Attorney General Chris Carr today announced that the office’s Human Trafficking Prosecution Unit has indicted eight individuals for 54 gang and human trafficking charges. A Dougherty County Grand Jury returned the indictment on July 28, 2021.
“Gangs are behind the crime wave that is affecting Georgia communities, and members are willing to commit horrific acts to help fuel their illegal activities,” said Attorney General Chris Carr. “We will continue to vigorously prosecute gang members for their crimes, and we look forward to presenting this case – which contends there is a nexus between gangs and human trafficking – in court.”
“Conducting human trafficking and criminal street gang investigations are top priorities for the GBI,” said Georgia Bureau of Investigation Director Vic Reynolds. “We are committed to investigating crimes that affect the safety of our communities. No human should be subjected to sexual servitude or labor trafficking. We will continue to work with Attorney General Carr’s office as they prosecute these horrendous crimes.”
An investigation by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and the Office of the Attorney General’s Human Trafficking Prosecution Unit has revealed evidence supporting that, among other things, a victim was physically and sexually assaulted, drugged, held against their will and placed into sexual servitude by these known gang members in order to generate money for their gang.

- Transporting a minor for the purposes of sexual servitude;
- Renting hotel rooms for purposes of sexual servitude of a minor;
- Using proceeds from the sexual servitude of a minor to support each other and fellow street gang associates;

- Using violence and threats of violence to maintain the street gang’s control over a minor;

The Gang:
The Inglewood Family Gangster Bloods (IFGB), also known as the Inglewood Family Gang (IFG) and The Family, is a subset of the larger criminal street gang known as the Bloods. The Bloods formed in the Los Angeles area in the 1970’s as a rival gang to the Crips gang which had formed a decade earlier in that same region. The Inglewood Family gang joined the Blood’s movement and became the Inglewood Family Gangster Bloods. The city of Inglewood, California, located in the Los Angeles metropolitan area, sits to the west of the 110 Freeway. Gangs on this side of the 110 Freeway are considered West Side gangs. The first four sets of IFGB which formed were 77th Street, 80th Street, 92nd Street, and 94th Street. These gangs were based around Normandie Avenue which runs through Inglewood, but the gang eventually claimed additional territory. The gang claims Darby Park in Inglewood as their central base along with the area around it. The 77th Street, 80th Street, 92nd Street, and 94th Street subsets of IFGB eventually consolidated into the larger IFGB gang. Gang members incorporated the numbers 77, 80, 92, and 94 in their identifiers to show reverence to the original sets. These individual sets include cliques such as 77th Street, Rollin’ 80s, 92nd Street, 94th Street. The Inglewood Family Gang in the Dougherty County, Georgia area is part of the 80’s Street a/k/a Rollin 80’s clique.
*Members of the public should keep in mind that indictments contain only allegations against the individual against whom the indictment is sought. A defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty, and it will be the government’s burden at trial to prove the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of the allegations contained in the indictment.
