The Men Who Ran America's Deadliest Prison Gang: Aryan Brotherhood Top 13

The Aryan Brotherhood has been called one of America’s deadliest prison gangs — a violent prison organization tied to coded messages, federal RICO cases, prison murders, drug trafficking, and power that reached far beyond the cell block. In this true crime documentary, we rank the Top 13 Aryan Brotherhood leaders connected to some of the most feared names in American prison history. From San Quentin to USP Leavenworth, USP Marion, USP Lewisburg, Pelican Bay, and ADX Florence, this video breaks down how prison gang leaders built influence behind bars, moved orders through hidden channels, and turned maximum-security prisons into command centers. This is not a story about criminals being “cool.” The Aryan Brotherhood is shown here as a warning — a brutal example of how prison gangs use fear, loyalty, silence, and violence to control people, destroy lives, and trap even their own members inside a system they thought gave them power. In this Aryan Brotherhood Top 13 ranking, we cover John Greschner, Michael Thompson, Edgar “The Snail” Hevle, William Sylvester, Danny Troxell, Wendell “Blue” Norris, Robert “Blinky” Griffin, Paul “Cornfed” Schneider, Christopher Overton Gibson, Ronald Yandell, Thomas “Terrible Tommy” Silverstein, Tyler Davis “The Hulk” Bingham, and Barry “The Baron” Mills.
