HOUSTON -- A federal prosecutor says the Aryan Brotherhood of Texas
is in "absolute chaos" after nearly 75 people were convicted following a
six-year investigation into the white supremacist gang, but others warn
the crime network won't be brought down by a single bust.
The
U.S. Justice Department secured a combined total of 900 years in prison
time for the convicted Aryan Brotherhood members after a federal probe
that began in 2008, the Houston Chronicle reported Sunday.
A review of records, court documents, transcripts and interviews by the
newspaper found that the roughly 2,000-member gang is now struggling to
rebuild.
"They are in chaos, absolute chaos," said David Karpel, a
Department of Justice attorney who spearheaded the prosecutions. "It
has reduced their power; they don't know who to trust."
