'Blood in, blood out'

Prosecutors lay out case in Aryan Brotherhood trial

SANTA ANA, California (AP) -- The federal government opened its case against four reputed leaders of a white supremacist prison gang with a simple slide that read: "The Aryan Brotherhood: Blood in, Blood out."

The phrase -- borrowed from the gang itself -- means that inmates must commit a murder to join the gang and can only leave when they die, Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael Emmick said.

"The Aryan Brotherhood is characterized, really, by its fearlessness with violence," he told jurors. "The members will sometimes kill in full view of guards or others."

Authorities arrested 40 alleged Aryan Brotherhood members in 2002 after a six-year investigation that aimed to dismantle the gang's leadership under a federal racketeering law originally aimed at the Mafia. Nineteen defendants struck plea bargains and one has died.

If convicted, 16 of the defendants could face the death penalty in one of the largest capital punishment cases ever filed in U.S. history. The first four defendants went on trial Tuesday; they have pleaded not guilty to the charges.

The indictment alleges a web of conspiracies to kill inmates who offended gang members, cheated on drug deals, failed to comply with leaders' orders or snitched to prison authorities. The alleged crimes also include orchestrating a prison war against a black gang that resulted in at least two killings.

Defense attorney H. Dean Steward rejected Emmick's claims that the crimes were ordered by the gang's leadership. He said most crimes were committed by individuals who had personal conflicts -- and not on the gang's behalf.

"The murders and assaults happened," Steward told jurors. "There's no dispute. The question is, 'Why?' Was there someone behind it, or was it a personal dispute between the people involved? That's the mystery you guys are going to have to decide."

Steward, who represents Barry "The Baron" Mills, said nearly all of the government's case was based on 42 jailhouse informants who had been coached, had months to get their stories straight, were housed in luxury units and offered incentives including immunity, reduced sentences and cash payments.

Mills, an alleged gang ringleader, is serving two life terms for murder after nearly decapitating an inmate in 1979. In the current trial, he faces a possible death sentence for allegedly orchestrating the 1997 killings of the two black inmates in Pennsylvania. He is accused of having a hand in all but one of the crimes listed in the indictment, Emmick said.

Another defendant, 58-year-old Tyler Davis "The Hulk" Bingham, could face the death penalty if convicted of the same alleged crimes.

Also on trial are Edgar "The Snail" Hevle, 54, and Christopher Overton Gibson, 46, who both could face life in prison if convicted.

Apparently murder.

The phrase -- borrowed from the gang itself -- means that inmates must commit a murder to join the gang and can only leave when they die, Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael Emmick said.
