Old Mill Court Gang Member Indicted on Racketeering Charges

A Rockville Centre resident was indicted on federal racketeering charges Wednesday.

Carl Perryman, 27, of Old Mill Court, was indicted on federal racketeering charges stemming from activities occurring between January 2002 and February 2012, police said.

According to the Rockville Centre Police Department, Perryman belongs to the ‘Old Mill Court Bloods,’ which is a criminal gang enterprise comprised primarily of individuals who reside in Rockville Centre. The furtherance of their gang activities is promoted through fear, intimidation, threats of violence, and by committing acts of violence.

Criminal behavior of the gang has included murder, attempted murder, robbery, assault, narcotics trafficking, witness tampering and witness retaliation, police said.

Perryman was indicted on 10 counts. According to police, the included charges are racketeering, racketeering conspiracy, conspiracy to distribute controlled substances, two counts of attempted murder, two counts of assault with a dangerous weapon (firearm), two counts of discharge of a firearm during crimes of violence: attempted murder and Assault, and conspiracy to commit murder. Two acts of robbery were also included in the indictment. 

If convicted, Perryman faces a sentence of life imprisonment, police said.

The indictment is the result of a three-year investigation and the efforts of the Rockville Centre Police Department detectives, acting with the F.B.I. Long Island Gang Task Force.

Rockville Centre Police Commissioner Charles Gennario thanked the U.S. Attorney’s Office, the F.B.I. Long Island Gang Task Force, and the Nassau County Police Department for their assistance and contributions to this case.

“Our number one goal is to keep our residents safe and this indictment is a big step in accomplishing that objective,” Gennario said. “The Rockville Centre Police Department wants to thank all of our partners in this case, and I particularly want to express my appreciation for the efforts of the F.B.I., the U.S. Attorney’s Office, and our colleagues at the Nassau County Police Department.”

The case will be adjudicated at the United States Eastern District Court in Central Islip.
