Two cousins of alleged 28s gang boss Ralph Stanfield were shot dead recently. Stanfield, who, together with his wife Nicole Johnson, has been in state custody since their arrest at their home in the upmarket suburb of Constantia at the end of September. Stanfield was the leader of The Firm, a gang conglomerate with a heavy 28s membership. Stanfield’s uncle Colin Stanfield was believed to have been the leader of The Firm before his death in 2004.
