WAYS, MANNER AND MEANS TO ACCOMPLISH THE CONSPIRACY

The primary purpose of the conspiracy was to make money in and through the

distribution of cocaine, cocaine base, heroin and marijuana (collectively referred to hereinafter as

“controlled substances”). The ways, manners and means by which that purpose was carried out

included, but were not limited to, the following:

1. It was a part of the conspiracy that the defendants and conspirators would and did

distribute and possess with the intent to distribute controlled substances in the Cities of Virginia

Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Portsmouth and Hampton in the Eastern District of Virginia

(collectively referred to hereinafter as the “Tidewater area”) and in other areas of the Eastern

District of Virginia, Atlanta, Georgia; California; Miami, Florida; Phoenix, Arizona;

Albuquerque, New Mexico; Houston, Texas; Panama, Central America and elsewhere.

2. It was a further part of the conspiracy that the defendants and conspirators

procured controlled substances from sources of supply located in Texas, Florida, Georgia,

Arizona, California, and New York.

3. It was a further part of the conspiracy that the defendants and conspirators would

and did travel and cause others to travel in interstate and foreign commerce to facilitate the

distribution of controlled substances. The defendants and conspirators would and did travel, and

would and did facilitate travel by other defendants and conspirators to and from Georgia, Texas,

Arizona, California, Florida, New York, Virginia and Panama, Central America to facilitate the

procurement, purchase, transportation, delivery and distribution of shipments of controlled

substances and would and did transport and facilitate the transportation of the controlled

substances to the Tidewater area of the Eastern District of Virginia for distribution.

4. It was further a part of the conspiracy that the defendants and conspirators would

and did derive substantial gross receipts from the distribution of controlled substances, and

5

would and did spend the money derived from the sale of controlled substances in various ways

which furthered and promoted the conspiracy.

5. It was further a part of the conspiracy that the defendants and conspirators would

and did launder proceeds from the distribution of controlled substances through various

companies and corporations set up and controlled by the defendants and conspirators. These

companies and corporations include but are not limited to: Soul Providers Management, Soul

Providers Entertainment, D & A Trucking, Soul Provider Trucking and Encore Management.

6. It was a further part of the conspiracy that the defendants and conspirators would

and did play different roles, take upon themselves different tasks and participate in the affairs of

the conspiracy through various criminal acts. The defendants and conspirators would and did

make themselves and their services available at different times throughout the conspiracy and

would participate in selected narcotics ventures and narcotics related financial transactions on an

“as needed” basis. The roles assumed and carried out by the defendants and coconspirators were

interchangeable at various times throughout the conspiracy. Some of the roles the defendants

and conspirators assumed and carried out included, among others: narcotics supplier,

leader/organizer, supervisor/manager, distributor/redistributor, broker, financier, transporter,

money launderer, money order and cashier’s check purchaser, depositor of drug proceeds, driver,

drug preparer and packager, runner, facilitator, bodyguard/escort, purchaser and provider of

handguns, enforcer, and courier for United States currency and controlled substances.

7. It was further a part of the conspiracy that the defendants and conspirators would

and did use residences, motel rooms and vehicles, to store, possess with intent to distribute and

distribute controlled substances and to store money and other proceeds derived from the

distribution of controlled substances.

6

8. It was further a part of the conspiracy that the defendants and conspirators would

and did meet at various times and places, including, but not limited to: residences located at 1100

Ricks Court, Chesapeake, Virginia, 4728 Windemere Court, Apartment 102, Virginia Beach,

Virginia, and 333 Southgate Avenue, Virginia Beach, Virginia; and Encore Lounge nightclub

located at 1889 Virginia Beach Boulevard, Virginia Beach, Virginia, to package controlled

substances, using paraphernalia, to deliver packages of controlled substances, and to receive the

proceeds from the sales of controlled substances.

9. It was further a part of the conspiracy that the defendants and conspirators would

and did manufacture cocaine base, commonly known as “crack,” by cooking it in a variety of

ways.

10. It was a further part of the conspiracy that the defendants and conspirators would

and did use various methods to conceal the conspiracy and their unlawful drug activities to

insure the conspiracy’s continuing success. These methods include, but are not limited to the

following:

a. The defendants and conspirators would and did talk, and attempt to talk, in

code in an effort to avoid being associated with the conspiracy and to evade detection.

For instance, the defendants and conspirators rarely, if ever, uttered the words “cocaine,”

“marijuana,” “heroin,” ”crack,” “money,” “guns,” “firearms” or “cell phone” in

conversation with other defendants and coconspirators. Rather, the defendants used

coded language and referred to marijuana in terms including but not limited to: “smoke,”

“puff the magic dragon,” “buds” and “shake;” referred to cocaine as “white,” “white

sale,” and “birds;” referred to heroin as “brown” and “beige;” referred to controlled

substances generally as “folders,” and “work;” referred to money as “change;” referred to

firearms as “joints;” and referred to a cell phone as a “junk,” “joint,” “watch,” “horn,”

7

and “file.” In addition, the defendants and conspirators typically referred to monetary

amounts or drug quantities only as single numbers (e.g., $5,600 was referred to simply as

“56”) or in other unconventional terms, such as a “pound” which meant a five kilogram

quantity of cocaine.

b. The defendants and conspirators would and did evade and attempt to

evade detection by engaging in counter-surveillance.

c. The defendants and conspirators would and did change distribution

locations to evade detection and would conduct transactions secretly to avoid detection.

d. The defendants and conspirators would and did use alias names and

nicknames to hide their true identity.

e. The defendants and conspirators would and did use false addresses to hide

their true residences. For instance, ANTHONY GONZALEZ routinely provided 333

Southgate Avenue Virginia Beach, Virginia as his address to commercial airlines

ticketing personnel and law enforcement officers during the conspiracy, when, in fact,

333 Southgate Avenue is the address of E.M. and GONZALEZ has resided exclusively at

other locations during the conspiracy. CHARLES SANDERLIN caused his Virginia

driver’s license, vehicle registrations and cell phone account to list 6075 Foresttown

Drive, Norfolk, Virginia as SANDERLIN’s address, when, in fact, SANDERLIN has

resided exclusively at other locations during the conspiracy.

f. The defendants and conspirators would and did hold themselves out as

music producers, rappers, entrepreneurs, club owners, clothing designers, and other

legitimate occupations in order to conceal the true source of their income and to conceal

the conspiracy and their unlawful drug activities to insure the conspiracy’s continuing

success

8

11. It was a further part of the conspiracy that the defendants and conspirators would

and did use communication facilities in a variety of ways to further and promote the conspiracy,

including, but not limited to, the following:

a. The defendants and conspirators would and did obtain, change, and use

cellular telephones, some of which were subscribed to in nominee names, to contact other

members;

b. The defendants and conspirators would and did obtain cellular telephones

and then use the telephones to contact other members to engage in multiple acts involving

the criminal drug conspiracy;

c. The defendants and conspirators would and did preserve and protect

profits of the conspiracy through the use of cellular telephones and other telephones;

d. The defendants and conspirators would and did promote and enhance the

conspiracy and its members' and its associates' activities through the use of cellular

telephones and other telephones.

e. The defendants and conspirators would and did change/drop cellular

telephones frequently in order to evade monitoring and detection.

12. It was further a part of the conspiracy that the defendants and conspirators would

and did receive, obtain, and purchase numerous firearms which the defendants and conspirators

shared and transferred among themselves and which the defendants and conspirators used,

carried, possessed, brandished and discharged during and in relation to and in furtherance of the

conspiracy. It was further a part of the conspiracy that the defendants and conspirators would

and did use residences and open air locations adjacent to the residences to use, store, possess and

have firearms available for their use, to protect, to further, and to promote the conspiracy.
