Three purported leaders of a street gang faction that terrorized Englewood were found guilty of racketeering charges Wednesday after a five-week trial that included evidence from nearly a dozen murders and multiple shootings allegedly perpetrated by the “Goonie Gang” over 30 months.
Seated across the courtroom from the jury, defendants Romeo Blackman, Terrence Smith and Jolicious Turman alternated between impassivity and anger as jurors delivered a mixed verdict.
