Flatbush Father-And-Son Drug-Dealing Duo Get Jail Time, Feds Say

FLATBUSH, BROOKLYN — The second half of a father-and-son drug-dealing duo faces 10 years in prison for co-running Flatbush's Nineties Crew gang, federal prosecutors said Friday.

Tammeco Cargill, 36, was sentenced to 121 months in prison after a Brooklyn Federal Court jury convicted him of conspiring to traffic drugs and commit passport fraud in December, said Richard Donoghue, U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of New York.

Cargill, an armed enforcer, was sentenced months after his father Winston "Pops" Cargill, 57, got 36 months for racketeering, prosecutors said.

“Tammeco and Winston Cargill will pay the price for contributing to their street gang’s corrosive impact on the quality of life and public safety in the Canarsie and Flatbush,” said Donoghue.

“Eliminating violent street gangs is a priority of this Office and our law enforcement
partners.”

The violent Nineties Crew sold thousands of pounts of marijuana worth hundreds of thousands of dollars from stash houses spattered across Brooklyn, said prosecutors.

The younger Cargill was an enforcer while "Pops" supplied the drugs and both Cargills allegedly bought fake passports to travel to and from Jamaica, said prosecutors.
