Federal authorities are actively pursuing Eugene ‘Big U’ Henley Jr., a long-time gang leader who is wanted in connection with various criminal activities, including murder and racketeering. Henley, who has been posing as an entertainment entrepreneur and community activist, is considered a fugitive following his indictment for conspiracy to violate the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act.
In addition to Henley, two other members of his gang have been arrested, while 10 others have been charged with federal crimes. The criminal enterprise led by Henley, known as Big U Enterprise, operated like a mafia organization, engaging in crimes such as murder, extortion, human trafficking, robbery, and fraud.
One of the murders linked to Henley involved an aspiring musician who recorded a diss song about him. Henley allegedly shot the musician in the head and attempted to cover up the crime by ordering witnesses not to speak to the police. He also defrauded the government by submitting a fraudulent application for a COVID-19 relief loan and embezzled funds from his charity, Developing Options, which was meant to deter youth from gang violence.
Federal authorities have emphasized the serious nature of the charges against Henley and his associates, highlighting the widespread criminal activities conducted by the gang. The case underscores the complex and multifaceted criminal enterprises that operate within gang networks, and the efforts of law enforcement to dismantle them.
