Feds say Aryan Brotherhood was behind six California murders, including two separate double homicides FRESNO — For the second time in the past year, federal prosecutors here say they have evidence that a California double-homicide was ordered by Aryan Brotherhood members and committed by men who saw the brutal twin killings as an entryway into the secretive all-white prison gang.Last year, prosecutors charged two incarcerated Aryan Brotherhood members with ordering the Oct. 4 2020 killings of Allan Roshanski, 34, of Vista, and Ruslan Magomedgadzhiev, 40, of Tarzana, both allegedly shot to death by a Southern California man named Justin Gray.

Stacked on top of a concurrent federal prosecution of the Aryan Brotherhood alleging five murders and four murder plots, this move is only the latest time in rec...
