Today, in federal court in Brooklyn, Romeo Gonzalez was the 53rd and final defendant to be convicted in the prosecution of members and associates of the Bully Gang, a violent street gang based in the Bedford-Stuyvesant neighborhood of Brooklyn. With Gonzalez's conviction, all of the defendants charged in the case—across a series of Indictments and Criminal Informations—have been found guilty of their criminal conduct. Forty-eight defendants, including Gonzalez, pleaded guilty, and five defendants were convicted in two separate trials before United States District Judge Brian M. Cogan.
