Body Found Outside Private Prestige Event: LS Dems Extortion Attempt Fails! 2/5/2024 Delia Celeste Urbana-Champaign CHUMASH - The body of an as-yet unidentified African-American teenager was found outside the exclusive Pacific Bluffs Resort on Saturday the 27th of January during an private event held by top fashion house Prestige. The media was notified by an email from an identified individual who was later revealed and implicated in an extortion attempt on the Los Santos Democratic Party, apparently misidentifying the event as one from the Los Santos Democratic Party. (Pacific Bluffs Resort & Spa) The email from the failed extortionist accuses those inside the resort of neglecting the body with videos showing two men seemingly exiting the Resort meeting, stepping over the body, and driving over it as they left. LSN's investigation revealed that the men were unaffiliated with Prestige, attempted to and failed to gain entry into the secure premises, and are currently unidentified at this time. An anonymous source from inside the event revealed to LSN that event-goers were engaged in the event, unaware of the body, and by the time they exited the body had been taken by the Los Santos Coroner's Office and the scene was clear of any Law Enforcement Officers which left many attendees unaware of it happening until after the fact. LSN as well as other media and police agencies received the following email at 5:00 AM this morning on the 5th of February, 2024: Note: Out of respect for the privacy of the deceased and to prevent interference with any ongoing investigations by Law Enforcement Agencies and their Cyber Crimes unit, the email address of the would-be extortionist as well as the videos will not be released by LSN at this time. Email from the would-be extortionist: This lead LSN to follow the trail back to it's source with this extortion email sent to State Senators Seth Andrews, Isabel Aguirre, and Diana Jones. The extortionist claims to know the various secrets of the email recipients, however given the fact that they critically misidentified the targets of this extortion, their claim remains dubious at best. Further, the email reveals the extortion attempt was for a mere $25,000 dollars in a quote... "empty plastic mayo jar" possibly suggesting that the extortionist was either unexperienced or experiencing acute financial hardship. Email originally sent to Senators: The Los Santos Democratic Party Chairman, Nikos Karagiorgis, on receipt of the email created a Crime Report with the LSPD, released a statement denouncing the extortion attempt and extended sympathies on behalf of the party to the family of the young boy cut down before his time. Los Santos Democratic Party Statement on the Extortion Attempt & Fatality: The full statement including images sent by the would-be extortionist has been released on Face Browser. LSN has received no updates from Law Enforcement Agencies on the investigation into the murder or the fatality, but given the public attention towards both, it is reasonable to suggest it is currently under investigation by agencies tasked with investigating Cyber Crimes in addition to homicide investigators. LSN will update this article as the situation develops and extends our own condolences to the family of the deceased at this time. >Comments are enabled!

Northside Criminal Syndicate ORGANIZED CRIME GROUP The Northside Criminal Syndicate; sometimes referred to as Northside Guerrillas Syndicate due to their feuds with larger groups in the past as the remainder of SCC. Engages mainly in money laundering, racketeering, arms dealing, and rarely drug solicitation but slowly becoming more prominent as their financial options limit and increase of demands; but still engage in crime primarily in crimes that have them stay off the radar. Their structure is quite ambiguous however they appear to work as one big syndicate with semi autonomous street crews, and legal businesses operating as one big syndicate as suggested by the name. However it does remain clear they prefer to stay off the eyes of the law and not belong to the subject of a Continuing Criminal Enterprise under section 848 of Chapter 13, Subchapter I, Part D. Many crews inside of the Northside Criminal Syndicate have different agendas, and activities suggesting independence within the Syndicate but still operating together since the Syndicate itself does not really focus on one specific activity but rather multiple in form of different Street Crews; they operate however they like, and legitimate businesses it is clear that this group believes in the concept of teamwork, and working together as a force using different tactics rather than only one task which makes them too easy to identify to law enforcement. The Northside Criminal Syndicate is a break off group of the Southside Connection which even started off as a crew in the Southside Connection after the disappearance, death, or deportation of a lot of high ranks within the Southside Connection causing the remaining members to be pushed out the Southside due to the sheer competitivity within the area hence they began operations in the Northside in areas such as Mirror Park where they can finally operate without much commotions. It is clear the group has an active leadership but, hierarchy is not necessarily important but rather here to ensure stability within the Syndicate and also how they will plan to keep the Syndicate running. Many financial hotspots for laundering appear to be active within the Syndicate masking their criminality by posing as just a self-organized Syndicate with legal businesses which assists them in their endeavours to remain appealing to the eyes of the law along with their association to top businessmen, and criminal masterminds in Los Santos whom assists them in their agendas. History Fall of Southside Connection It all started ever since the Southside Connection had been led to its downfall from the death of numerous members, the stagnation of an actual high rank within the group hence causing it to fall to its death with the death of a certain member being the final blow and the long incarceration of many more which caused other groups to take the opportunity and push the group out due to the weakening of the group as they flee from the Southside into the Northside due to the remaining connections North Los Santos. Areas such as Mirror Park became the new base of the remnants of the Southside Connection. After many tries to revive the group unfortunately there was failure as the members decided to go their own ways with the exception of a few who dedicated themselves to forming a completely new organization which is a tribute to the group leaving the disbandment of the organization. Formation of the Northside Criminal Syndicate With the switching of many names such as Kingston Connection, and then to Northside Guerrillas temporarily after being a small group fending for themselves with the final name of Northside Criminal Syndicate finally being proposed due to them making a base in places such as Mirror Park unironically located in North Los Santos. The founders; Benjamin Hughes, Joao Jesus, Andrew Bones, Joshua Johnson, Tory Johnson along with other veterans of the Southside Criminal Connection proposed to create an active group in charge of leadership due to believing that a centralized group would survive more efficiently in the criminal underworld rather than letting people go loose and leave the group to go stagnant with people only here to work for themselves rather than benefiting as a group together. Many qualities such as loyalty, family, respect, and discretion is maintained in the faction believing this to be the path to success as they constantly teach those ideas onto their members as they attempt to be a successful tight syndicate concluding an organization is nothing without any qualities, or regulations. Many meetings were withheld between members on how they will make plans to rise up as a new crew they were focused on finding solutions rather than expanding what this disaster needed was problem solvers who would make sure they can be able sort out affairs and rise up from the bottom they all started off by finding potential connections that can be able to help them with assets such as supplies, businesses hence they established relations with a lot of criminal masterminds, and entrepreneurs alike which especially contributed to the gradual rebuilding of the Syndicate due to them staying in contact in people with a significant amount of power as they go around claiming territories within North Los Santos to continue operations which worked especially considering how there was not as much competition in North Los Santos compared to South Los Santos hence they took this to their advantage began basing themselves off North Los Santos rather than the Southside due to that now being an entity of the past as influence in the Southside has been lost. The Northern Rise After the formation of the Northside Criminal Syndicate rapid expansion has been initiated with the building of relationships with many businesses, criminal groups, and suppliers it appears the Northside Criminal Syndicate holds a positive future as they furthermore use this to their advantage to grow as a syndicate with the building of many connections which is what an organization truly needs. Massive recruitment schemes had been made after the formation of the Syndicate which even allowed a lot of street crews, businesses to form under the Syndicate hence manpower increasing rapidly, and gradually as they begin to take control of different businesses to launder most of that having members of the Syndicate become business owners themselves allowing them profit to be brought in more legal terms as many businesses come under the sphere of the NCS. Some members even began getting into the drug trade as they attempt to find more ways to make more cash with a purpose of bringing in cash to the Syndicate to furthermore invest, and thrive with a lot of covert, skilled operations however not actively engaging in the drug trade as one big group but rather some semi autonomous street crews part of the Syndicate which appear to be taking part in these sorts of operations hence it was hard for Law Enforcement to actually identify the Syndicate being behind this and only just a crew being involved in those type of frontline activities hence becoming a force to be reckoned with at last, rising from the ashes of their Southside counterparts with yet more to come for it’s bright future. They carry on their agenda of building up relationships with new allies, businesses, along with finding businesses to take over in order to help them in their pursuits of rising to the top of the chain once more as they proceed to pursuit certain goals rebuild back up once again to the former glory of the Southside Connection, Make profit, and live life as one big organization helping one another to succeed to the top hence they value a sense of loyalty within the Northside Criminal Syndicate using this to recruit more people to their cause and having those people furthermore expand in the name of the Northside Criminal Syndicate convincing them that profit shall be accomplished if they agree to join the Northside Crime Syndicate with endeavours often going quite smoothly as many people agree to join and many crews form under the Syndicate allowing it to become more notorious each time they proceed to their activities of reaching their agenda. Affiliates Khyree Barnes **DECEASED** — One of the known higher ranks within the Southside Connection, said to be involved in laundering at Cassie's Diner but operations around Cassie's Diner has long gone stagnant after the sudden assassination of Khyree Barnes identified as one of higher ranks of SCC along with being an the original cell leader of what formed the NCS during his autopsy. Benjamin Hughes — Whilst there are no current active criminal records on Benjamin due to his covert criminal operations. There is still a suspicion of him being affiliated with active Jamaican Posses within New York, and Jamaica and said to be in close contact, and relations with the Posses helping his operations as a criminal. Allegedly the founder of the Northside Criminal Syndicate since the death, or deportation of numerous higher ranks within the SCC. Joao Jesus — Suspicion of the solicitation of drugs and arms dealing. Said to be a known party boy often going clubs ambiguous of what his intentions are CCTV however has shown him being in constant presence of Benjamin Hughes, and well known criminals within the criminal underworld of Los Santos, said to be one of the higher ranks within SCC. Tory Johnson — Suspicion of the solicitation of drugs and extortion history shows him to be affiliated with various street gangs due to being in constant presence of known members of unidentified crip sets. A close friend of Benjamin Hughes, it is also alleged that he may be a right hand man of Benjamin Hughes. Andrew Bones — Suspicion of Arms dealing. Not much is known about his activities but is said to be involved in the business of arms dealing and leading a crew of his own under the SCC before it’s fall which could only be assumed that he is also a higher rank within the Northside Syndicate. Joshua Johnson — Suspicion of solicitation of drugs, Arms dealing. Said to be one of the leaders of a street crew within the NCS along with being one of founders of the Northside Criminal Syndicate. He was also said to be a veteran of the old Southside Connection making it clear that he is one of the high rankings of the Northside Criminal Syndicate. Scott Popwell — One of the veterans of the Southside Connection along with being another member of the leadership of the group as well as one of the founders. It appears it is also identified that he may be one of the leaders of a certain street crew within the Syndicate. Rashon Brown — Also one of the veteran members of the Southside Connection who contributed to the forming of the Northside Criminal Syndicate. OUT OF CHARACTER This faction aims to portray an entirely fictional organized criminal syndicate with street crews, and legitimate businesses operating under its sphere hence making it a wide connection of various different activities. The current faction leaders aim to tribute the Southside Connection under a more centralized break off group with an actual leadership but still allowing versatility, and a sense of independence and old traditions of the mother organization as we allow the semi-autonomous crews, umbrella crews to decide how they operate and how they will contribute to building up the Syndicate as one big organization. This entire faction’s concept has been made of events that have happened ICly meaning IC events are what caused a build up to the forming of the faction meaning it is completely fictional and only based on things that have happened IC as development is what caused the forming of the faction hence we also prioritize character development in the first place due to that was what have made us in the first place meaning we value the growth of our people, and how they progress as a member of the Northside Criminal Syndicate. We will also make sure teach things Icly and how can we able to help your character out progress since character development is indeed promised when joining. All members must join, progress, and rise up in the Syndicate through IC methods. We are more than happy to help you on how to join the faction if you wish to tag along with us on our journeys the more the merrier after all. We value character development as a whole in the faction and allow individuality within the group hence why we are versatile and even allow members to possibly start their own semi-autonomous crew within the Northside Criminal Syndicate, or allow them to roleplay however they wish to portray themselves. This may not be the faction for you if you wish to get into consistent shootouts, or commit excessive crimes to the point it'll bring us too much attention we first value build ups of character before we can put you down to the heavy duty work we also value the well being of your character hence why we always prefer to play our cards smart instead of going outright aggressive. We don't mind action there, and there but we do not recommend too much action since we do value roleplay and the development of our members rather than them outright going jail, or getting murdered etc that doesn't mean we will limit your individuality as a criminal but we will advise you to be discreet whenever on the act, we often teach things Icly in order to allow you to progress as a character then leave you and your crews to figure out their own ways of how they will grow as a team, and then contribute to the Northside Criminal Syndicate. It is clear that everyone represents the faction in whatever way they can. Thus, we've developed an extremely simple aptitude test that checks for these skills: Reaction time (reading and typing). Comprehensive capacity. Grammatical proficiency. Efficiency (capacity to perform intended tasks). The aptitude test is entirely in game, and symbolized through in character emotes. We have a Discord for those who are interested in joining and roleplaying with us to build yourself up as a member of the main ranks of the Syndicate, perhaps your own crew? Associate, perhaps a business partner? No worries, look no forward, come along and join this Discord if you express interest in interacting with us we’ll find a way Icly however, we will not OOCLY recruit. https://discord.gg/NuvPDJ26Wh

The thread will follow Michael's development. Michael is a young Italian-American in his mid 20's and he was born in Los Santos. His father died when he was in early teens, his mother was sick and she could not work. So, as every good kid, he started working to survive with his mother. She would tear up every time he'd bring money home. He felt happy to be able to help his mother, two years later, his mom passed away and he was left alone. He felt very sad for the few weeks but he could not change the fact that they died. He's living alone and he is working different types of jobs to earn money.
