Feds bust 3 alleged Crip ‘Babiez’ gangsters in shocking NYC cold-case murder of 12-year-old
Three accused members of the “Insane Crip Gangsters Babiez” were busted Thursday for fatally shooting a 12-year-old boy eating dinner inside a car in Brooklyn in a 2022 case of mistaken identity that shocked the city. Kade Lewin’s mother burst into tears as her son’s alleged shooters Ousmane Diallo, 24, and Mayel Bussereth, 26, were hauled in front of a judge to face federal charges of killing the boy while opening fire on a sedan they thought belonged to a gang rival. “She’s been waiting for a long time,” Pastor Gilford Monrose, the family’s spiritual adviser, said after the suspects were held without bail at a hearing in Brooklyn federal court. “There’s no counsel that can prepare you for this,” Monrose added. “There’s only God.” The killed boy’s mom Suzette Lewin wept, with a friend rocking her back and forth, in the courtroom gallery as a judge read aloud the charges against Diallo, Bussereth and a third alleged crew member, 25-year-old Jonah Luc, who allegedly served as the getaway driver, ferrying the killers to and from the scene of the East Flatbush shooting in a black Mercedes.

Chavez told Chalkbeat the issue of interpretation has come up repeatedly at previous Newark board meetings, including at the September meeting where he testified in Spanish without an interpreter. According to Chavez, León omitted portions of parents’ statements that Chavez said criticized how they and their children have been treated in district schools. In a review of the board video , Newark parents Sonia Pangul, Mayra Sanmartin, and Brenda Villatoro Villela can be heard testifying in Spanish about concerns regarding their children’s treatment in district schools and the lack of availability of music, sports, and
