When the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) infiltrated and dismantled a major fentanyl ring based in Renton, the department found it was led by one family that included a high-profile, well-known Seattle-area activist.

Fourteen people were indicted in federal court Wednesday, including five members of the Jackson family, Mandel, Marquis, Miracle, Markell and Matelita -- the executive director of SE Network SafetyNet, a community group that is part of the Boys & Girls Clubs of King County. Matelita, also known as Marty, often led the charge for restorative justice and other pathways to get kids away from gangs and gun violence, particularly in the South Seattle region.

Mandel, 50, is Matelita's husband. Marquis, 31, and Miracle, 22, are Matelita and Mandel's two children, and Markell, 21, is Matelita's stepchild.
