  1. Florencia 13 The Florencia 13, South Side Florencia 13 or Florence Gang is an American criminal street gang based in Los Angeles, California, composed mainly of Mexican-Americans. The gang is named after the Florence area of Los Angeles County, controlled by the Mexican Mafia.They are involved in drug smuggling, murder, assault and robbery. History The FBI began targeting Florencia 13 gang members for their roles in racially motivated attacks on African-Americans. Court testimony and the judges ruling found that F13 members had targeted African-Americans based purely on race. At certain times, Florencia 13 leaders ordered killings of the East Coast Crip gang, according to Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca.The conflict was triggered by the theft by East Coast Crips of a large amount of drugs from Florencia 13 members. This resulted in the Mexican Mafia putting a “green light” out on the East Coast Crips. On January 13, 2019, two people were shot and wounded outside the Fashion Place Mall in Salt Lake City, Utah, after an argument erupted between Florencia 13 and Norteños members. Two male Florencia members, aged 19 and 20, were arrested for involvement in the incident. The two suspects were also charged for a shooting at a group of people at a Taylorsville, Utah cemetery on January 6, which did not harm anyone. On October 6, 2019, four men, ages 20s to 50s, were killed and five injured at KC Tequila, a Hispanic-themed bar and restaurant in Kansas City, Kansas. It was among the most deadliest acts of violence in modern Kansas history. The suspects were alleged members of Florencia 13, and are facing murder and attempted murder charges. Appearances Many members of Florencia 13 covers their bodies with tattoos. Common signs include "F-13", "Florencia 13", the name of their gang and other symbols. A December 2007 article on CNN's Internet blog stated that the gang had decided to remove the tattoos so that they would be able to commit crimes without being noticed. Location Police reports have suggested that their reach has even been seen in The original cliques are in south Los Angeles, but like many gangs, members are beginning to migrate to various other cities and states across the country. Florencia 13 still maintains a stronghold in their original territory despite repeated attempts from law enforcement to break the gang. Florencia 13 claims Brouge Ave from Davis. Criminal activity In May 2016, one gang member named Carlos Garcia, seventeen years old, was sentenced to 210 months in prison after pleading guilty to multiple charges, including ilegal fireworks traffic, attempted murder, illegal carrying of a weapon. In October 2016, Ricardo Lopez was sentenced to 15 years and 10 months, respectively after pleading guilty to racketeering and drug charges. On July 10, 2017, Rene Ramirez shot to death Michael Joshua outside his residence when he confronted them about littering in front of his home, based on police reports. Rene has been arrested in a short time after the murder have been committed.

  3. Edwin "Trouble" Barajas was born on January 22nd, 1985 at the Central Los Santos Medical Center. Growing up, Edwin was met with serious complications as his parents were never there for him emotionally and his environment spoke for itself. The territory that marked his housing complex was ran by the Infamous Florencia Trece 76ST Malos Clique. He was there to witness the large spree of Murders during the mid 1990's where murder, drug trafficking, and gang activity was rampant in the surrounding County's of Los Santos. It didn't take long for Edwin to adopt to the gang culture and as young as fifteen to be put on as member of the Florencia Trece Malos Clique. Upon becoming a member of the gang, a few months later a trap house was broken into allegedly by the East Coast Crips and word came from upstate that this is war. Edwin became the frontline soldier within the war and as the years pass, both sides took huge loses. Edwin was arrested in 2008 for Racketeering, Production of cocaine, Possession of cocaine for the purpose of trafficking, as well as three counts of Firearm possession for the purpose of trafficking. Edwin was sent to Twin Towers Correctional Facility for twelve years. After twelve years of programming, entering the SHU program as well as doing his time, he was released on June 25th, 2020.
  4. FLORENCIA 13 MALDITOS Like most Hispanic gangs, Florencia 13 can trace their history back to the 1940s following the first wave of Mexican immigrants, many of whom came to work on the San Pedro-Long Beach railroads as well as the aftermath of the Zoot Suit riots. Adopting “Florence” by the Paragons as a rallying cry, the early 1950s Florencia gang members were involved in petty crime and street fighting and often had issues with local Afircan-American groups and gangs. Modern day Florencia is a far cry from this, with aggressive gang-banging catapulting the gang to be one of the largest in LA. Sureños Movement (1967-) The Mexican Mafia (or la Eme) is at the top of Latino organised crime hierarchy in prison and in the streets in southern California and San Andreas. Formed in 1957 by Luis Flores and other members as a “gang of gangs” and as a means of protecting Hispanics from other prison gangs within the Californian prison system. By the 1960s, the Department of Corrections attempted to split up the gang, spreading it across the state. Florencia 13 and the Mexican Mafia (or La Eme) are irremovable. Top Florencia leaders joined the ranks of the Mexican Mafia upon its formation and sealed their allegiance through the adoption of “13” to the end of their name. Florencia 13 became, and remains so, the Mexican Mafia’s attack dog. Crack Era (1980s, 1990s) The rise of crack cocaine in the late 1980s fundamentally changed gang-banging. Drug-dealing became the major source of profit for most Los Santos gangs, and families devastated by drugs readily produced potential gang-members. The production and sale of crack cocaine became a major focus of Florencia 13 and played an important role in the gang’s rapid expansion ad absorbing and destroying several smaller Hispanic gangs in the area. The gang's taking advantage of the rapidly changing demographics of the area to populate numerous cliques, including Malditos. Malditos 13 (1981-1991) Malditos 13, formed in the early 1980s, was a Sureño small gang based in Brouge Avenue, Davis. The gang was heavily involved in the crack cocaine epidemic of the 1980s, focusing heavily on the sale of crack cocaine, marijuana and PCP. Following an altercation over a girlfriend during a house party on Jamestown street, Malditos and 76 East Coast Crip affiliates in 1989 got into a brawl, resulting in shots being exchanged. Martin ‘Sadboy’ Ayala (1970-1989) was killed in the exchange, resulting in a feud forming. Under colossal pressure from Crip members, Malditos voluntarily cliqued up with Florencia in 1991, following two years of one-sided bloody warfare. Race-based Violence (2000s) While views on the origin between the F13 and ECC feud vary, one popular belief is that after a Florencia 13 drug plug was robbed by East Coast Crip members, the F13 la Eme representative ordered the gang to wage war on all ECC sets. Regardless of belief, the war between the two gangs has killed dozens of people. Racial tensions stemmed from the bloody feud, and reached an all time high where there were several cases of F13 members gunning down unaffiliated people on the basis of being black. Operation Joker’s Wild enabled change in this attitude, with several older leaders getting arrested and younger leaders taking over. Despite this, several cliques with racist attitudes still exist. Operation Joker’s Wild (2007) Operation Joker’s Wild was an initiative instituted by the Los Santos High-Intensity Drug Trafficking Area Task Force, the DEA, the ATF, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, LSPD, the IRS, the FBI and the Los Santos County Probation department in an effort to investigate the gang’s drug trafficking, extortion and racially based murders of African Americans. Following the investigation in 2007, 102 members of Florencia 13 were listed in indictments, leading to the biggest gang raid in American history at the time, with 96 of the 102 members being arrested. Charges ranged from drug trafficking to murder. While several years have passed since Operation Joker’s Wild, Florencia’s leadership has changed radically since then and Malditos has not fully recovered. Lacking a solid set of top-level leadership outside of jail, the younger generation has taken reigns. Increased aggression, risky low-level drug dealing and disregard for local police has landed a large amount of members behind bars. Modern Malditos (2007-) Like most young Florencia cliques, the racially motivated violence of the early 2000s soon dissipated and was replaced with realistic recruiting policy. While the neighborhoods that Florencia inhabits are largely Hispanic, African-American communities remained notable and so Florencia began to allow African-Americans into their sets more readily, a result of younger members taking up leadership reigns. The Florencia Malditos are a small, but active Florencia set that operate primarily out of Brouge Avenue in Davis, with some members living in surrounding areas. While they continue to sell drugs, soldering and gang-banging is at an all time focus with several members considering themselves “on the front lines'' in the war with other gangs. Like most other Florencia "front line" sets, expansion is a keen goal of the gang's leadership.
  5. NAME Public housing was only built with the blessing of the local government, and projects were almost never built on suburban greenfields, but through the regeneration of older neighborhoods. The destruction of tenements and eviction of their low-income residents consistently created problems in nearby neighborhoods with "soft" real estate markets. What now is "Roy Lowenstein Boulevard Housing Projects", was once called "Florence Housing Projects" this was in the early 50s. The name of the projects was changed due to racial tensions rising, and the ongoing feud between a variety of gangs. The housing projects, no matter the name always were all together, but this was far from the truth. The area in which the public housing was placed in, housed multi had an influx of Mexican and Mexican-American families living within them, with the rooms being very small it made everyone feel as if the gangs and not all of the street gangs were friendly to each other, this further led to bloodshed being attached to the public housing projects reputation. There was one very dominant faction in the housing projects, that was notorious for its careless behavior and its ruthlessness in its early years, although since they struggled to achieve a proper name for themselves, they went under the old project housing name, and they translated it into Spanish, calling themselves Florencia. FLORENCIA 13 The Florencia 13 gang, also known as the South-Side Florencia 13 gang, is a notorious and vicious Mexican-American Sureño gang, with cliques extending and operating criminally throughout the county. Some of the gang's oldest cliques are the Jokers (JKS), Malditos (MDS), and the Locos (LCS). Florencia 13 was originally formed back in the late '40s, in South-Central Los Santos, years after the flow of Mexican immigrants in the United States, later extending elsewhere in Oregon, Washington, San Andreas. The gang was mainly created by Mexican youth who mainly wanted to defend themselves from African-Americans, who made up the majority of the neighborhoods in the South-Central, in a mostly black neighborhood, it was not easy for the Mexican-Americans living in the area, so they formed a group of men to defend their turf. The Florencia 13 gang went under The Mexican Mafia's wings during the late 50s when The Mexican Mafia began recruiting Hispanics inmates to fight against the black inmates in prison. Having been one of the oldest gangs in the county, The Florencia 13 gang bolstered their loyalty and also started an alliance with the Mexican Mafia. Florencia 13 pays tribute to The Mexican Mafia with money received from selling drugs, theft, extortion, and other criminal activities. One of the gang's largest rivals were the East Coast Crips, the war started between the two gangs when some members from the East Coast Crips robbed a large number of drugs from Florencia 13. Since then the East Coast Crips and Florencia 13 have had several encounters, with attacks between the two, started getting more violent and deadly. One of the Florencia 13's leaders, Arturo "Tablas" Castellanos sent a word from his cell in Pelican Bay State Prison that he wanted the members of Florencia 13 to begin cleansing Florence-Firestone of black gangsters. Due to these orders tensions began to rise dramatically, turning the streets into a war-zone. The area itself has seen a large increase in violence, with civilian casualties growing. PAST In the early 70s, a former Florencia 13 member called Trinidad Iglesias got into a physical altercation with a Deputy called Gary Saunders near the intersection of Innocence Boulevard and Roy Lowenstein Avenue, during the physical altercation, Trinidad Iglesias took control of Deputy Saunders' gun and shot him in the face. At the time, Gary Saunders was still in training, Gary and his partner were working around the area of Roy Lowenstein, they stopped to speak to multiple Mexican males, as soon as Gary and his partner got out of their cruiser, the group of Mexican males took off from the scene, this led to the beginning of a foot chase. Gary Saunders chose to split away from his training-officer, and chase Trinidad Iglesias. The suspect led Gary Saunders to his residents, and that's where the physical altercation took place, not long after the interaction ended abruptly after Trinidad Iglesias reached and snatched the firearm from the officers' duty belt, and ended his life with three fatal shots to the head. In the mid-80s, The Gergathy Loma gang was known to be one of Florencia 13's allies, The Gergathy Loma members would drive from the East-side to South-Central to party with the Florencia 13 homeboys. One day, one of The Geraghty homeboys was cruising around with one of Florencia 13's homeboys called Tommie 'Smiley' Lozano, the driver parked in front of a Florencia 13 homeboys' house and called him out from the vehicle, the Florencia homeboy was called Michael 'Oso' Contreras, Contreras was known for being crazy and also having a volatile temper. For some reasons, Contreras and Lozano got into an argument, Contreras and Lozano were known for arguing a lot, so it was not a big deal for those who were around the argument. Suddenly, Contreras walked back into his house and came out with a rifle and shot his longtime homeboy in the head. Contreras got arrested on the same day and was sent to Pelican Bay prison. TODAY The park between Innocent Avenue and Roy Lowenstein Boulevard has been known for its reckless gang activity. Florencia subsets such as "Malos" and "Eazy Boyz" have shown multiple signs of their activity at the park, from social media posts to their initials put in graffiti. As the early sixties arrived, all the veteran gang bangers either retired from street life, got locked up, died or got deported, this caused major imbalance in leadership, the wild street gang was left with barely any control, this has mostly affected the youngest generation of affiliates as they had less and less influence to gang-bang like the old days. One of the prime examples of their reckless attitude could be the war between the East Coast Crips.
