Gilbert Goons

The fight involving Maurnice Declue invokes memories of the Gilbert Goons.

The Gilbert Goons are a group of affluent teenagers from multiple southeast Valley high schools in Arizona. For over a year, they have been randomly attacking other teens outside fast-food restaurants, in mall parking lots, and at parks and house parties.

These attacks have been caught on video and have caused significant concern in the community.

In a tragic incident, Preston Lord, a 16-year-old, lost his life due to a gang-style attack by the Gilbert Goons during a Halloween party in the Phoenix suburb of Queen Creek.

The attack shocked the community, and activists have held vigils and marched to protest growing gang violence in Gilbert, Mesa, Chandler, and other Phoenix suburbs.

Authorities have made several arrests related to this case. Dominic Turner, William Owen Hines, and two 17-year-old boys are charged with felony first-degree murder and kidnapping.

Both juveniles are being charged as adults, and Turner also faces an aggravated robbery charge. Lord’s parents expressed that each arrest represents a step towards accountability and justice for their son.
