About Rayful Edmond in brief
Rayful Edmond III is an American former drug trafficker in Washington, D. C. Edmond is largely credited with having introduced crack cocaine into the Washington area during the crack epidemic. In one year, Edmond’s organization, which employed 150 people, committed 30 murders. He was an avid fan of the Georgetown Hoyas, and frequently sat courtside with his entourage at the Capital Centre for home games. At the height of his empire, he became very friendly with several Hoyas players, including John Turner and Alonzo Mourning. Georgetown University basketball coach John Thompson is the only person to stand up to Edmond without consequence, initially causing some shock and surprise that there was no reprisal against Thompson for it.
