Al Profit's American Dope Series: Detroit

[Scandalust313]

The Chambers Brothers were a criminal organization heavily involved in the distribution of crack cocaine in the city of Detroit, Michigan during the 1980s. The brothers consisted of: B.J., Larry, Willie and Otis Chambers. They also had three other sisters and a set of twin brothers. One of the twins, Fredrick, became known for being a top notch military drill sergeant in California. The siblings moved to Memphis, Tennessee while the four brothers became notorious nationally when the Detroit Police Department confiscated video tapes of the brothers counting their laundry baskets full of money, and flaunting their excessive wealth. Their mother died in 2003.

Our first story shows just how a very small dope case can get linked to the big fellas very easily, if anyone makes a mistake or is weak in some way.

“Is everything still everything?” A voice asks on a wiretapped phone call. “Yeah, everything is still everything” the other voice answers back. It is the evening of Sept. 14, 2004, in A T L Georgia, and a task force of local, state, and Federal agents have are listening to a crack dealer named Rafael "Smurf" Allison. Smurf and a guy called "Bowlegs" were not doing a very good job of having a coded conversation that sounded like a drug deal about to go down.

Despite confidently telling “Bowlegs” it was all good, Smurf hung up and dialed a number and asked the guy who answered the same question. "Is everything still everything?" And the guy answered just like Smurf Allison, "Yeah, everything is still everything."

The investigators were part of the federal (for High Intensity Drug Trafficking Area) program, which sets up shop in certain big cities and targets anyone they can get intelligence on, for major dope cases. They followedSmurf as he left his neighborhood near Turner Field and drove to an apartment complex off Howell Mill Road.

And thanks to the wiretap on Smurf's phone, it was only 2 days later when a Fulton County judge granted a request to wiretap phone the guy Smurf had gone to see off Howell Mill Road- Mr. Decarlo Hoskins. Three days of listening to Hoskins proved fruitful. It sounded as if Decarlo was about to do a big coke deal with three dudes. He told them over the phone to meet him at "his spot." HIDTA agents took position at his apartment complex and waited.

Dexter "Sosa" Hussey was the head of logistics for the Black Mafia Family (BMF). He meet Big Meech and Southwest T Flenory back in 1985 and over the next 20 years he likely transported over $100 Million in Coke and Cash. He served a Federal Prison term for his role in the BMF conspiracy and lives freely in Detroit today.

damn, missed this whole thread.

I peeped the interview with Boone some years back, but I'mma check out the other videos though it's prolly gonna be a lot I already know.

As foul as it was in Tha D back in the 80's, a lot of us that lived through it still have a sense of nostalgia for that time.

While finishing his B.A. at Morehouse University in Atlanta, Jabari Hayes fell in with a circle of drug dealers that would eventually become known as "BMF" aka the "Black Mafia Family"

April 2004: A suspected BMF member named Jabari Hayes is stopped on a Missouri highway for the second time in a month. Police find nearly $600,000 in his vehicle the first time, and nearly $9 million worth of cocaine the second.


Despite Jabari's upbringing making him predisposed to a certain type of future, Jabari defied the odds by getting his college degree and becoming a successful businessman. As a member of Black Mafia Family, Jabari maintained his core beliefs of honesty, integrity and managed to never become violent despite being in a world that breeds violence at every turn. More importantly, after paying his debt to society, today, Jabari Hayes is again a successful businessman and now a law abiding citizen.
