Antonio "Diablo" DeLaGarza was born in Culiacán, Sinaloa in 1980. His relatives were from different parts of the Sinaloa state including the Badiraguato region also known as the "Mexican Sicily". Some of the most notorious druglords from Mexico are from that area. Diablo grew up around the "Narcocultura" or "Narco-Culture" and eventually joined a criminal cell from the town of Cosalá. According to Jesús Campos (one of his former cellmates), the nickname of "El Diablo" or "The Devil" comes from his grandmother who called him like that when he started to grow a moustache and his looks resembled the "Lotería" (Mexican Bingo) "El Diablo" or "El Diablito" card. When he was twenty years old, Antonio was arrested while doing his first contraband run into the United States. He drove a car through the Nogales, Arizona port of entry with one kilogram of heroin and five kilograms of pure cocaine stashed into his vehicle's trunk. Antonio served part of his sentence at the Federal Correctional Institution, Phoenix (FCI Phoenix) where he "cliqued up" and became affiliated to the Border Brothers prison gang. During the first years of serving his sentence, DeLaGarza constantly got into fist fights and brawls with rival prison gangs which earned him the reputation of a violent inmate amongst the general population but also gave him extra years. DeLaGarza was also suspected of taking part in the stabbing and murdering of another inmate but due to the lack of witnesses and any other form of evidence the investigation couldn't proceed. As time went by and his notoriety grew, DeLaGarza acquired a leading position within the Border Brothers prison gang. With this, Antonio started to run his own "hustles" such as gambling and drug smuggling activities into the facility but he was caught and sent to the USP Tucson (a high-security United States federal prison for male inmates in Arizona) where he served the rest of his sentence. While being in Tucson, DeLaGarza built strong business relationships with other high profile gang members from different prison gangs with whom he organized narcotics and weapons deals that took place on the streets of Phoenix, Arizona with the use of smuggled cellphones, guards corruption and his wife's assistance. But Diablo always planned on building an even bigger operation at the time of his release by taking advantage of his family ties to the infamous Sinaloa Cartel and the border-wide structure of the 22 gang. After his release, DeLaGarza continued with his ambitious goals and expanded his operations into the state of San Andreas on behalf of his father in law by creating an alliance with a notorious Mexican Mafia crew from Los Santos through contacts in common from Phoenix and Sinaloa. Antonio's wife, Estrella Mondragón, met Antonio when she was seventeen years old and Antonio nineteen. A year later, Estrella and Antonio got married but Diablo was also arrested during that year. Diablo's daughter, Erandi, had already been born and Estrella decided to study Accounting at the UAS (Universidad Autónoma de Sinaloa) in order to aid on her father's fiscal declarations being that he was part of a Sinaloa Cartel cell. Estrella perfected her skills at money laundering as Antonio became affiliated to a prison gang known as the Border Brothers 22. Eventually, Estrella got herself a business VISA and visited Antonio constantly while he "did his time" in the Arizona federal prison system and also created money laundering operations on U.S. soil. DeLaGarza prohibited Estrella to take Erandi with her to the visits due to fear of any sort of retaliation against him as he was starting to become a "shotcaller" for the gang, so Diablo mostly knew his daughter through family photographs. Estrella began to help Antonio with the deals he organized from "the inside" with the help of her father, who also grew up in rank within the cartel. The DeLaGarzas were profiting, when Erandi was fifteen Antonio instructed his father in law to buy her a 2009 Hummer H2 that was in mint condition. Campos says that Diablo found the vehicle while browsing on the internet through a smuggled phone and negotiated its price from his cell. Some say that Erandi's name was written with diamonds on the dashboard for the car to become a collectors' item. Being an only child, "Erandita", as Diablo is used to call her, was given expensive gifts on the regular since Antonio tried to compensate for being an absent parent but the situation got very bad for Erandi when her mother Estrella got arrested in Mexico for driving with an unregistered weapon and with one million U.S. dollars and three million Mexican pesos that she was delivering from Mexicali to Culiacán. With contacts, money and corruption, Estrella was released after serving only four years in a Mexican state prison but by this time Erandi had followed on her footsteps and graduated from the Tecnológico de Monterrey private university, Culiacán campus with the same career as hers since she also fell in love with a criminal. Jairo was a young and prominent CDS operative and a member of "Los Ninis", a narco-cell from Culiacán under "Los Chapitos". The new boyfriend paid for Erandi's bills including college but he mysteriously disappeared a few months later after Erandi's graduation party in what seemed to be a quiet execution from a rival cartel. Devastated, Erandi fell into depression and gambled a lot of her parents money in a rebellious act against her mother eventually leading into a strong fight and a break up. Due to this, Erandi decided to visit her father in Los Santos, San Andreas as soon as she heard he was in town. When Antonio notified Estrella about this to ease her worrying, she also flew to L.S. After reuniting and living together on the same apartment for a few months, the family slowly began to act normal again and the relationships between Estrella, Antonio and Erandi got stronger. Soon enough, the DeLaGarza's would begin to operate as a whole clan once more but this time more carefully, or so they thought.

After eight years at the Phoenix Federal Correctional Facility, the Mexican-American Alonzo Montoya had to sit down and fight for eight years. No one went to visit him, and there was no money to put on his books. He was locked up inside by himself. Alonzo was born in New Mexico, USA. Later, his family moved to Las Vegas to start their new path. During the former President's immigration rules and policies at that time, US citizenship was issued to Alonzo by the government it doesn't matter if your parents weren't they're citizens, if you were born there you get citizenship. He lived in the states until he turned 14, he moved back to Tijuana, Mexico. He got into a school not so long after he quit to get his GED instead. He thought it was the fastest way to finish high school, and it was. After he obtained his GED, he started working in his uncle's trucking company. His uncle gave him that opportunity since Alonzo proved his point of growing up, he wanted to live as an adult. One of Alonzo's uncle's workers introduced him to his son, Kevin Salamanca. Kevin also grew up in the states. He once kicked with a crew related to gangs and illegal activities there. Their friend relation started getting better and became close to each other. Kevin had Alonzo involved with the so-called activities and got him deeper into the business of what Kevin and his father were doing in his uncle's trucking company. He had him smuggle narcotics to the states, taught him how to make cash, and everything with him since they both were citizenship the job they got was best for them. Things were good until they failed a delivery and got arrested in Phoenix, which led them to face federal charges. In late 2019, Alonzo Montoya was released from the Arizona federal prison. After serving years at the FCI Phoenix, he established ties with the Border Brothers and later became a member of them. A direct order came from one of the drug kingpins that Alonzo was serving time with told him and his associates to make contacts with some people in San Andreas to expand business. He then later on moved to San Andreas with other associates after their release. Due to his good behavior and good reputation among the guards, his sentence was reduced from eight years to ten years. "And that is how Alonzo ended up in Arizona."

Fernando Garcia was raised up in a poor family, in the southern part of Aguascalientes, Mexico. Garcia grew up around a violent environment, where all the kids did anything for money, from stealing, to selling drugs, to even killing at the ages of twelve to thirteen, which led to him getting involved in the narcotics business. He started to sell drugs until his parents found out about the schemes he has been involved in. When he turned sixteen his father forced him into enlisting into the army, lying about his age, as his looks didn't match his age. Back then joining the army, or even the police was a death sentence due to the corruption that had its tentacles wrapped around the government. Mexico was controlled by all the drug lords, and most of the guys who tried to fight for the 'liberation' of their country usually died at the age of twenty. When Fernando was nineteen he enlisted for the Military Police where he served for ten more years to come, he took advantage from the whole situation and abused most of his power. Because of the low income of money coming his way, he decided to cross the border, almost brainwashed with the whole American Dream mindset.

Story of Luna Mauricio Luna, or just commonly known as Luna (meaning 'moon' in Spanish) is a Mexican male in his late twenties/early thirties. An ex-military from Mexico finds himself in San Andreas to find a better life, or as everyone calls it 'chase the American dream". As regular jobs were not cutting it for him, hungry for money Luna ends up associating himself with people who make their living by committing home invasions. In a matter of weeks, Luna finds himself breaking into one of the houses with his new crew. The home burglary takes an unexpected turn and everything goes sour. Luna and his associates are arrested and charged with burglary, however, Mauricio only gets a minor 8-month sentence, as he had zero criminal record in the past. Inside the joint, Luna being a Mexican national meant that he'd have to program with the 'paisa' car. He found himself integrated within the paisa community inside and found many men from similar backgrounds to him inside, whether they were drug mules for cartels, illegal immigrants waiting deportation and so forth. Time went on and Mauricio had began to build a relationship with an infamous group within the paisa car, known as 'Border Brothers'. They were a group of Mexican nationals, who gangbanged on the outside and had very close ties to cartels back in México. Luna was hungry, that's the whole reason he found himself inside the system. This was a great opportunity for him, he was taught hustles on the outside by other criminals, and eventually obtained contacts on the outside world to continue his journey into becoming a career criminal. As Luna was about to finish his sentence and leave the prison, a keyholder of the 'Border Brothers' gang approached and slipped a note to him. He said 'When you're outside and ready to put in the work, go see this person, he will take care of you'. The note said 'Motel, Sandy Shores' and underneath it "El Araña'. Without too much thought, Luna, after finishing his sentence decided to follow his intuition and find this person who would help him get back on his feet in the outside world. This thread will follow the story of Mauricio Luna and his development as a member of 'Border Brothers'

The purpose of this thread is to follow Martín Cano's development. Martín Cano was born in Baja California, and raised in Los Santos, San Andreas. His Father an immigrant from Michoacán, and his mother a border child, from Baja California/San Diego. Martín grew up a subject of poverty, along with many other Hispanics within the city, if not the majority. Times were different back then though, being born in the 1980s, you can imagine the atmosphere was completely different to it is now. Martín grew up throughout the 80s and 90s, when gang culture was at it's peak. He got involved with a group of 'paisa' folk, who were from the same background as him. The group would go on to commit petty crime, such as petty theft, low level drug dealing and so forth. Time went on and Martín's father was soon deported back to Mexico after being discovered by immigration, working in the states without legitimate papers nor a greencard. This left a huge impact on Martín's family, now the main source of income had gone. Martín's mother was forced to struggle to keep herself and children alive, she worked many jobs, someone had to put food on the table. Years went by and Martín grew older, he found himself falling and unable to get himself back up in the world of crime. Deeper and deeper, but it's alright, surely he'll be able to get himself fixed up and straightened out before it's too late, right? Who knows. His mother knew that wasn't true, she tried to move out of the state to Texas in order to get herself and her children away from the city disease of gang violence and whatnot. It went well, it was a clean slate, until Martín eventually fell into similar circumstances, however this time in Texas. After spending a while in Texas, Martín returned to Mexico and found himself travelling from town to town. After becoming involved with a biker gang, he eventually became a patched in member after an estimated 7 months of being associated with them, and undergoing his prospect phase. Years went on, and Martín eventually became a nomad. It was then, when Martín decided to return to the states, back to Texas. Martín was soon arrested and charged for possession of an illicit substance and served within a level two state prison. Level two's aren't quite the same as level threes and level fours. Things pop off all the time, people seem more aggressive and easily provoked. This is mainly due to the fact that lower level prisons usually have a less organized system inside as to higher levels, where organizations such as The Mexican Mafia, Nuestra Familia, Aryan Brotherhood, Black Guerrilla Families and so forth operate at a much tighter and constructed level. During Martín's time incarcerated in the state of Texas, he soon became associated with the infamous 'BORDER BROTHERS' organization, an organization which operates both in the USA and in some parts of Mexico. Border Brothers was founded in Tijuana during the 1980s and soon grew greater into the United States, infiltrating prisons in California, Arizona and Texas, along with other neighbouring areas. Time went on, and Martín became an official member of the group. He would soon find himself working his way to a position of power, until he became keyholder on the mainline. Martín was released from incarceration in early 2020, and upon his release, he was tasked with travelling to San Andreas with intentions to support the small number of paisas attempting to create a movement within the state. Martín was met by Antonio De La Garza, a long time friend who had also served time with Martín. Now, it's all in writing, who knows where this story will end.
