Home Of Former Detroit Kingpin Raided; Accused Of Selling Heroin

7850388_G — Former Detroit kingpin Frank Usher

A one-time convicted murderer and Detroit drug kingpin Frank Usher is back in handcuffs.

Frank Lee Usher got a life sentence for murdering and beheading three people back in the 1980s, but he was a free man ever since a successful appeal in 1994 – until now.

On Thursday morning, Usher’s Southfield home was raided, accused of selling heroin to undercover federal agents.

Police once believed he may have been involved in 15 murders but he was convicted of three. He was also previously convicted of aggravated assault and a felon in possession of a firearm.

Usher was sent to Jackson Prison, sentenced to life for a triple murder in 1979 that shocked the city. Two men and a woman were shot multiple times, beheaded with their hands cut off at the Federated Democratic Club on the east side.

Usher was one of five charged with the murders. After serving 15 years he had his sentence overturned on appeal by a technicality.

Investigators say Usher sells heroin with another suspect at a second house on St. Aubin and E. McNichols.

FOX 2 had the only cameras rolling as ATF agents and Wayne County deputies take Usher into custody.

Usher told a judge that he is retired from a restaurant position since 2002. Prosecutors say he is able to pay for a large residence on Webster near Southfield and 12 Mile.

Agents seized Usher’s black Ford F-150 truck while at the same time the house was being raided on St. Aubin and three other suspects taken into custody.

Some who live near the drug house say that it has been a source of danger and fear.

“Yeah, I wish they could get rid of all of them,” said a neighbor. “We’ve got kids around here.”

No bond was given for Usher, 71, whose past convictions are being reviewed.

He will be held in Wayne County Jail until a possible arraignment Friday in court.

Rival Bloods, Crips And Black Guerilla Family Gangs Unite In Baltimore Against Police Brutality

What a beautiful sight to behold.

In the wake of the Baltimore uprisings, rival gangsters put down their guns and flags to foster unity and stand against police brutality.

The public display of unity between urban gangs is definitely a positive step in the right direction. It feels good to see togetherness among young black youth and adults during these times in which racial division and tension has reached its climax.

As an African American woman, it disturbs me deeply every time I hear of news of another unarmed black man being killed by police, but as a “realist” I understand that there is a deeper underlining issue at hand. We as a race must set a better example, and in order to demand respect and true equality, we MUST first respect our own.

A Twitter post that I ran across rang true:

“Police will not stop killing black men until black men stop killing black men”.

Hopefully more unity (and less violence) among gangs will help to promote positive changes within black communities and help re-invent how blacks and minorities are viewed by law enforcement, the judicial system and –possibly the world.

It is an effort that must be put forth by us all.

Several photos purportedly showing members of the usually warring gangs posing together have been shared on social media, in an alliance apparently brokered by the Nation of Islam activists in honour of Freddie Gray, who died of a spinal injury while in police custody and whose funeral served as the catalyst for the riots.

One photo sees men in red bandanas sitting next to men in blue bandanas with their fists in the air, while a video shows members of each gang with their arms around each other explaining that they’ve put their differences aside because they don’t want people to get hurt.

“I can say with honesty those brothers demonstrated they can be united for a common good,” said Carlos Muhammad, a minister at Nation of Islam’s Mosque No. 6. “At the rally, they made the call that they must be united on that day. It should be commended.”

“We can unite and stop killing one another,” he added to The Daily Beast, “and the Bloods and the Crips can help rebuild their community.”
