Any boston people heard of this guy. Pretty powerful figure back during the crack epidemic. The article about five pages long so i left a link to the rest of it.

When God Walked Through the Projects
Twenty years after he became the first man in the state to get life in prison for dealing crack, Darryl Whiting's twisted legacy lives on
By GEORGE P. HASSETT | October 7, 2011

Boston's crack era effectively began in late 1986, when Darryl Whiting stepped into Roxbury's Orchard Park projects. The jewels he wore, rumored to be made from a huge diamond he brought back from Africa, seemed to blind the whole city to what was coming.
They already called him "God." The nickname came from his religion; he'd joined the Five Percent Nation, an offshoot of the Nation of Islam, as a 12-year-old juvenile delinquent. In this sect, the men all take the name Allah`. Originally a stick-up kid in New York City, he'd just been paroled from six years in state prison. He was 30 years old and looking for a career change and a new city.

Whiting relocated to Boston on the eve of a boom in the cocaine trade. Drug counselors had warned police of an increase in cocaine smoking in Dorchester and Roxbury over the past year. The city's first crack house was already in operation, in the 100 block of Columbia Road. But it was not until Whiting began to build his $11 million empire that the full force of the crack epidemic hit Boston. By the time he was done, the dirt path around Orchard Park projects known as Bump Road was a 24-hour cocaine depot that grossed as much as $100,000 a day

Covered in FEDS magazine, Darryl "God" Whiting's first novel is available now.

Tyrell “Frost” Montgomery is a small time drug dealer and gangbanger who’s tired of the senseless gang killings and the non-productive way that gangs are living. He wants change and to do something about it, but doesn’t know how. That’s until infamous ex-drug kingpin and rebel 5%er Darryl “God” Whiting comes home from federal prison after serving twenty years of a life sentence for engaging in a continuing criminal enterprise and he gets him to take him under his wing for some schooling. Then as G seeks revenge on eight of his former underlings, who betrayed him and forty two of his other confederates by cooperating with the government against them, he teaches Frost how to unify the gangs through unity of purpose, commercialize bangin’ by forming a drug distribution franchise called the Gangsters Consortium, and build a multi-billion dollar international conglomerate as they change the face of bangin’ by TAKIN’ IT TO ANOTHER LEVEL.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Darryl Whiting was born in Corona Queens New York and was raised in a single family household of four sisters and two brothers by his beloved mother Rose. He has been featured several times a year over the past fourteen years on the television program American Justice on A&E. LL Cool J also portrayed him in the 1998 film “In Too Deep” with Omar Epps and Nia Long. He is presently serving a life sentence in Hazelton Federal Penitentiary awaiting a decision on his motion to have his conviction overturned on a claim of actual innocence after the governments cooperating witnesses recanted their testimony against him and presented evidence exculpating him.
