Three gang members have been convicted of racketeering and murder charges, and could spend the rest of their lives in prison.
Myron Williams, 31, of Newark; Khalil Kelley, 25; and Roger Pickett, 24, both of Jersey City, were found guilty of the charges.
According to court documents, the trio is associated with a neighborhood street gang linked to the Marion Garden Housing Complex.
Over the past decade, the three men have committed three separate murders, including setting up rival gang members with phony drug deals and other meetups.
The convictions mark a significant blow to the gang's operations in Jersey City.
Sentencing is scheduled for April, and the three men face the possibility of life in prison.
