My CHAZ research is incredibly surreal. Here are crimes that CHAZ medics or security have been either accused or convicted of: rape, sex trafficking, forced starvation, kidnapping, false imprisonment, grand theft auto, robbery in the second degree

second degree assault with “substantial bodily harm,” fourth degree assault on an intimate partner, second degree assault by strangulation, attempting to elude the police, trafficking in counterfeit drugs, endangerment while attempting to elude the police

possession with intent to distribute, criminal trespass, assaulting a law enforcement officer, assault of a household member, criminal harassment, statutory rape, distribution of drugs on school property, terroristic threats, and cocaine distribution

These are only people I've been able to identify and only crimes I've been able to confirm they were accused or convicted of in court (both civil and criminal). It doesn't include the vast majority I haven't identified or crimes committed in unknown jurisdictions

A decent number of these are just Raz or Zay Huncho, but you've also got all the crimes committed by Dan Baker, DeJaun Young, and Jaymie Jameson and a few minor convictions of other people for drug stuff.

DeJuan Young claimed that he was shot outside CHAZ by white supremacists, but the guy had a gofundme after getting shot in a totally different incident two years earlier and he's got a bunch of drug charges from New Jersey.

He clearly got shot because he's a fucking drug dealer

The reason this is important is because prior to the June 20th shootings (after which media outlets basically stopped talking about CHAZ) the media was claiming it was safe, like a street festival.

It was being patrolled by armed felons, wannabe terrorists, and drug dealers.

Dan Baker was in CHAZ with a gun. He was claiming to be a "medic" but he was also there for security stuff. While he was there, he told Gavin John (one of the only people to do serious journalism in CHAZ) that he was mad other CHAZians wouldn't help him build explosives

He openly told someone who was in CHAZ to do journalism that he was armed, that he'd fought with foreign militias, and that he wanted to build bombs. If journalists had done any research into who these people are, they would have known it would inevitably end in murder.
