Six leaders of the Black Souls street gang were convicted on racketeering and drug charges Saturday afternoon and now face sentences of up to life in prison.
Prosecutors said the gang, headed by Cornell Dawson, controlled a six-square block area of the West Side, centered on a brisk business selling cocaine and heroin near the corner of West Monroe and Pulaski.
