Man accused of robbing victim while wearing ankle monitor for gun case will serve no prison time: records A Cook County judge approved a plea deal allowing a man accused of a violent road-rage robbery to avoid prison time, even though prosecutors said the crime happened while he was on an ankle monitor for a gun case. Robert Bray, 35, of Evergreen Park, had been released in September 2023 on electronic monitoring after posting a $500 deposit for unlawful use of a weapon by a felon. Prosecutors said that on January 2, 2024, Bray was involved in a minor traffic crash on East 47th Street while still wearing the monitor. They allege he aggressively confronted a 29-year-old driver, threatened him, grabbed his phone, and ordered his passenger to steal the victim’s Jeep Grand Cherokee. Bray allegedly shoved the victim against a wall and choked him as the SUV was driven away. Police identified Bray using surveillance footage, license plate data, ankle monitor records, and a photo lineup. He later pleaded guilty to robbery and unlawful use of a weapon by a felon. Although sentenced to six and three years concurrently, credit for time served, electronic monitoring, and sentence reductions led to his release the same day he entered custody. #Chicago #CookCounty #CrimeNews #CourtRecords #PublicSafety #CriminalJustice #CWBChicago #ChaunceyDatGuy

6 Alleged Chicago Gang Members Indicted in 13 Murders, CTA Bus Shooting, and RICO Case Federal prosecutors have indicted six alleged members and associates of the Faceworld street gang, accusing them of running a violent criminal organization responsible for at least 13 murders, multiple attempted murders, armed robberies, carjackings, and shootings on the South Side of Chicago. According to the U.S. Attorney’s Office, the violence included a shooting on a CTA bus and a July 2020 attack where gunmen opened fire on mourners at a funeral near 79th and Carpenter, wounding at least 15 people. Prosecutors also tied the gang to the 2019 murders of two young Walmart employees who were shot while sitting in a car after work. Investigators say the group used threats and intimidation to silence witnesses, promoted their crimes on social media, and trafficked cocaine and heroin in Chicago and Iowa. All six defendants are in custody and face racketeering conspiracy charges, with some eligible for life sentences or the death penalty if convicted. #Chicago #BreakingNews #CrimeNews #FederalIndictment #GangViolence #RICO #CTA #SouthSide #Justice #PublicSafety #ChaunceyDatGuy
