A gang based on Jacksonville’s Westside is now “functionally extinct' after a multi-agency, six-month operation that eventually netted 19 arrests, Sheriff T.K. Waters announced today.
Waters said the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office worked closely with the State Attorney’s Office and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives during “Operation Crown Down,” eventually arresting 19 documented members of the “Insane Gangster Disciples” gang over the course of the six-month operation.
Waters said the operation began in May 2022 after Chase Robison was charged with murder and investigators learned he was a member of IGD. After learning that the members trafficked in drugs and engaged in acts of violence, investigators began working arrest as many members of the gang as possible, Waters said.The 19 members arrested have cases pending against them in both state and federal court for charges including murder, manslaughter stemming from a fentanyl overdose, carjacking, drug trafficking, grand theft and dealing in stolen property.
