizen, who tried to get a Prestancia lien lifted so the house could be sold. The lien came after the series of brushes with Prestancia’s community association in Sarasota Fl, they all just slipped away right under the noses of the FBI. Quote: “A U.S. agency involved in tracking terrorist funds was interested in both men even before 9/11” the US Agency is ICE, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) which enforces federal laws governing international money laundering. 

ICE along with the Sarasota Police Intel unit and the Sarasota County Sheriff Department were the nexus of a 2002 investigation in Sarasota Fl that was taken over by Sarasota FBI agent Thomas Baugher when it eventually linked to support of terrorism. Same time frame as the so-called 2002 FBI Secret Sarasota Investigation of Abdulazziz al-Hijji’s clan in Prestancia Sarasota Fl. A’int no coincidences in terrorism as FBI agent Thomas Baugher told me on several occasions in 2002 and 2003.

Cocaine Exploded Like Atomic Bomb in Binghamton via NYC Drug Dealers in 1988, New edition in 2026 is Sayquan "Gucci" McKenzie member of Hoodstarz street gang Brownsville Brooklyn NY. May 1st, 2026.. Recent law enforcement actions in Binghamton, New York, indicate that drug trafficking is a significant issue, often involving organized gangs and networks distributing heroin, fentanyl, methamphetamine, and cocaine. These networks frequently supply narcotics from larger cities like New York City or Syracuse to the Southern Tier. "Cocaine Exploded Like an Atomic Bomb in Binghamton via NYC Drug Dealer Archie Joyner and his gang in 1988" then came MacBallers then Taykwann Browne then Kimoy McDonald and now Sayquan "Gucci" McKenzie. NYC Drug Dealer Archie Joyner got the cocaine ball rolling in Binghamton NY back in the summer of 1988 then MacBallas took over in 2014 then Taykwann Browne in 2022 and Kimoy 'O' McDonald in 2025 and in 2026 you have Sayquan "Gucci" McKenzie member of Hoodstarz street gang Brownsville Brooklyn NY who have transported drugs, guns and violence to Binghamton NY. The worst of the worst violent gangs out of NYC have infected Binghamton NY!

UPDATED' Sayquan "Gucci" McKenzie arrested in Binghamton NY on May 1st, 2026 driving a stolen Porshe, "Gucci" McKenzie is a member of the Hoodstarz street gang in Brownsville, Brooklyn NY. Sayquan McKenzie was found to have an active arrest warrant out of NYPD for Assault on a Police Officer. Video footage from a Fort Lee robbery verified McKenzie as the same person who had committed the robbery. Criminal activities in Brownsville, Brooklyn, by individuals associated with the Hoodstarz street gang and warring crews of Folk Nation and the 823 Crips include drug trafficking, robbery and murder. "Gucci" Mckenzie was among 35 alleged Hoodstarz gang members and associates charged in December 2016 following a year-long investigation in Brooklyn NY. The crimes of the Hoodstarz gang date back to 2010 and continued as late as this month. The indictments follow a widespread investigation by several agencies. The charges include murder, assault, robbery and conspiracy. "The Hoodstarz are a violent notorious gang that has terrorized parts of Brooklyn for years," said NYPD Assistant Chief James Essig. The Hoodstarz Gang—whose members identify with the term "Choo"—have historically been embroiled in a bitter and violent turf war against the Wave Gang (who identify as "Woo"). These conflicts centered around various Brownsville housing projects (such as Marcus Garvey Village and the Seth Low Houses), leading to numerous shootings and casualties over the years.

The information that I obtained and have published about the Binghamton NY east side drug gang, that was led by Kimoy McDonald from 2019 to June 2022, was from my PACER account of Federal criminal cases, specifically drug trafficking. The information that I gathered and published from over 600 pages in the PACER system on Federal drug trafficking case 3:22-CR-00358 is a matter of public record and may be reproduced without permission. The east side Binghamton NY drug gang was further investigated by Special Agent Ryan P. Swift from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), Syracuse NY Resident Field Office. 

The initial arrest of Kimoy McDonald on June 22nd, 2022 in the parking lot of his apartment complex on Reynolds Rd Johnson City NY never made the local media nor did his subsequent arraignment before local Magistrate Judge Miroslav Lovric at the Federal Building and US Courthouse 15 Henry Street, Binghamton, NY the very next day on June 23, 2022, all very secret. https://www.pacermonitor.com/public/case/46318808/USA_v_SEALED.

Multiple cocaine-related drug networks and gangs have operated in or trafficked drugs through 348-350 Clinton St Binghamton, New York since 1988. The drug gangs included the MacBallers gang and the Archie Joyner Gang, which were centered in Binghamton on Clinton St with direct connection to New York City via Route 17 and 81. Law enforcement agencies consisting of the NY State Police, the DEA, the FBI, the Binghamton Police Dept and the Broome County Special Investigations Unit Task Force have intercepted large-scale cocaine shipments in the region. Now Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Syracuse NY resident field office Special Agent Ryan P. Swift has joined the fight.

The east side Binghamton NY drug gang run by Kimoy McDonald from 2019 to June 2022 was further investigated by Special Agent Ryan P. Swift from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), Syracuse NY Resident Field Office. Special Agent Ryan P. Swift has been involved in federal investigations related to transnational crime (drugs). On Dec 10, 2025, Co-led by HSI and the FBI, the HSTF New York will serve as a first-of-its-kind task force that utilizes a whole-of-government approach to identify, disrupt and dismantle criminal cartels, foreign gangs, and transnational criminal organizations (“TCOs”) in New York and throughout the United States. Violent drug dealer Kimoy McDonald aka 'Kenny Roq' out of the Bronx NY was finally convicted in Federal Court on Dec 18, 2025, he got a 12 year prison sentence (144 months). 

From 1988 to 1995, Archie Lee Joyner Jr operated a cocaine drug trafficking ring in Binghamton, NY. Forty-one individuals, including Teddy T. Atkinson, Jesse M. Carter, Carlos Charles, Raymond A. Collins, William Willoghby, Michael Barrett, and Craig Sweat, were indicted for offenses arising out of the ring. Atkinson, Carter, Charles, Collins, Barrett, and Sweat pleaded not guilty. After an eight week jury trial before Chief Judge McAvoy, in which Archie Lee Joyner Jr was the government's key witness (rat), the jury convicted all of his pals. Archie Lee Joyner Jr (rat) was only 22 years old when he organized his emerging drug empire in Binghamton NY during the summer of 1988, he would be about 60 years old in 2026. Archie Lee Joyner Jr (rat), DOB 1/06/1966, age 60, 'living in parts unknown' with a bullseye on his back.

Current drug dealer, 2019 to 2022, violent drug dealer Kimoy McDonald is out of the Bronx NY, most likely he is an associate of the Mac Baller Brims gang a set of the Bloods gang operating primarily in the Bronx and other parts of New York City and in Binghamton NY. BINGHAMTON, NY March 26, 2014—United States Attorney Richard S. Hartunian announced that 14 members and associates of the Bloods street gang known as the “MacBallers” were charged today by way of a felony criminal complaint in federal court in Binghamton, New York, with engaging in a drug trafficking conspiracy. SAQUAN JOHNSON, a/k/a “Banga,” a/k/a “Sa,” 23 years old, is a member of the MacBallers gang and is known as an enforcer/shooter who was responsible for the distribution of large amounts of crack cocaine, powder cocaine, heroin, and marijuana to other members of the MacBallers’ drug trafficking conspiracy. The investigation leading to arrests and charges was conducted by members of a task force comprised of the U.S. Attorney’s Office, Binghamton, New York; FBI Albany Field Office and FBI New York Field Office; Broome County District Attorney’s Office; Binghamton Police Department; New York State Police; Broome County Sheriff’s Office; Johnson City Police Department; Endicott Police Department; and the U.S. Marshals Service.

The beginning of the end began when Juanita Crabb was mayor of Binghamton NY from 1982 to 1993, she was a Democrat who pulled potential voters from New York City to Binghamton NY with various programs and good intentions, but. Then troubles like violent crime and drugs (cocaine) showed up in a town that hadn't experienced them before (1988). Mayor Crabb began to see the flip side of her position. 'Rock Houses' started to pop up where drug users could go get high, like the one on Hawley Street Binghamton NY operated by Mosella Mayo, about one block from Columbus School on the same street. Future Democratic Mayors of Binghamton NY and Democratic Broome County Executives continued to draw from the slums of NYC, (what became their constitutes and voting base), the worst of the worst, drug dealers, thugs, and ex-cons to upstate NY. "As you sow, so shall you reap".

"Beginning of the End in 1987". Rozann Greco caught May 1st 1987 with 45 grams of cocaine in Kirkwood NY, she was convicted and sentenced to a prison term of 10 to 20 years. Greco's supplier was George W. Moon who was also convicted of cocaine sales and sent to prison in 1987. George W. Moon had served prior prison terms for Armed Robbery and Sexual Assault in NYC. Later in 1990 Big Bob the carpet salesman and former TC Jets hopeful was caught with a load of cocaine in the trunk of his car by NY State Troopers out of Kirkwood NY. Big Bob was convicted of 'Trafficking In Cocaine' but only did 5 years in prison, he could have got Life, but didn't, most likely cops flipped him, I knew Big Bob.

Then things got real bad in Binghamton NY with Rampant Drug Sales, Witness Intimidation, Arson and Murder. Archie L. Joyner was only 22 years old when he organized his emerging drug empire in Binghamton NY during the summer of 1988. May 1994 Arson fire at Dell's Palaz bar, man murdered. Archie Joyner henchman Raymond A. Collins aka Ray aka Ron Turner of Queens NY got life in prison without parole in Jan 1997 for the arson/murder at Dell's Palaz 158 Court St  Binghamton NY. Archie Joyner turned State's witness and avoided Life in prison, he turned rat to save his ass, just like what Cocaine Big Bob did. FEDERAL BUREAU OF PRISONS: ARCHIE L. JOYNER Register Number: 06580-052, age 59 as of July 21 2025, Released On: 09/18/2009.

(screenshot credit article & photos The Binghamton Press, Binghamton NY) "This article researched and published by private investigator Bill Warner who had interaction with Joyner gang members in Binghamton NY back in 1987 to 1988". The Archie Joyner drug gang was mostly made up of black gangsters out of Queens NY. But, Archie Joyner used white drug mules with no criminal records, like 'Cocaine Big Bob', to haul cocaine to Binghamton NY in their cars from New York City. 'Cocaine Big Bob' is one of the first drug mules, or jackass, who hauled cocaine from New York City to Binghamton in the summer of 1988 for drug lord Archie Joyner. Archie L. Joyner, DOB 1/06/1966, was on felony probation in NYC when he set up his drug network in Binghamton NY in 1988, he was only 22 years old. How did convicted felon and drug dealer Archie Joyner obtain liquor licenses for the all the bars he owned in Binghamton NY? Who is this dirtbag Robert Urzxxxxxx aka 'Cocaine Big Bob' the carpet salesman in Binghamton's 1st Ward and former TC Jets football 4th string offensive guard reject? 'Cocaine Big Bob' was hauling cocaine for Archie Joyner gang from NYC to Binghamton NY from 1988 to 1990 on his days off from his cover job as a carpet salesman. Robert Urzxxxxxxx aka 'Cocaine Big Bob' played football for a Binghamton high school in the late 1970's, (the High School closed permanently in 1982), and had been living in a apartment on the East Side of Binghamton in 1988 near North High School. Ex-con 'Cocaine Big Bob' is most likely still living on the East Side of Binghamton NY.

Archie Joyner gang had a drug and gun stash house at 49 Downs Ave Binghamton, walking distance to Robert Uzrzxxxxxxxx aka 'Cocaine Big Bob's' cover job at the carpet store and right around the corner from the drug clubhouse at AMP's at 348 Clinton St Binghamton NY. Cocaine Big Bob the carpet salesman and former TC Jets football prospect lived on the East side of Binghamton NY. Since 1988, AMP's at 348 Clinton St Binghamton NY, has been the drug clubhouse for the Archie Joyner Gang, then in 2010 the MacBallas Bloods Street Gang (Mac Baller Brims), used the same address and called it Club 17 East and in 2014 you had the Eddie Block Gang all imports from the slums of NYC! 

Cocaine exploded like an Atomic Bomb in 1988 Binghamton NY with TC Jet 'Big Bob' the Carpet Salesman in the 1st Ward hauling Coke from NYC for the Archie Joyner Gang. Joyner began his upstate drug trafficking operation in 1988 in Binghamton NY. TC Jets football player Robert Uzrzxxxxxxx aka 'Cocaine Big Bob' picked up cocaine in New York City and transported it to Binghamton for the Archie Joyner gang in the trunk of his car. Drug boss Archie Joyner had cocaine shipped in cars by "mules" to Binghamton and distributed it to “sellers” at a number of Binghamton bars he owned and received a portion of the sellers' profits.

ROUTE 17 COCAINE HIGHWAY: “Dangerous drugs like cocaine have devastated too many communities like Binghamton throughout NY State and claimed too many lives.” The Binghamton cocaine drug investigation dubbed "Operation Golden Road," a phrase borrowed from Archie Joyner, a major drug trafficker who lived in Queens but made the 3 1/2-hour trek up Route 17 to Binghamton NY to do business. "In 1988 Archie Joyner described how he, and other thugs in his line of work like Jesse M. Carter aka Uncle Jess, would joke around about how the streets of Binghamton were 'paved with gold' and if you transported your coke up there, you'd become rich," said Miroslav Lovric, an assistant U.S. attorney in the Northern District of New York. The Archie Joyner gang in 1988 evolved into the 'Mac Ballers Blood' set gang at AMP's in 2006 and then into the 'Eddie Block' gang in 2012, to the current situation with rampant cocaine and gun problems in Binghamton. All of these thugs are right out of New York City and 'East Side Big Bob' the carpet salesman was in on it all in 88'. THE HAMMER TO FALL: In the fall of 1995 and January of 1996, the government indicted and charged Archie Joyner and forty (40) members of his criminal organization (the "Joyner organization") with various narcotics crimes, gun possession counts, distribution counts, arson-murder counts and Continuing Criminal Enterprise ("CCE").

Black and white caricature sketch seen above of big fat drug dealer Robert Uzrzxxxxxxx aka 'Cocaine Big Bob', he is 6' 1" tall and 280 lbs with black hair and full beard, wears glasses. In 1988 Archie Joyner and his gang from NYC set up shop in Binghamton NY selling cocaine through an assortment of run down dive bars like AMP's on Clinton St and Big Bob was one of the mules bringing the coke up from NYC. 

Robert Uzrzxxxxxx aka 'Cocaine Big Bob' only did 5 years in New York State prison on a Trafficking in Cocaine conviction in 1990, WTF? In New York state from 1988 to 1995 a conviction for Trafficking in Cocaine could get you Life in Prison. "Criminal possession of a controlled substance in the first degree. If you have at least 8 ounces of cocaine or a cocaine mixture you will face this charge. It is a class A-I felony that carries a penalty of up to life in prison and a fine of up to $100,000. N.Y. Pen. Law § 220.21". NEW YORK COCAINE LAWS IN 1990: In 1973, New York passed the toughest laws of its kind in all the United States. Known as the Rockefeller Drug Laws, the penalty for selling two ounces (57 g) or more of heroin, morphine, opium, cocaine, or cannabis (or possessing four ounces (113 g) or more of the same substances), was a minimum of 15 years to life in prison, and a maximum of 25 years to life in prison. After more than three decades, these laws were revised in 2009 to remove the mandatory minimum sentences. 

Robert Uzrzxxxxxxxx aka 'Cocaine Big Bob' the TC Jet reject and carpet salesman only got only 5 years in NY state prison when he was convicted in 1990's of Trafficking in Cocaine with major weight. Cocaine Big Bob should have got a bare minimum of 15 Years to Life, how about that. I guess it paid for Big Bob to rat out his drug bosses like Teddy T. Atkinson who got 24 years in Federal prison and Jesse M. Carter aka Uncle Jess who got 30 years; Carlos Charles got 33 years; Raymond A. Collins aka Ray, aka Ron Turner got LIFE IN PRISON; Michael Barrett aka Mike Mike got 22 years; Craig L. Sweat aka Tank got 22 years; they all did major time except for Robert Uzrzxxxxxxxx aka 'Cocaine Big Bob' the carpet salesman and RAT.

(screenshot credit article & photos The Binghamton Press, Binghamton NY) Another of the early Binghamton cocaine drug dealers in 1988 was James A. Kendrick, 36, of Powers Rd Conklin NY. James (Jim) Kendrick had been dealing in cocaine prior to his December 14, 1988 arrest said Carol A. Cocchiola a senior Assistant District Attorney. The cocaine James A. Kendrick was selling came from New York City, looks like he was one of the early Archie Joyner gang affiliates. James Kendrick was sentenced to 2 to 6 years in state prison, despite his appeal. In 2000 James A. Kendrick, 46, was arrested again on drug charges, possession of cocaine and heroin with intent to sell. Gee, I wonder if 'Cocaine Big Bob' knew James A. Kendrick, they both played football.

Archie Joyner Gang was a real life 'American Gangster' in Binghamton NY. This 'real life story' of the Archie Joyner Gang and how they brought Big City crime and drugs from NYC to Binghamton NY in the 1980's is reminiscent of the movie 'America Gangster'. 'American Gangster' was based on a New York magazine story about the rise and fall of drug lord Frank Lucas in Harlem and other areas in the 1970's. The continuing and current drug problem in Binghamton NY is based on the networks and connections that the Archie Joyner Gang set up in the 1980's. Arrest reports on drug charges in Binghamton NY often indicate that the perps arrested have a NYC address. (screenshot credit article & photos The Binghamton Press, Binghamton NY) ROUTE 17 COCAINE HIGHWAY: The first two members of the Archie Joyner gang to be arrested and convicted of cocaine sales in Binghamton were Kendall K. Brown of New York City and Ronald C. Wilkerson of Clay NY. Both men were arrested selling cocaine in Binghamton during 1988, they were convicted and sentenced to prison on January 28, 1989 as per a Binghamton Press article as seen above. Brown got 10 to 20 years in prison and Wilkerson got 12 to 25 years in prison, he had 21 prior arrests. This is the scum that Archie Joyner brought to Binghamton from NYC starting in 1988. The 1988 time period is when I was first aware of TC Jet 'Cocaine Big Bob' the carpet salesman who lived on the East side hauling coke from NYC to Binghamton for the Archie Joyner Gang.

(screenshot credit article & photos The Binghamton Press, Binghamton NY) The first signs of an organized criminal conspiracy to sell cocaine in Binghamton NY shows up in court during December 1991. Six members of Archie Joyner gang indicted by Broome County Grand Jury on sale of cocaine charges. Lanita Jones of the Bronx NY was found with 93 vials of cocaine on Sept 23rd 1991 when she was searched by police inside Dell's Palaz 158 Court St Binghamton NY. Cocaine gang boss Archie Joyner owned Dell's Palaz in 1991, it was taken over by the rival Brooklyn Macballa's drug gang in 1993 so Archie had his boys burn the joint down in May 1994, unfortunately a tenet in the upstairs apartment was burned to death.
(screenshot credit article & photos The Binghamton Press, Binghamton NY) In 1990, Joyner's longtime friend Jesse Carter followed him to Binghamton. Within less than three weeks, Carter was arrested at a bar called “Dell's Palaz” 158 Court St Binghamton NY for possession with intent to distribute cocaine. Cocaine arrests uptick in 1990 at local bars, see Press story above. In 1992, Archie Joyner decided that managing a bar called “Amp's” on Clinton St would help him avoid police surveillance while selling cocaine. His organization also began to buy guns, which were kept in stash houses like on Downs Ave in the 1st Ward. In the spring of 1993, Jesse M. Carter aka Uncle Jess returned to Binghamton to become one of the managers of Amp's on Clinton St Binghamton NY.
(screenshot credit article & photos The Binghamton Press, Binghamton NY) Binghamton's Cocaine War - Arson & Murder 1994: Dell's Palaz bar 158 Court St Binghamton NY Arson/Murder fire on May 16th, 1994 orchestrated by Archie Joyner, he paid 4 thugs from NYC $500 each to torch Dell's bar. In Feb 1994 there were 3 rival gangs selling cocaine in Binghamton NY. Dell's Palaz was taken over by a competing drug gang out of Brooklyn that cut into Archie Joyner (out of Queens NY) profits in 1993. Michael Barrett and his lieutenant Craig L. Sweat were called the Manhattan gang and sold drugs at 'Choices'. Michael Barrett visited Joyner frequently, and they agreed that the former organization would sell cocaine at Choice's at night (still splitting the profits with Joyner) and that Joyner's girlfriend, Tracey Smith, would sell on his behalf during the day. Willard Allen an elderly man who was sleeping in an upstairs apartment died during the May 1994 Arson fire at Dell's. Joyner henchman Raymond A. Collins of Queens NY got life in prison without parole in Jan 1997 for the arson/murder at Dell's Palaz. Archie Joyner turned State's witness and avoided Life in prison, he turned rat to save his ass. Looks like Cocaine Boss Archie Joyner did only 8 years State prison time and 5 years Federal prison time, sweat deal for the Boss when he could have got LIFE without parole.
(screenshot credit article & photos The Binghamton Press, Binghamton NY) JOYNER GANG MEMBERS: Michael Barrett aka Mike Mike got 22 years; Craig L. Sweat aka Tank got 22 years. Archie L. Joyner Jr the Boss took a plea deal for drug conspiracy, arson, murder and other charges and testified against the other defendants, SNITCH/RAT. A lot of the Archie Joyner gang Queens NY and the Michael Barrett gang Manhattan NY were convicted of a Continuing Criminal Enterprise (CCE), like Teddy T. Atkinson of 2734 Watson Blvd Endwell NY and Jesse Carter of Plainview NJ.
(screenshot credit article & photos The Binghamton Press, Binghamton NY) The Archie Joyner drug crew out of NYC set up shop in the Binghamton area in 1988. Robert Uzrzxxxxxxxx aka 'Cocaine Big Bob', the former TC Jet football player and carpet salesman in Binghamton's 1st Ward went right to work for Archie's gang running trunk loads of cocaine from NYC to his East side apartment and onto stash houses on Downs Ave (just off Glenwood Ave) in Binghamton's First Ward and on Watson Blvd in Endwell NY. This scumbag Robert Uzrzxxxxxxxx aka 'Cocaine Big Bob' help supply Archie's ever expanding drug business run out of multiple dive bars in Binghamton, like AMP's on Clinton St. Archie Joyner was the precursor to all the drug and gun violence that followed him over the years in Binghamton NY right up till today. The Archie Joyner gang was arrested and sent to prison, but they opened the door to the "Mac Ballas" subset of the Bloods street gang (Mac Baller Brims), that also operated out of AMP's on Clinton St, they were dismantled in 2014, so you would think.
(screenshot credit article & photos The Binghamton Press, Binghamton NY) The Eddie Block Gang picked up the drug trade soon after in 2015. Cops said what set the Eddie Block drug gang that followed Archie Joyner in 1988 and the MacBallas apart from other drug trafficking operations was that many of them were friends who grew up around the West Side neighborhood and descendants of Archie Joyner's gang. Other major drug busts have followed in Broome County during the past two years; they have been prosecuted at the state and federal levels.
photo credit screen shot Binghamton press-bulletin. "During the 1980's Cocaine exploded upon the American culture like an atomic bomb". It started in Hollywood and moved East in no time to New York City and Binghamton NY. Everyone was doing it. Even the salesman and warehouse workers at the carpet store in Binghamton's 1st Ward, no one would have got past a drug test. Archie Joyner invented the cocaine marketplace in Binghamton NY using mules like Robert Uzrzxxxxxxxx aka 'Cocaine Big Bob' to haul cocaine from New York City on I-81 or old Route 17. In fact, if you snorted cocaine in the late 1980's in Binghamton NY there was a 95% per cent chance it came from the Archie Joyner gang.

Robert Uzrzxxxxxxxx aka 'Cocaine Big Bob' was arrested by the New York State Police in 1990 on I-81 just outside of Binghamton NY with a load of cocaine in the trunk of his car from NYC, they knew he was coming, someone tipped them off. I will continue to find out the names of all of those linked to this cocaine reign of terror in Binghamton NY and publish their names with mugshot or Facebook photos as available.
BINGHAMTON NY: I became aware that during the time frame of late 1987 through 1988 a former Binghamton TC Jets football player an offensive guard, "Cocaine Big Bob" who had been working as a carpet salesman in Binghamton NY. "Cocaine Big Bob" was also working as a drug mule hauling cocaine out of NYC for gangster Archie Joyner on his days off, he got caught! "Cocaine Big Bob" looked just like 'Tuna' in the Johnny Depp movie 'Blow', "Cocaine Big Bob" was the real life version of 'Tuna' in the movie 'Blow', a big fat slob drug dealer. 

"Cocaine Big Bob" was arrested and convicted of Trafficking in Cocaine in 1990 in Binghamton NY, he only got 5 years in the New York State state prison system. The TC Jets semi-pro football team which 'Cocaine Big Bob' was a part of appears to have folded after the 1988 season, no stadium. "Cocaine Big Bob" was transporting cocaine from New York City to his east side apartment in Binghamton NY every week on his day off from the carpet store in Binghamton NY, he was working for the Archie Joyner drug gang. 'Cocaine Big Bob's' real name was Robert Uzrzxxxxxxx, an unpronounceable Russian or Ukrainian last name.

"Cocaine Big Bob" the former TC Jets football player and carpet salesman (cover job) at the carpet store in Binghamton's 1st Ward only got 5 years in 1990 in the the New York State prison system for Trafficking in Cocaine. 'Cocaine Big Bob' the carpet salesman, was just like 'Tuna' in the Johnny Depp's Movie 'Blow', a big fat slob of a drug dealer. Binghamton streets 'were paved with gold' said Binghamton drug load Archie Joyner where an ounce of cocaine that sold for up to $1,500 in Binghamton would only bring $530 on a New York City street during this time frame in 1988.
DEATH THREATS: I became aware that during the time frame of late 1987 through 1988, 'Cocaine Big Bob' the carpet salesman in Binghamton had associates (carpet cutters) who worked in the back room of the carpet store who had made death threats to some of the store employees, including their children. Apparently, if it was found out you snitched to higher ups at the carpet store or the Binghamton cops about the cocaine business you or your children could end up dead. 

At the carpet store the drug dealers claimed they would 'accidentally drop' a 2,000 lb roll of carpet on you as they moved things around in the store with the forklift or out in the parking lot where you parked your car. They also told some of the other carpet store employees that they knew where their house was and they knew where their children went to high school and threatened to kill them if you talked! Some employees at the carpet store left Binghamton, and New York State, in summer of 1988 to safeguard the lives of their children.
I became aware that during the time frame of late 1987 through 1989 that these thugs, at the carpet store in Binghamton NY, and 'Big Bob', were working directly for the Archie Joyner Gang. Glad the cops arrested all of these scumbag druggies and sent them to prison.

Payback is a bitch 'Cocaine Big Bob', who only got 5 years (SHOULD HAVE BEEN AT LEAST 15 YEARS TO LIFE) in NY state prison for Trafficking in Cocaine in 1990. I will continue to find out the names of all of those linked to this reign of terror in Binghamton NY and publish their names with mugshot or Facebook photos as available. Looks like 'Cocaine Big Bob' the carpet salesman was a snitch!

(screenshot credit article & photos The Binghamton Press, Binghamton NY) Archie L. Joyner moved to Binghamton NY in 1988 and set up his drug operation. In June of 1988 I became aware of Robert Uzrzxxxxxxxx aka 'Cocaine Big Bob' the carpet salesman who was also running cocaine from NYC to Binghamton on his days off from the store for Archie Joyner. One of Archie Joyner's drug stash houses was at 49 Downs Ave in Binghamton's 1st Ward just a one minute drive from where 'Cocaine Big Bob' the carpet salesman worked in Binghamton NY, I know this for a fact, small world, eh?
(photo credit screenshot Binghamton press and sun bulletin). BINGHAMTON PRESS JUNE 1995: U.S. Attorney Gary Sharpe points out that the Archie Joyner drug gang set up shop in Binghamton in 1988 and had stash houses all over the city of Binghamton, The Meadows Apartments 447 Plaza De Vestal and Endicott. Some of the drug houses in Binghamton were located at 49 Downs Ave in the 1st Ward and AMP's 348 Clinton St, 193 Matthews St and the Webster Court apartments 193 Hawley St. and on Watson Blvd Endwell NY. I will continue to find out the names of all of those linked to this reign of terror in Binghamton and publish their names with mugshot or Facebook photos as available.
Robert Uzrzxxxxxxxx aka 'Big Bob' the carpet salesman on Glenwood Ave in Binghamton was one of the first drug mules to be arrested, it appears his take down took place in early 1990 for trafficking in cocaine from NYC. "Sentences for drug offenders in New York State are among the most punitive in the country". 

In 1990 a trafficking in cocaine conviction (quantity) was a minimum of 15 years to life in prison, and a maximum of 25 years to life in prison, Cocaine Big Bob the carpet salesman only got 5 years, why? Did 'Cocaine Big Bob' make a deal with the DA to get a reduced sentence and set up the Archie Joyner gang? Was Robert Uzrzxxxxxxxx aka 'Cocaine Big Bob' the carpet salesman a snitch? Hell yeah.
Drug boss Archie Lee Joyner Jr, DOB 1/06/1966, current age 59 in 2025, former residence Binghamton NY, appears to live in Queens NY or Denver NC now. Drug boss Archie Lee Joyner Jr listed addresses in Binghamton during his stay here in the 80's on Winding Way and Main St. Convict Archie L. Joyner Jr, DOB 1/06/1966, was received at the NYS Department of Corrections at Coxsackie Correctional Facility on 3/18/1995 and paroled on 6/19/2003. Coxsackie Correctional Facility is a maximum security state prison in Coxsackie, Greene County, New York. It currently houses approximately 900 inmates. It is classified as a maximum security general confinement facility and detention center for men. Archie L. Joyner also did Federal prison time of about 5 years he was released on 9/18/2009. Looks like Boss Archie Joyner did only 8 years State prison time and 5 years Federal prison time, sweat deal for the Boss when he could have got LIFE, another snitch. 

Back on June 26, 1995 approximately forty people were indicted for various narcotics, weapons, and conspiracy charges arising out of their participation in what has been referred to as the 'Joyner Organization'. Archie L. Joyner Jr the Boss took a plea deal for drug conspiracy, arson and other charges and testified against the other defendants, SNITCH.
(screenshot credit article & photos The Binghamton Press, Binghamton NY) One of Joyner's lieutenants was Teddy T. Atkinson, 28, (now 54), was living at 2734 Watson Boulevard Endwell NY near another carpet store. Teddy T. Atkinson was convicted of drug conspiracy and 14 counts of cocaine distribution he got 24 years in prison. Teddy T. Atkinson was released from Federal Prison on 8/11/2017.

BACK On June 26, 1995, Michael Barrett (hereinafter“Petitioner”) and approximately forty other people were indicted for various narcotics, weapons, and conspiracy charges arising out of their participation in what has been referred to as the Archie Joyner Organization. “Organization” was initially formed in 1989 by Archie Joyner and sold narcotics at several bars and strip clubs in Binghamton, New York. 

Joyner, the ringleader and subsequently-turned-government witness, would pay people within the organization to mule cocaine from his contacts in New York City to the Binghamton area, and the cocaine would then be sold by other associates within the organization at various bars. During this time frame 1988 to 1990 a former Binghamton TC Jets football player "Cocaine Big Bob" offensive guard, had been working as a salesman at the carpet store in Binghamton. "Cocaine Big Bob" was arrested and convicted of trafficking in cocaine from NYC he should have got at least 20 years in prison but only got 5, maybe a snitch, maybe yes.

photo credit screenshot Binghamton press and sun bulletin. "Cocaine Big Bob" was transporting nose candy from New York City to his east side apartment in Binghamton NY every week on his day off from the carpet store for the Archie Joyner gang, I was aware of this in 1988. "Cocaine Big Bob" the former TC Jets football player and carpet salesman (cover job) got 5 years in the the New York State prison system. The organization initially began selling drugs at several local bars in Binghamton including the Sail Inn, Begies and Kennedy’s Corners 161 Court St Binghamton NY in 1988. As business grew, however, so did the territory the organization sought to cover, and soon they were selling drugs at other bars in Binghamton including Amp's, Sheions and Choices.

Archie Joyner began his drug trafficking operation in 1988, the same year he moved to Binghamton from Queens NY. He bought cocaine in New York City, transported it to Binghamton, distributed it to “sellers” at one of a number of Binghamton bars, and received a portion of the sellers' profits. In 1990, Joyner's longtime friend Carter followed him to Binghamton. Within less than three weeks, Carter was arrested at a bar called “Dell's” for possession with intent to distribute cocaine. 

Atkinson, another longtime Archie Joyner friend, subsequently moved to Binghamton and formed a partnership with Archie Joyner to sell cocaine at a bar called “Sail Inn.” That partnership dissolved after Joyner discovered that Atkinson had stolen money from him. Joyner then recruited others to work for him as he expanded his operation.

In 1992, Joyner decided that managing a bar called “Amp's” would help him avoid police surveillance while selling cocaine. His organization also began to buy guns, which were kept in stash houses. In the spring of 1993, Carter returned to Binghamton to become one of the managers of Amp's. That summer, Joyner purchased a Binghamton bar called “Begie's.” In the fall of 1993, Carter became a manager of that bar as well. 

At about the same time, Atkinson-who was dealing drugs on his own after the dissolution of his partnership with Joyner-was arrested for distributing cocaine. He was released after Joyner posted bail on his behalf. Following his release, Atkinson worked as a seller at Begie's in order to repay Joyner until the state court sentenced him to a prison term. At the end of 1993, Begie's lost its liquor license, was raided by police, and temporarily closed.

At about the same time, however, Archie Joyner purchased another bar called “Sheion's.” After Begie's was closed, Archie Joyner moved Carter to Sheion's, but he needed a second manager at Sheion's to handle all the customers. Because Atkinson was still in prison, Joyner recruited longtime-friend Charles for that position. Joyner paid Charles for his services as manager by allowing him to sell cocaine, marijuana, and heroin at Sheion's. Willoghby, a cocaine addict, was a janitor at Sheion's and sold cocaine there for Joyner from time to time. On February 10, 1994, Carter was arrested in New Jersey for possessing almost 3,000 vials of cocaine in a car he and Archie Joyner had borrowed. After Carter's release on bail several weeks later, he resumed managing Sheion's for Archie Joyner.

At about the same time, Archie Joyner reopened Begie's under the new name “Choice's” and allowed the leaders of a rival ring, Barrett and his lieutenant Sweat, to sell cocaine there in exchange for a percentage of their profits. At about the same time, Joyner began to purchase both cocaine and heroin from a new supplier, Reginald Perry. In May 1994, Joyner, Perry, and several others-including Collins, whom Perry had worked with in New York and whom he had recruited for this job-conspired to torch a Binghamton bar called “Dell's,” the principal competitor of Sheion's. An elderly man, Willard Allen, died in the fire.
 

In Binghamton NY during 1994, 28 people were charged in a six-year, $8.5 million cocaine ring, culminating in the firebombing of Dell's Palaz in downtown Binghamton, killing the occupant of an upstairs apartment. A $1.6 million-a-month cocaine pipeline was broken in 1996 with the arrest of 22 people in connection with the James Pope cocaine ring. Over the course of the investigation, the amount sold would have been worth about twice as much as the City of Binghamton's $50 million budget. 

Black and white caricature sketch seen above of drug dealer 'Cocaine Big Bob', he is 6' 1" tall and 280 lbs with black hair and full beard, wears glasses. Cocaine was sold at Kennedy's Corner Restaurant & Lounge was at 161 Court St Binghamton NY, Begie’s bar was at 92 Henry Street Binghamton NY, Sheion's Bar was at corner of Court and Carroll Streets Binghamton NY, AMP Bar & Grill was at 348 Clinton St Binghamton NY around the corner from where Big Bob worked selling carpet,  the Sail Inn was at 32 Exchange St Binghamton NY.

On June 17, 1994, the Binghamton and New York state police raided Sheion's and arrested Archie Joyner, and several others. Archie Joyner were subsequently sent to prison, where they have since remained. Joyner continued his drug operation from prison. Barrett visited Joyner frequently, and they agreed that the former organization would sell cocaine at Choice's at night (still splitting the profits with Joyner) and that Joyner's girlfriend, Tracey Smith, would sell on his behalf during the day. At one point, Smith and Barrett clashed. Archie Joyner sent his personal bodyguard, Craig Gillespie, to Choice's to bring peace. Within a few weeks, Barrett and his crew left. Subsequently, in the fall of 1994, Atkinson, who had recently been released from state prison, returned to Choice's and resumed drug-selling. Several months later, Gillespie began to cooperate with police, leading to arrests and convictions.

In November 1996 Drug King James A. Pope pleaded guilty to 3 drug felonies in Broome County Court NY effectively ending his drug business in Binghamton that funneled $1.6 Million in cocaine sales a month. Police said the ring's leader, James A. Pope, never dealt in quantities of less than a kilogram, worth up to $40,000, making him among the top cocaine sellers in New York State. A $1.6 million-a-month cocaine pipeline was broken in 1996 with the arrest of 22 people in connection with the James Pope cocaine ring. Jul 16, 1996 — James A. Pope, 33, of 314 Conklin Ave Binghamton NY and convicted drug dealer Michael A. Nimmons, 29, of 1240 Watson Blvd Endwell NY, were charged with second-degree conspiracy in trafficking in cocaine drug sales. Over the course of the investigation, the amount sold would have been worth about twice as much as the City of Binghamton's $50 million budget. James A. Pope picked up where the Archie Joyner gang left off in Binghamton NY and took cocaine sales to a new high never seen in upstate New York State.

David said this operation should be counted as "a win for the good guys."

UPDATE August 3, 2016, Drug raid at 105 Glenwood Ave Binghamton NY. Seven people are facing felony charges after drug raids were executed at several locations across Broome County early Thursday morning. The three suspects charged with drug trafficking could spend life in prison. "We are not making deals with drug dealers. Those days are gone," said Broome County District Attorney Stephen Cornwell. 

According to Broome County Sheriff David Harder (R), this is the largest heroin bust in the county's history. The Broome County Sheriff's Office Special Investigations Unit, New York State Police, the U.S. Marshall's Task Force, alongside the Broome County District Attorney's Office, carried out the raid, dubbed "Operations Get Money." Below is a list of all seven suspects, and the charges they face:
Terrance Wise, 37: Operating as a major drug trafficker, a class A-1 felony.
David Mikulski, 35: Operating as a major drug trafficker, a class A-1 felony at 105 Glenwood Ave.
Jamie Krmenec, 25: Operating as a major drug trafficker, a class A-1 felony.
Anthony Guccia, 30: Criminal sale of a controlled substance in the third degree, a class B felony.

UPDATE NOV 27, 2019..BINGHAMTON (WBNG) —Police seize $18,000 worth of cocaine in Binghamton FROM MOM AND SON OPERATION. Members of the Broome County Special Investigations Unit Task Force seized thousands of dollars worth of cocaine from a residence on Chapin Street Tuesday. The task force says the execution of a narcotics search warrant at 189 Chapin St. led to the arrests of 41-year-old Kevin Turner, 35-year-old Thomas Galusha, and 57-year-old Catherine Galusha. All are from Binghamton, they say. In addition to the arrests, investigators say they found 6.3 ounces of cocaine, $625 in suspected drug sale proceeds and an amount of cocaine with an estimated street value of $18,000. AND SO IT CONTINUES IN BINGHAMTON NY.

UPDATE NOV 19, 2019 FBI says Binghamton drug dealer Shameek Halls sold heroin, fentanyl, crack cocaine for years. Shameek Halls came under law enforcement's radar in the winter of 2017, as police zeroed in on his alleged heroin, fentanyl and crack cocaine trafficking that altogether spanned about three years. Court records say Halls used other people to transport drugs from New York City into the Binghamton area, as well as make deliveries to customers (just like "COCAINE BIG BOB" the carpet salesman in 1988). In February 2017, the Broome County Special Investigations Unit Task Force raided Hall's residence on Susquehanna Street in Binghamton, where police found small amounts of heroin and marijuana. One week later, Halls pleaded guilty a misdemeanor drug charge and was sentenced to time served. 

But his drug trafficking activities didn't stop there, the FBI alleged in federal court records unsealed Thursday. Halls, a 29-year-old who is originally from Queens, New York, is accused of running a Binghamton-area drug-dealing operation from February 2017 through Nov. 14, 2019, when two search warrants were executed leading to the federal charges against him. The U.S. Attorney's Office charged Halls with felony counts of distribution and possession with intent to distribute controlled substances, along with possession of a firearm in furtherance of a drug trafficking crime. AND SO IT CONTINUES IN BINGHAMTON NY.

The Broome County Sheriff's Office Special Investigations Unit, New York State Police, the U.S. Marshall's Task Force, alongside the Broome County District Attorney's Office, carried out the raid, dubbed "Operations Get Money." Authorities carried out search warrants at the following locations:

An anonymous source has sent me information about a east side of Binghamton NY drug gang that was active in April 2022 and had links to a upper Bigelow St address. "Information from a Federal court case reveals that recently convicted, 12/18/2025, violent drug dealer Kimoy McDonald aka 'Kenny Roq' out of the Bronx NY had supplied co-conspirator Kathleen Trynoski with all sorts of drugs at her house at 147 Bigelow St Binghamton NY for at least four years from May 2019 through June 2022. See link to initial arrest and initial appearance set for June 23, 2022 at 4:00 PM for drug dealer Kimoy McDonald before Magistrate Judge Miroslav Lovric Federal Building and US Courthouse 15 Henry Street, Binghamton, NY https://www.pacermonitor.com/public/case/46318808/USA_v_SEALED. Arrest was not revealed to local media. Defendant Kimoy McDonald is/was remanded to the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service back in June 2022. Kimoy McDonald out of the Bronx NY appears to link to the violent Mac Balla Brims gang, a set of the national Bloods gang, in the Bronx NY. They are the new Mafia, a ruthless Bronx-based cabal of drug dealers and gunrunners that officials call the most dangerous gang in New York City. Its violence has claimed at least five innocent bystanders, three of them teenage girls, authorities say.

UPDATE BINGHAMTON (WBNG) -- On Wednesday, January 18th, 2023 at approximately 3:59 p.m. members of the Broome County Special Investigations Unit Task Force took down Taykwann Browne, age 26, of Brooklyn NY who was wanted for a homicide by the New York City Police Department, while he was operating a motor vehicle on Binghamton’s East side, maybe he was looking for Cocaine Big Bob? Browne fled this stop by driving in the direction of a police officer and across a front lawn of a residence and left the area at a high rate of speed. A short time after, Browne was involved in a motor vehicle accident in the area of Eldredge Street and Brandywine Avenue, the operator of the vehicle Browne collided with called 911 and advised which way Brown fled the accident on foot. A short time later Browne was taken into custody by members of the Broome County Special Investigations Unit Task Force on the railroad tracks nearby. Taykwann had in his possession during the arrest, one loaded 9mm Ruger brand handgun, approximately 12.9 grams of fentanyl pills. Drug paraphernalia items used in the sale and distribution of controlled substances. Taykwann Browne appears to be a member of the Mac ballas street gang in NYC (Mac Baller Brims). AND SO IT CONTINUES IN BINGHAMTON NY WITH DRUGS FROM NYC.

UPDATE Feb 28,2024: Drugs and Gun violence have directly lead to shuttered doors of small businesses in Binghamton NY. (WIVT/WBGH) – Two men were arrested following an executed search warrant at a Binghamton residence by Broome County Special Investigations Unit Task Force. On Tuesday, January 9, 2024, members of the Task Force went over to 435 Chenango Street in Binghamton to execute a search warrant which led to the discovery of several high-powered rifles and handguns, along with drugs including fentanyl and heroine. The operators of several Binghamton businesses want the city to do more to address criminal activity, including shootings, assaults and vandalism. Some downtown business owners have expressed growing frustration in recent weeks about incidents that have made employees and customers fearful for their safety. Read More: Downtown Binghamton Business Owners Concerned About Crime, Safety. WNBF radio wrote an article last year listing businesses that closed in 2022. There were quite a few. I wasn't going to do a 2023 list since I didn't think there were many businesses in the Southern Tier of New York that had closed, but as I started researching articles we've written over the past year about closings, well, the list was larger than I thought. 

Most are local businesses, some are national stores, and one was a nature center. I may have missed a few. Take a look below at businesses in the Southern Tier of New York that closed in 2023, listed in no particular order of date closing. Read More: Southern Tier Of New York Businesses We Lost in 2023 | The Archie Joyner gang and drug mules like Cocaine Big Bob in 1988 are directly responsible for all the drug and gun violence and thugs coming out of New York City in current Binghamton NY. Sure would like to locate Cocaine Big Bob now, he would be in his early 60's.

The Mac Baller Brims: NYC's most dangerous gang.New York Post; https://nypost.com › 2014/09/07 › the-mac-baller-brims... Sep 7, 2014 — They are the new Mafia, a ruthless Bronx-based cabal of drug dealers and gunrunners that officials call the most dangerous gang in the city. Members of the MacBallas street gang (MacBaller Brims), which operated primarily in the Bronx, New York, have been charged with racketeering, narcotics, robbery, murder and firearms offenses since at least 2014. In the Bronx, the MacBaller Brims are the largest subset of the national Bloods gang and have been considered one of the city's most violent, according to police. The Mac Ballers group had a branch in upstate Binghamton that supplied local dealers who sold the drugs on the campus of SUNY Binghamton. That branch was dismantled by authorities two weeks ago.

The gang formed in 2001. Then in Oct 2022, Damian Williams, the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York; Michael Alfonso, Acting Special Agent in Charge of the New York Field Office of Homeland Security Investigations (“HSI”); John B. DeVito, Special Agent in Charge of the New York Field Division of the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (“ATF”); and Keechant Sewell, Commissioner of the New York City Police Department (“NYPD”), announced the unsealing today of a nine-count superseding indictment charging four members of the “Mac Ballers” subset of the national Bloods gang in the Bronx, New York. 

GLEN CARWELL, a/k/a “Tink,” a/k/a “Tinky,” SHAWNDALE LEWIS, a/k/a “Nore,” COREY BATCHELOR, a/k/a “Corey Balla,” and JORDAN TOWNSEND were charged with racketeering conspiracy, violent crimes in aid of racketeering, and firearms offenses. CARWELL and LEWIS were also charged with narcotics conspiracy. The case is assigned to U.S. District Judge Lewis J. Liman. U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said: “We allege that for years, the Mac Baller set of the Bloods has terrorized the New York area, and especially the Bronx, by pouring addictive drugs into our community, committing robberies, and engaging in shootings. The gang has been identified as having a heavy presence and control over contraband within the Rikers Island jail system NYC. These charges reflect our commitment to keeping our community safe by targeting gang members who engage in violence, as we allege these defendants did.” 

From at least in or about late 2001 through and up to TODAY, the Mac Ballers was a criminal enterprise centered in the northeastern United States, including in the Bronx, New York, Binghamton NY, and in the jails and prisons of New York City and the State of New York. In order to make money for the gang, protect the gang’s territory, and promote the gang’s standing, members of the Mac Ballers engaged in, among other things, narcotics trafficking, fraud and identity theft, and acts of violence, including robberies and attempted murders. 

To that end, Mac Baller members sold heroin, cocaine, crack cocaine and marijuana, promoted their gang affiliation on social media, possessed firearms, and engaged in shootings as part of their gang membership and narcotics trafficking. As part of their membership in the gang, from 2017 to Oct 19, 2022, all four defendants participated in a conspiracy to commit murder in aid of racketeering, resulting in the attempted murder and assault with a dangerous weapon of a victim on October 19, 2021. FILED JUDGMENT IN A CRIMINAL CASE as to Corey Batchelor (5), Pleaded guilty to Count(s) 1, Imprisonment for a total term of Fifty-Two (52) Months. Supervised release for a term of Three Years; Count(s) 2, 3, 4 are dismissed on the motion of the US. The Court makes the following recommendations to the Bureau of Prisons: That the defendant be housed at FCI Fort Dix in NJ or another facility in the Northeast Region. The defendant shall surrender for service of sentence at the institution designated by the Bureau of Prisons as notified by the US Marshal.
