Former Crips general convicted of murder | Toronto & GTA | News | Toronto Sun

Former Crips general convicted of murder | Toronto & GTA | News | Toronto Sun: "former co-leader of one of Toronto’s most notorious gangs was found guilty Wednesday of second-degree murder and attempted murder charges in a Club Whispers shooting spree.
After a day of deliberations, a jury found Peter Johnson, 27, guilty of killing innocent bystander Jeffrey Lewis, 31, and wounding Simeon Chase on July 2, 2006 outside the Weston and Rogers Rd.-area club.
The 44-year-old Chase barely survived but still has the bullet lodged millimetres above his heart.
Johnson, who was aiming for bouncer Albert Grant who had him in a headlock, was given an automatic life sentence for murder. His parole ineligibility period — between 10 and 25 years — must be set by Justice Ian Nordheimer in a hearing to begin Friday.
Once Grant released Johnson from the headlock, Johnson fired from point-blank range, but missed Grant, striking Lewis in the head. The shooting was captured on video, which was played at the trial.
Johnson — nicknamed “P Dawg” — was once a co-leader of one of Toronto’s most notorious gangs, the Driftwood Crips.
This was Johnson’s second trial on these allegations as an earlier trial ended with a hung jury that indicated nine members believed he was guilty and three believed he was innocent."
