CEDAR RAPIDS – A member of the Mulla Mafia Gang out of Dubuque who dealt drugs was sentenced on Wednesday to more than two years in federal prison.
Frank Dontrell Washington, Jr., age 22, from Dubuque, Iowa, received the prison term after a December 7, 2016, jury verdict finding him guilty of possession with intent to distribute marijuana within 1,000 feet of a public elementary school and playground.
Evidence at trial showed that police searched Washington’s home in June 2016. During the search, the police found a distribution quantity of marijuana under Washington’s bed. During a recorded interview, Washington admitted he intended to sell the marijuana found in his residence. Evidence at the sentencing included hundreds of pages of Washington’s social media accounts depicting Washington and others with guns and drugs, and pictures of Washington making hand signals of the Mulla Mafia Gang, or MMG, a street gang in Dubuque.
Washington was sentenced in Cedar Rapids by United States District Court Judge Linda R. Reade. Washington was sentenced to 27 months’ imprisonment. A special assessment of $100 was imposed. He must also serve a four-year term of supervised release after the prison term. There is no parole in the federal system. Washington is being held in the United States Marshal’s custody until he can be transported to a federal prison.
The case was investigated by the Dubuque Police Department and Department of Homeland Security, Homeland Security Investigations, and prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Dan Chatham.
Worthless piece of shit – when he gets out he will probably be chamber of commerce bused to MC – future porch resident next to Sids.
I predict Frank will have several bullet holes in him and zero paycheck-stubs on him before he is thirty.
