A gang member from Victorville was convicted in U.S. District Court on racketeering and drug charges and faces a life prison term, federal officials said. Gary White, aka Big J-Killa, 47, is scheduled to be sentenced by a U.S. District judge on Nov. 19, the U.S. Attorney’s Office said. White was one of 46 defendants charged in 2010 following a multi-agency investigation into the Pueblo Bishops Bloods street gang’s violent and intimidating activities in the Pueblo del Rio housing project in South Los Angeles, prosecutors said. White was found guilty Monday of violating the federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act along with two Los Angeles men, Jermaine Hardiman and Anthony Gabourel. Additionally, White was convicted of conspiring to distribute cocaine, crack cocaine and heroin, and drug trafficking within a public housing project and near schools and parks. Thirty-nine others were previously convicted in the investigation; prosecutors dismissed one defendant’s case and three others remain to be tried on Aug. 22, officials said. The two-year investigation that led to the August 2010 arrests was joined by the FBI, the Los Angeles Police Department, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s Office of Inspector General and the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s Office.
