If you say the word extortion in Harlem, the next words would probably be "THE PREACHER CREW" aka "THE FAMILY" and "THE BLACK HAND OF DEATH!"
They were called the most ruthless men in Harlem, extorting drug dealers and killing by torture those who didn't pay. They've been accused of a lot of murders dating back to the 70's. When individuals were ordered to be murdered, acid was poured on their bodies to remove tattoos that could possibly identify them. Thier bodies were then dismembered and left in a crumbling abandoned building.
Crew members were then ordered to scrub down the killing room with boric acid after each murder.
After three decades of allegedly terrorizing, extorting, murdering and torturing Harlem’s major drug dealers, "THE PRECHER CREW" was captured by the F.B.I.'s C11 squad.
The PRECHER CREW"S leader Mr. Clarence "Preacher" Heatley allegedly cooperated with the F.B.I., snitching on his own crew!
The Preacher crew's chief lieutenant: Mr John Cuff aka "Captain Jack Frost (rumored the only man preacher feared)", was sentenced to life plus 145 years after preacher's testimony.
The Hip-Hop community has whispered about it for years.

This is the secret story of Hip Hop that the NYPD doesn't want you to see
Sol (Tariq Trotter) is an up-and-coming hip-hop artist from the Jamaican section of Crown Heights. Sara (Karen Goberman) is a straightlaced Jewish girl from a very religious family. Their worlds collide (literally) one night when a car carrying Sol and his pal Scratch (Bonz Malone) collides with a car driven by Sara's boyfriend Judah (David Vadim). Judah and Scratch quickly get into a heated argument about who is at fault, but Sol and Sara share an instant, mysterious connection.
Tensions mount between the Jewish and black communities as Judah and a group of Jewish vigilantes seeks vengeance on Scratch, and Scratch retaliates by blowing up Judah's car. Judah and his friends retaliate by burning down the door to Club Dread, a popular hip-hop nightspot where Sol and his group are playing.
As the situation escalates, Sol and Sara reject the madness the see coming from their friends and relatives, and seek refuge in each other.
