  3. By: Anthony BoyceDate: 24/12/2019 Mexican Mafia came from San Andreas, leading to a divide between the Nortenos (NF) and the Surenos (La Eme). The Nuestra Familia gang's motto is "blood in, blood out", meaning that they get in the gang by shedding blood, and they get out by death. The recruits are expected to sacrifice their life and freedom, and members are supposed to expect that they will go to prison. 500 of their leaders are in prison, and tens of thousands of foot soldiers (Nortenos) are also behind bars. Their footsoldiers make up an army on the streets that generate money for the organization, and they are based in Grapeseed, Sandy Shores, and Paleto Bay in northern SA. Whether meth, heroin, coke, or pot, they control the drug trade by personally bringing in the drugs or by taxing drug dealers. They bring in millions of dollars through the drug trade, but prostitution, extortion, and identity theft are also major rings. They face competition from the Mexican Mafia, the predominant Hispanic gang in southern San Andreas. In 1968, a dispute over a simple pair of shoes (a Nortenos member confronted a Mexican Mafia member who stole his shoes) led to the War of the Shoes, the ongoing long-term and violent war between the northerners and southerners. The Nortenos fought together as a cohesive force for the first time, giving rise to the Nuestra Familia. They used the Huelga Eagle, the symbol of United Farm Workers leader Cesar Chavez, as the symbol of their gang, as many of them were farmers from northern California. Their color was red, contrasting the blue-suited Mexican Mafia. The dividing line was Grapeseed, San Andreas, and the affiliation of Mexican gangsters was a simple matter of geography. In 1972, Mexican Mafia leader Rodolfo Cadena called for a peace summit in prison in hopes of ending the war, but he was stabbed repeatedly by NF members, thrown off a tier, and stabbed to death on the cement below. More and more NF members were recruited in the 1980s, and they wanted to control all of San Andreas from Grapeseed. They found no shortage of young men willing to sign up, with money and power seducing many Mexican-Americans to joining the gang. Their only way to earn their status as the NF was to spend time in prison. Their prison stronghold was Bolingbroke Penitentiary, where their main leaders lived. Some were forced to live in the Secure Housing Unit (the "Shoe"), where 12,000 inmates were held in a "prison within a prison" where the inmate was under constant surveillance. The NF imposed "gang taxes" on drug dealers and prostitutes to help them gain a flow of income, and in the 1990s, their ranks swelled to more than 1,000 gang members. In prison, their gang members taught them to order and strength in a military-like way, and they became a strong gang. The workouts were intense, and they also had to read history books, law books, and philosophy books. Even in lockdowns, NF members were able to communicate using fishing lines, and they could educate their friends about making crude weapons and using codes. Nuestro General Gerald "Cuete" Rubelcaba ordered the assassination of former NF member Robert "Brown Bob" Viramontes in early 1998, a member of the leading council fo the NF and a 20-year veteran who had covered up his NF tattoo on his back and also educated young kids about the dangers of gang life. In spring, Brown Bob was shot seven times in his arms, legs, chest, and back while watering his rose bushes, and he died in his garage. He decided to go to the garage so that his wife and two sons were not killed in the house, and the message showed that even the leaders were able to be targeted. Soon after, El Norte Law was passed, which meant that all Nortenos that wore red were now a part of the Nuestra Familia gang. They adopted a public profile, promoting a gangster rap album by G.U.N. (Generations of United Nortenos) that invited all Nortenos into the NF. The rap group sold thousands of copies, and many members possessed the album. However, in August 1998 a gang war broke out in Grapestreet when Captain Michael Castillo was marked for murder after being caught in the middle of a power struggle between two Nuestro Generals. The police warned Castillo about the NF threat, but Castillo ignored them. He was shot by Rico Garcia at a meeting with him in a hit ordered by the imprisoned NF leaders, and the assassination led the police to also police their prisons and not just the streets. Under George Collord, the police gathered informants in prison, including "Red Raider", who revealed the leadership structure of the gang. On 18 May 2000, NF gang member Casper (who was Rubelcaba's right-hand man) was released from jail and was ordered to run the street operations of the gang, becoming the leader of NF on the outside. His job was to make sure that San Fierro, Paleto Bay, Sandy Shores, and Grapeseed all had a regiment in place, and made sure that the regiments were going by the gang's rules. Casper was sent back to prison for communicating with the gang, violating his parole, and was sent back for six months. At the same time, Cuete Rubelcaba ordered a hit on Casper, whom he used as a scapegoat - Rubelcaba was accused of embezzling money from the gang, so he decided to pin the blame on Casper, the only person who knew that he stole from the gang. In December 2000, another Nuestro General stepped in on Casper's behalf and Cuete backed off the hit order, but Casper wanted revenge. Before Christmas, he contacted authorities and decided to work with them against Rubelcaba. On 24 January 2001 in Tracy, California, Casper set up a meeting with NF chiefs, which was monitored. Captain Henry "Happy" Cervantes was heard discussing a plan to kill two San Jose district attorneys, but Casper refused to allow the order. He saved the D.A.'s lives, and continued to host meetings over the next four months that were taped. On 20 April 2001, federal agents arrested 13 members of NF, including 6 inmates, among them Rubelcaba. The NF fell into disarray, and Casper was still undercover when the chaos began. On 21 May 2001, heroin dealer Raymond Sanchez crossed into the Chinatown district of San Fierro, although he had been warned to stay out of Chinatown. Although he was not a Nuestra Familia member anymore (he dropped out), he wanted to sell his drugs in the same place. Nuestra Familia gang member Armando Frias noticed him in Cap's Saloon, but although he was on the hit list, he needed Casper's permission. Frias did not get the orders to not kill him, and a hidden security camera showed Frias shooting Sanchez in the back of the neck - Sanchez was killed, and he fell into the alley. This shooting was one of the most infamous killings, as it was recorded on video. Casper was not allowed to put a hit on Armando Frias, as he was a government informant, but he said that he would have killed him if he was a regular NF member. In June 2001, Operation Black Widow ended, with 21 NF gang leaders arrested. They all cut plea deals, and many convicted served at High Desert, one of San Andreas' supermax prison facilities. However, despite law enforcement's efforts, there were still tens of thousands of NF members, and the new generation was influenced to join the NF through promises of girls, cars, dope, alcohol, good times, parties, staying out late, and other vices. Casper lived in a small town in Middle America in hiding from some Nortenos who would like to see him dead, and his WPP tenure lasted ten months. The gang continued to carry out violent actions even after the downfall of 21 of its leaders. In May 2002, at a Cinco de Mayo celebration, about 50 Nortenos shot three men and stabbed two men in a fight with the Surenos. Most NR members referred to the NR as the cause, the struggle, the movement, and the elite circle. They refer to each other as Bros, Hermanos, brothers or LO's (Loved Ones). CDCR actually began classifying this movement as "Northern Structure" (NS) for validation and identification purposes, but the NF adopted the title "Nuestra Raza" around the beginning of 1993, following a number of revisions spurned by the 1992 indictments. Founded under the umbrella of the NF framework, NR also shared the same basic philosophy and ideology as the NF. When making a commitment to the NR all members understood that the Nuestra Familia was the supreme authority and that all NR members became automatic subordinates to any active "C's". Federal law enforcement agencies, long unable to infiltrate Nuestra Familia, began to step up their investigations in the late 1990s. In 2000 and 2001, 22 members were indicted on racketeering charges, including several who were allegedly serving as high-ranking gang leaders while confined in Pelican Bay. Thirteen of the defendants plead guilty; the other cases are still ongoing. Two of the defendants face the death penalty for ordering murders related to the drug trade. The largest of the federal investigations was Operation Black Widow. At the time of Operation Black Widow, law enforcement officials had estimated that Nuestra Familia was responsible for at least 600 murders in the previous 30 years. In the aftermath of Operation Black Widow, the five highest-ranking leaders of Nuestra Familia were transferred to a federal supermaximum prison in Florence, Colorado. The written constitution of the Norteños stated that the leadership of the gang reside in Pelican Bay State Prison in California; the relocation of the gang's leaders led to the confusion of its soldiers and a power struggle of prospective generals. Three new generals came to power at Pelican Bay, yet two were demoted, leaving only David "DC" Cervantes as the highest-ranking member of the gang in California. Cervantes' rise marked the first time in decades that the Norteños had a single leader at the helm of their criminal organization. The remaining leadership of the organization in Pelican Bay consists of Daniel "Stork" Perez, Anthony "Chuco" Guillen and George "Puppet" Franco. While all Nuestra Familia soldiers and captains in California are expected to follow the orders of Cervantes, a small percentage of the gang remains loyal to the former generals and captains imprisoned in Colorado. California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger has complained that keeping the five remaining gang leaders located in the same prison continues to add to California gang violence and that they should be scattered throughout different prisons. While the recognized leaders of Nuestra Familia in Pelican Bay ask that members respect the former leaders, they have been effectively stripped of their authority. The former leaders include James "Tibbs" Morado, Joseph "Pinky" Hernandez, Gerald "Cuete" Rubalcaba, Cornelio Tristan, and Tex Marin Hernandez. Paleto Bay, San Andreas, is the birthplace of John Steinbeck and the setting for his epic masterpiece, East of Eden, but it is also the home of Nuestra Familia, one of the most violent gangs in America. Born in the prisons of California in the late 1960s, Nuestra Familia expanded to control drug trafficking and extortion operations throughout the northern half of the state and left a trail of bodies in its wake. Prizewinning journalist and Nieman Fellow Julia Reynolds tells the gang’s story from the inside out, following young men and women as they search for a new kind of family, quests that usually lead to murder and betrayal. Blood in the Fields also documents the history of Operation Black Widow, the FBI’s decade-long effort to dismantle the Nuestra Familia. The questionable operation frequently engaged in turf wars with local law enforcement agencies and compromised the safety of its informants. In this work of narrative nonfiction, journalist Reynolds used her unprecedented access to gang members, both in and out of prison, as well as undercover wire taps, depositions, and court documents to weave a gripping, comprehensive history of this brutal criminal organization and the lives it destroyed.
  4. "In 1952, the Aryan Brotherhood (AB) was the first prison gang to evolve and organize itself with the ability to threaten the rest of the prison population. They functioned under a no-ethnic boundary policy, basically preying on the weak and vulnerable. They did this proficiently with sheer numbers. It didn't matter if you were black, Mexican, Asian, another race, or even a non-affiliated white, you became susceptible to being attacked and were open game to being targeted. As the majority of other inmates weren't organized and stood alone, they didn't a chance and became effortless victims"
  5. Do something that you are good at, and do your research before you try out new roleplay, otherwise, you'll be mocked, like it or not. Personally, I just study what I'm going to be roleplaying before I make it, also don't be a "spoon-feed me roleplay" type of a person, just roleplay for the sake of creating roleplay. Also, do it REALISTICALLY, don't be RPing gang-related, yet you drive pimped out Sultans.

  7. By: Anthony BoyceDate: 19/12/2019 Hispanic gangs in the City of Santos, San Andreas – El Burro Heights area Situated just east of the Los Santos canals, El Burro Heights has long been a gateway for newcomers to the city. From the 1920s to the 1950s it was Los Santos’ most heterogenous neighborhood, serving as home to large concentrations of Jews, Mexicans, and Japanese Americans, as well as Russian Molokans, African Americans, and people of Armenian, Italian, and Chinese descent. Today the neighborhood is primarily Latino, and it continues to serve as a port-of-entry for a number of the city’s immigrant groups. The nearly 100-year old Jewish synagogue, El Rancho Boulevard Synagogue is also known as the Congregation Talmud Torah of Los Santos still sits on El Rancho Boulevard in El Burro Heights. Although it is currently not open, the building was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2001. This community was the heart of Jewish life during the starting in the 1920s but decades later the Jewish community moved northwest into Mirror Park. Much of the Jewish history in El Burro Heights has been preserved, but in 1994, the Los Santos City Council and the County Board of Supervisors changed the name of Brooklyn Avenue, previously the center of Jewish culture and life, to César Chávez Avenue. One of that last Jewish owned businesses in the area was RON gas station, a gas station at 2306 El Rancho Avenue. The Zellman family opened their gas station in 192, but they continued operating the gas station years after Jewish flight, serving the Hispanic community until 1999. The gangs in El Burro Heights identify with East Los Santos (East LOS / ELS) but the jurisdiction of East Los Santos is east of Indiana which is unincorporated Los Santos County policed by the Los Santos County Sheriff’s department, and El Burro Heights is in the City of Los Santos, policed by the Hollenbeck Department of the Los Santos Police Department (LSPD). Hillside 13 is a sureño (southern Mexican) street gang located in El Burro Heights, geographically placed in the eastern part of Los Santos. El Burro Heights is one of East Los Santos' oldest barrios (gangs), dating back to the early 1900s. Around that period of time, the neighborhood consisted mainly of working-class families with Italian and Irish descent, but as the migration of many Mexican immigrants happened a majority of the other ethnic groups such as the Jewish, Irish, and Italian population moved up northwest towards Mirro Park and West Vinewood. Many of the Hispanic population was working in local shops as well in the nearby industrial area. That came to a change as the Murrieta Oil Field was bought in 1921. Almost instantly, cheap Mexican laborers began to flood into the area, working in the oil fields in slave-like conditions, being used as cheap labor hand. As the new laborers began to settle down in the neighborhood of El Burro Heights, they were faced with severe racism by the locals, despising them for stealing their jobs and because of their cultural differences. This caused violence coming from both sides, forcing the Hispanic community to band together and protect each other from the racism and violence that was directed towards them. The gang was originally formed by young teens associated with the Catholic Church in the neighborhood. The gang was probably formed in 1921 when there was an influx of Mexican immigrants into El Burro Heights fleeing religious persecution in Mexico. Between 1926 and 1928, persecution in Mexico closed the churches and drove the priests into exile causing hundreds of families to settle in El Burro Heights, a predominately Jewish neighborhood at the time. The Mexican immigrants preserved their Catholic traditions and Father Cordero, one of the exiled Mexican priests, was named administrator of the Mission of Our Lady of Talpa. The first mass was celebrated on Ash Wednesday, 1927 and the first Baptism was recorded on October 27, 1928. It was the young boys of the families that attended this Catholic Church that formed the gang that would eventually become Hillside 13. The gang came into prominence during the Pachuca era of the 1940s and were one of the first gangs to develop rivalries with all the surrounding various, including Varrio Nuevo Estrada and El Hoyo Maravilla. During the 1950s, Hillside 13 members socialized at the Jewel Theatre on Whittier Blvd near Indiana Street but by the 1960s, the theatre was closed. Today, Hillside1 3 is one of the largest geographical gangs in the El Burro Heights and in 2019 the Los Santos City Attorney’s office filed a civil injunction against the gang, labeling it a nuisance. During the years to follow, the Hillside community has undergone a serious gentrification transition, with new buildings constructed, old buildings renovated and rents increasing. According to retired Sheriff deputy Richard Valdemar, “Hillside was one of the largest and most violent gangs in Los Santos when I was growing up during the 1950s and 1960s. They claim to be the first gang to carry out a drive-by shooting and are largely responsible for moving warfare from the fair fight to the urban terrorist mentality we see today.”

  9. By: Anthony BoyceDate: 14/12/2019 Brutal Control: A Brief History of the Mexican Mafia The Mexican Mafia, or La Eme, is at the top of a Hispanic organized crime hierarchy that includes both prison and street gangs in San Andreas. According to most accounts, La Eme was formed in 1957 by Luis "Huero Buff" Flores. At the time, Flores was incarcerated at the Deuel Vocational Institution (DVI) in Tracy, San Andreas. Flores and other founding members created La Eme as a both a "gang of gangs" and to protect Hispanics from other gangs within the San Andreas prison system. La Eme quickly grew in size and strength. In the 1960s, the San Andreas Department of Corrections moved Eme members to other prisons such as Bolingbroke, in an effort to break up the gang activity at DVI. This effort served to spread La Eme's influence to other prisons. As La Eme expanded, the group saw the potential for profiting from drug sales, gambling and extortion rackets inside prison, so leaders placed taxes on these activities, forcing Latino inmates to hand over a small percentage of profits to the gang. In the 1980s, La Eme took this approach to the street. By joining forces with East Los Santos street gang leaders, La Eme began to control activities like drug trafficking, extortion, contract killings, and debt collection from inside prison walls. As prisons became more racially divided, rival race-based criminal organizations sprang up in the San Andreas prison system, including the Black Guerilla Family and the Aryan Brotherhood. La Eme continued to thrive in the face of this opposition, and even grew more organized, drafting a set of gang rules or "commandments" and recruiting members from Latino street gangs in Southern San Andreas. The Mexican Mafia enjoyed unchecked power in San Andreas prisons and streets until the 1990s, when a concentrated effort of police raids and subsequent federal indictments were intended to put a wrench in the wheels of the gang's machine. In 1995, 22 people were charged under the federal Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations (RICO) Act with crimes including murder, extortion, and kidnapping. When these 22 people were arrested in May of that year, justice system officials thought they'd finally ended La Eme's reign of terror. Debra Wang, the United States Attorney for the Central District of San Andreas, said, "We have effectively crippled the gang and put it out of business." United States Attorney Nora M. Manella told the Los Santos Times, "This indictment and the arrests will significantly disable one of San Andreas' most violent gangs." History suggests the Mexican Mafia was not broken by these legal challenges. Although its power has diminished since the late 1990s, the group continues its criminal activities both in and outside of prisons all over San Andreas. To the jailers of California, the Mexican Mafia is known as the gang of gangs. Any member of a Latino street gang sent to prison or jail in San Andreas likely has to abide by the rules and dictates of the gang while in prison. Even to the point of making peace with their long-time hated rivals. “They have the ability to turn gangs that are historically sworn enemies that fight on the streets into allies when they come inside our jail system,” said Commander Joseph Dempsey of the Los Santos County Sheriff’s Department. Author and former Los Santos Times reporter Sam Quinones has chronicled the Mexican Mafia and associated Latino street gangs of San Andreas for two decades. Quinones says the gang’s power extended as its 30-year reputation for viciousness in the jail system won the allegiance of Latino street gangs throughout Southern San Andreas. “The Mexican Mafia’s influence and importance to Southern San Andreas goes far far beyond the prisons now,” Quinones told The Daily Beast. “I came to understand the Mexican Mafia was as important to many towns and communities as the mayor. They had an enormous effect in certain areas of Southern California, particularly the Latino barrios—an effect on the crime rate, the murder rate, and how drugs were sold.” Two federal indictments unsealed May 23 in Los Santos vividly affirm the immense power wielded by the gang of gangs in the jails and prisons of California. The court documents allege members of the Mexican Mafia divided up control of the drug trade in nearly every jail and prison in the state, imposing “taxes” and meting out violent discipline to inmates who didn’t follow the gang’s rules. One of the indictments goes as far as to characterize the gang’s activity as “an illegal government” inside what is the largest jail system in the country. What’s more, the indictments assert what cops and crooks in Los Santos have been saying for years, that the gang’s system of discipline and “taxation” extended far beyond the walls of the state’s prisons and into nearly every community in the Los Santos area where Latino street gangs were active. “Members of such gangs are expected to and are proud to, carry out the orders of the Mexican Mafia member in control of their neighborhood or custody facility because doing work for the Mexican Mafia increases the gang member’s status and reputation,” reads one of the unsealed indictments. A sense of the far-reaching criminal enterprise in Southern San Andreas was evident from the array of local police and federal agents who participated in last week’s announcement that federal racketeering charges were being brought against Mexican Mafia members and associates. LOS Santos– Special agents from the San Andreas Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation’s Office of Correctional Safety, in conjunction with federal and local authorities, have arrested 15 defendants named in a federal racketeering indictment that describes the development and implementation of a coalition of three criminal street gangs in the Northeast Los Santos area. The gangs were brought together under a truce ordered by a Mexican Mafia member for the purpose of controlling criminal activity in the neighborhoods where the trio of gangs operated. Unlike previous federal racketeering cases in this region that targeted long-established street gangs, the indictment that was returned yesterday by a federal grand jury outlines how Mexican Mafia member Arnold Gonzales created a criminal enterprise by unifying three gangs that had traditionally been rivals. According to the 27-count indictment, the “peace treaty” imposed by Arnold Gonzales brought together the Frogtown, Toonerville and Rascals gangs, which then worked “in concert to control the narcotics trafficking and other illicit activities committed in their territories,” which run along the Los Santos River from Mirror Park nearly to El Burro Heights. The indictment alleges a conspiracy to violate the Racketeer-Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) and accuses a total of 22 defendants of being “members and associates of a criminal organization engaged in, amongst other things, conspiracy to traffic in narcotics, narcotics trafficking, extortion, and crimes of violence, including conspiracy to commit murder, murder, attempted murder, and robbery.” “There is a path of lives ruined, and families devastated by the violence, extortion, and addictions that were created by this gang alliance,” said Bill Kunz, Special Agent in Charge, San Andreas Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Office of Correctional Safety. “So, those who join with the Mexican Mafia should be on notice: law enforcement is also banded together. We will track you down, and take you down.” Gonzales is listed as an unindicted co-conspirator. He is serving a sentence of life without the possibility of parole at Bolingbroke Penitentiary. He was convicted on September 7, 1982 of murder in the first degree, assault with the intent to murder, and burglary in the 2nd degree out of Los Santos County. Exploiting a power vacuum created by previous federal RICO cases targeting Northeast Los Santos gangs and the Mexican Mafia members who controlled them, Arnold Gonzales allegedly assumed control of the three street gangs in the fall of 2010. Because he was incarcerated in Bolingbroke Penitentiary after being convicted of murder, Arnold Gonzales anointed another Frogtown member – Jorge Grey, also known as “Bouncer” – to be his emissary on the streets, according to the indictment. Acting as the so-called shot caller, Grey convened a meeting of representatives of Northeast Los Santos gangs in September 2010. At this meeting, Grey informed the gang representatives that he was Arnold Gonzales’s “mouthpiece” and that he had orders to broker a truce among the rival gangs of Frogtown, Toonerville, and the Rascals so that they could work together to control illegal activities in the area on behalf of, and for the benefit of, Arnold Gonzales. The investigation showed that nearly two years after its formation, the criminal organization had achieved its goal of unifying the three longstanding rival gangs into a single criminal enterprise. Less than two years after Arnold Gonzales imposed the truce on the gangs, one of the Toonerville shot callers, Manuel Vallejo, was talking about the “United Nations,” “New World Order” and “United Neighborhoods,” which he said was the “game plan.” Just a few months ago, Vallejo was boasting about the execution of that “game plan,” noting that he was part of something that had ended more than 50 years of fighting between Frogtown, Toonerville, and the Rascals. “For the past two decades, federal authorities have been fighting the influence of the Mexican Mafia both inside prison facilities and on the streets of Southern San Andreas,” said Assistant United States Attorney Robert Dugdale, Chief of the office’s Criminal Division. “We sought to ensure that being a shot caller in such a gang is a job whose only reward will be many, many years in federal custody. The indictment announced today is the latest salvo in this battle, and we will continue our crackdown on criminal organizations like the Mexican Mafia and street gangs that do its bidding as long as they threaten our communities.” The RICO indictment targeting the Arnold Gonzales Organization is the result of Operation “Gig ‘em,” which was a 2½-year investigation conducted by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, Violent Crime Impact Team; the San Andreas Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Office of Correctional Safety, Special Service Unit; the Glendale Police Department; and the Los Angeles Police Department. Glendale Police Chief Rob Castro stated, “The Glendale Police Department recognizes that gang crimes have no borders and the City of Glendale is not immune to the impact of gang violence. Our participation in a multi-jurisdictional operation such as this ensures the safety of our community.” This morning, authorities arrested 14 of the defendants named in the RICO indictment. Four other defendants were already in custody, and law enforcement continues to search for three defendants, including Grey. (Two other individuals named in separate one-defendant, one-count drug trafficking indictments were also arrested this morning.) Members of the organization also implemented plans to expand operations into the greater Lancaster, San Andreas area, where they hoped to engage in drug trafficking and collect “taxes” on behalf of, and for the benefit, of Arnold Gonzales. As part of the scheme, several participants in the enterprise allegedly deposited money into Arnold Gonzales’s prison account, with one individual depositing over $133,000 on her own over the course of the 2-year investigation. The money was closely tracked by investigators. The indictment alleges that Grey and other members of the enterprise engaged in narcotics and weapons transactions at Homeboy Industries, and one defendant allegedly planned to use Homeboy Industries as an “alibi” if he was accused of associating with other gang members in violation of a gang injunction. In addition to the RICO charge in the indictment, various defendants are charged with narcotics and weapons offenses, including, in one instance, the possession of a machinegun. An indictment contains allegations that a defendant has committed a crime. Every defendant is presumed to be innocent until proven guilty in court. If they are convicted of charges contained in the indictment, all of the defendants would face potential sentences of decades in federal prison. Brutal Control: The Mexican Mafia's involvement in the hit of Vicente 'Chucky' Gutierrez, Ghetto Boyz OG. August 3rd, 2019. Gonzalo Suriel, a validated Emero, one of the most infamous Mexican Mafia hitmen, and the prime suspect of the case, leaves his house at 2PM, after dialing up Spider, a Camarada at the time, asking him to bring, quote on quote, "We've got something to talk about. Swing by Davis", little did he know that they were about to perform a hit for one the Emeros on the inside, Rudy Correra a/k/a Panic, one of the key figures of the gang Ghetto Boyz 27st, a member that has been affiliated to the Mexican Mafia and his gang for about fifty years now, and is also known as the "Godfather" of the Ghetto Boyz. Chato and Spider were ordered to do a hit on Chucky since he stole drugs from Panic, and was not paying his taxes to the Mexican Mafia. 3PM, the meeting has been arranged and Chucky is told that it'll be a Sunday barbecue, and he'll have to attend serious business. Vicente arrives to the scene and gets introduced to Spider and Chato, both known to be operating with all of the Southern Mexican gangs around South and East Los Santos. Forty or so minutes pass, and multiple shots are heard, Chucky has been brutally beaten, stabbed, and shot, his body left in the canals North West of Davis, leaving a bloody trail behind. Police say that he has been stabbed twenty-seven times in the stomach, four times in the neck, and he had two bullet holes in his forehead. Chato and Spider were last seen at the Davis Gas Station before disappearing for two months, multiple other hits were ordered by Joey "Puppet" Pousa, Chato's sponsor and mentor, that being the explosion at Vespucci, as the Gravedwellers had an ongoing conflict with the Mexican Mafia, alongside the Jamestown shootings, that involved the killings of two children and multiple Jamestown gang affiliates. Chato was caught in a trap house around East Los Santos. He was charged for the murder of Vicente 'Chucky' Gutierrez, and he's now serving a sentence to life with no chance of parole. Brutal Control: The current state of the Mexican Mafia. Los Santos has always been the 'crown jewel' of La Eme and it's street operations with the organization having a stranglehold on much of the city's Hispanic street gangs. This is a list that has grown to include some of the largest gangs in the entire state. Criminal operations within the city have largely been coordinated through a tight-knit core of seasoned 'Camaradas' that collects taxes and enforces its whims throughout East Los Santos. Most recently at the top of this structure was prominent gangland figure Rene 'Bosko' Blajos whose reputation for cunning and extreme brutality earned him enormous respect within the Mexican Mafia. Bosko, throughout a two year period, worked virtually unopposed to step up in the leadership and establish a vast criminal enterprise that earned millions from drug trafficking alone. This brief empire was brought to an untimely end with an enormous city-wide law enforcement operation dubbed "Open Casket" that saw La Eme's street presence evaporate overnight with a series of indictments. Law Enforcement officials speculate that with the fall of Blajos' organization a serious power vacuum has formed between the survivors as well as a newer generation that seeks their place in the limelight and who are increasingly unscrupulous with how they attain it. They're known to have been involved in the Jamestown hits, alongside the explosion in Vespucci.
