Overview
- Federal indictments unsealed on Wednesday charged 25 members and associates of two Minneapolis drug operations identified as the Family Mob and a second group linked to Amani Xavier Hudson Sr.
- An early‑morning enforcement action tied to the case produced 12 arrests and seizures of firearms and illegal drugs while authorities continue to seek remaining fugitives.
- The DEA says investigators traced attempts to traffic at least 333,000 deadly doses of fentanyl into Minneapolis over a five‑month span, and defendants face counts including conspiracy to distribute fentanyl and cocaine plus firearms offenses.
- Two defendants, Trevon Harris and Deangelo Davenport, were charged with murder during and in relation to a drug trafficking crime after prosecutors tied the groups to deadly violence in south Minneapolis.
- Officials from the U.S. Attorney’s Office, FBI, DEA, Minneapolis Police and Hennepin County Sheriff say the case disrupts open‑air drug markets near Lake Street and Nicollet Avenue but is only a partial response to broader public‑safety and overdose challenges in the community.
