LOLITA YEPES (aka Lady Creep / Lola Bunny) 17 years old La Cienega Canals native, although early on in her life her side of the canals was controlled by the Crazy Riders 13 gang, so she was more than likely only seen at school by the homies associating with Mexicans. During her initial interaction with the West Side Playboy Gangster Crips, Lolita got pressed heavily by the homegirls due to the high tension with the Sureno gangs that neighbor them in Vespucci. Known to be one of the only Mexican homegirls that kick it actively with the gang members on the 1900 side. She's one of the troopers from the hood that will literally blockhug the set from the time she wakes up until the time she goes to sleep. She often gets into fights with people and tends to go overboard to possibly get her point across. She tries to show her worth to the gang due to her ethnic background being rare in the set nowadays. Started kicking it with the homies when tension with the Terror Town 13 and Cyco Flats 13 gang were at an all time high. Doesn't smoke blunts & joints, only smokes vapes. There's also a high chance you're going to see Lolita with a liquor bottle, it'd be widely known that she favors D'usse & tequila. Is in close association with LaTrell "Tray Stone#4" Rose & Ashlee "Lady Flocc" Owens, if they're around it's a high chance Lolita is seen tagging along. Goes overboard with someone she suspects is an enemy. One time Lolita attempted to throw a female into active traffic on San Andreas Avenue after the girl was suspected to be a North Side Longos 13 affiliate. The same girl came back the following day and put hands on Lady Tray Stone. Lolita threw the girl into the canals after they packed the girl out. Involved with the murder of Montez "JB" Brown's sister Christina Brown from W/S 500 Block Piru. The news reported the girl was executed with 3 9mm wounds to her back puncturing both lungs. Also rumored to have been involved in a quadruple homicide in Del Perro, the victims were North Side Longos 13 members.

Gregory Rice a/k/a Big G-Tray#1 - Father Marcus Rice a/k/a Lil G-Tray#2 - Oldest Brother (Age 27) Gregory Rice Jr a/k/a Tiny G-Tray#4 - Older Brother (Age 25) Kymeka Rice is a La Cianaga Canals / La Cienega Heights (Vespucci Canals) resident, she lives in the heart of W/S Playboy Gangster Crip territory and has been living there since birth. Like many residents within that area, her family came up with majority of the Playboy Gangster Crips since it first started, her roots run very deep. She has a father & two older brothers from said gang. With the presence of a criminal street gang comes sacrifices for reputation, which some of her family have dealt with. Kymeka has a few cousins that were smoked as a result of a gang war within the area and even lost relatives & her father to the system via arrest. However, she still has the mindstate of "it is what it is", but still tries to remain low key and stay out of the way of all of that. With financial struggles coming with the arrest of her father, it forced her older brothers & her to get involved with the streets themselves, but taking lower risks by selling petty marijuana here & there. Kymeka's mother would open her house up to the gang members within the West LS community as a flophouse initially then eventually a daycare as her generation got older, she would partake in that venture herself to minimize her chances with the law. The legal hustle still led to Kymeka becoming more affiliated with the PBGC regardless, but she hasn't been initiated due to not doing "dirt". After a situation regarding her two best friends, Nehemiah Bai and Sincere Lewis arose, Kymeka took it upon herself to get them out of trouble. Nehemiah & Sincere Lewis stole a reputable Playboy Gangster Crip by the name of Tiny Sleep#4's car from one of the car ports within the La Cienaga Canals. Sincere & Nehemiah took the car on a joyride and ended up wrecking it. Tiny Sleep being the stern individual he is told the two boys that they would have to pay him $10,000 for the damage done to his car or he was going to kill them both. This caused a panic and some friction between the duo, however, they knew this was a deep hole they had to dig themselves out of. Kymeka and one of the older homies by the name of Hop Step got involved and decided to help the duo out with their debt. This would lead to Kymeka participating in her first ever house robbery. Hop Step, Nehemiah, Sincere & Kymeka made away with over 15k in stolen goods, they would take it to the pawn shop and come away with 12k instead. All of the money went to Tiny Sleep of course, but Kymeka managed to help out her friends. That situation alone would only draw Kymeka in to commit more crimes with her two best friends in the streets, and the gang problem within their community only made it worse. Tensions with the Sureno gang Terror Town 13 and Under No Authority (at the time were taggers) began to heat up and the teenage trio would find themselves in the middle of it often. Eventually, pressure from the older influential Playboy Gangster Crip gang members led to the trio committing more heinous crimes like assault, assault with a deadly weapon, robbery and murder. As this began to become a normality in Kymeka's life, her attitude and temper started to change. At first Kymeka was a friendly girl that associated with the different teens from her area, but after she got put on (or initiated) the set, her heart turned cold and her perspective on life changed altered for the worst. Kymeka started to get involved in shootouts, play roles in murders and perform "hood patrols" almost daily after the conflict between the Playboy Gangster Crip & Under No Authority (now Suicidal Mexicans 13). She started to focus on the gangbanging aspect of life more so than her original drug dealing & daycare ventures. This took a toll on her relationship with her mother, they began to argue more as her affiliation to the violent criminal street organization heightened. (Page 2 - 14) Gang conflicts with the Rollin 80's West Coast Crips drove Kymeka from her mom's home on Palomino Avenue unwillingly after her mom severed Kymeka's ties with their family daycare business completely. She was forced to go live with her aunt over on the 2000 side of Playboy Gangster Crip territory on Imagination Court. This move alone would only strengthen Kymeka's ties to the gang, there was no escaping it as her aunt requests that she uses some of her drug funding to help her pay rent at her house. Even though this was the case, Kymeka still focused on gangbanging with her friends in the streets and terrorizing her enemies. She started to recruit local females into running with the Hop Side Gangsters clique on 2000 block and started taking on a higher role in her hood at a young age. Kymeka still looks up to older homies from her set, but began to pass down the generational belief system that she came up in. Influential characters like Tyquan "Big Tray Stone#1" Belton, Kendra "Lady Tray Stone" Hayes, Shamir "Hop Step" Fryberg, Andreaus "G-Star#1" Randle, Tiontay "Lil Traffic#2" Rhodes, Kiree "Threat#4" Dynes, Nehemiah "Kill Shot#1" Bai, Sincere "Rampage#2" Lewis, Cashea "Lady Domino" Gaines, and Pedro "Lethal 1900" Luevano are the main factors in Kymeka's decision making whether it be right or wrong, she does it for her hood. (Pages 15 - 22) After getting shot for her gang, Kymeka started to fight her hardest battle, a struggle within herself, a self infused conflict with morality. She starts to see the downsides to affiliating herself with a gang at a young age, but goes on to accept what comes with it. Kymeka had an incident where she shot one of her younger homeboys on accident due to paranoia surrounding her own shooting. She begins to question herself on why she chose this life.

Kymeka lives on the 2000 Side (2000 Block) of the hood with her aunt. Gang Politics of Playboy Gangster Crip Immediate enemies of PBG are no different than twenty or thirty years ago. Vespucci Shoreline Crip and School Yard Crip are by far, the two hoods Playboys have the most hate for. Only a year ago, a Shoreline Crip was killing on Palomino Avenue near a clothing store in Vespucci. Soon after, PBG members took to social media to disrespect the fallen enemy. This type of behavior isn't at all new to the La Cienega neighborhood. LSPD and non-affiliated residents of the area are still searching for ways to combat the spiraling growth of the gang and the violence they bring with them. The West Los Santos Playboy Gangsters also have a history of rivalry with the Terror Town 13, Linden Blocc Gangster Crip, Rollin 80's West Coast Crip and Suicidal Mexicans 13.

Personality The quiet type until perturbed by others. Social media advocate, always posting on Instagram & Facebrowser. Outgoing, usually always seen at parties & events all over the West Los Santos community. Easily influenced by the likes of her older cousin Kendra "Lady Tray Stone" Hayes & the monetary based lifestyle that her older cousin's baby's father Tyquan "Tray Stone#1" Belton leads. Interests Deja finds interest in the flashy lifestyle that Rockford Hills has to offer not even a stone's throw away from La Cienega Heights. If she's not in the hood, she's out window shopping at the mall or somewhere on Hawick (fictional Melrose District in LA) doing the same exact thing. She loves a gaudy lifestyle, but unfortunately does not have the required wealth to go along with it. However, whenever she does get her hands on something of high value, she does not hesitate to show it off to her friends. When wealth & gaudiness isn't up in her face, Deja's phone usually is, she's a social media junkie. She's always up on the latest TikTok trends and even takes part in some of them in an effort to become viral. History With The Playboy Gangster Crip Deja's house on the 1900 side of the neighborhood got wrongfully shot-up by the enemy Mansfield Gangster Crip gang after an altercation brewed at the Vespucci Mall in front of the Binco between some MGCs and some PBGC affiliates. It threw her father into a rage to the point Deja's dad took 2 back to back fades with some older PBGC homies after confronting some of them over her wellbeing (Deja's dad lost both fights). After the fades were ran, Deja's dad (Nelson Austin) gained the respect as a "stomp down father" from some of the G homies on the 1900 side. Personal Upbringing Deja is being raised up in a single parent household, her mother passed away from breast cancer when she was 12 years old. The irreparable damage left her & her father heartbroken. This only made her and her father closer over the years. Recently, Deja's dad has put himself back out there on the dating scene, which she doesn't like. Most of the time when Deja's pops brings home a chick, she usually tries to run them off on her deceased mother's behalf. Hood Name Deja followed her older cousin Kendra Hayes' footprint in the streets, she started hanging with the gang members who inhabit the neighborhood and eventually fell into the same lifestyle as the local gangbangers. She gets her start in the streets by flocking houses with Nehemiah "Killshot#1" Bai (put off) and Ashlee "Lady Flocc" Owens. The flocker influence led to Deja going to juvenile hall numerous times. Despite this, she would still continue to associate with the set, she almost took a gun charge for Tyleek "Rampage#3" Webb willingly then managed to escape police with it thoroughly saving Tyleek (who is a felon himself) from gun possession charges. For some this showed how down for the cause Deja was and for this she got put on the set underneath her cousin's hood name Kendra "Big Lady Tray Stone" Hayes as Lil Lady Tray Stone. In Los Santos gang culture numbers attached to a nickname means: Big = #1 Lil = 2 Facebrowser

V-Town Playboys Gangster Crips [PBGC] are a predominately African-American street gang located in a West LS neighborhood in Vespucci Canals. At its height, this neighborhood's turf went from the La Puerta 10 Freeway (South) to 18th Street (North) from San Andreas Boulevard (East) to Bay City Avenue (West) during the 1980s and 1990s. In 1987, City Attorney James Hahn requested the first injunction against an entire gang in this neighborhood. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) filed an appeal on behalf of the PBGS, and a judge eventually denied Hahne's request because the gang injunction as it was written as a violation of the First Amendment right of freedom of association to the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment rights to due process. A couple of months later, Hahn went back to court with a modified version of his initial injunction and was able to get a judge to approve a preliminary injunction against the ACLU's recommendations. Since the 1980s, this mostly African-American community has seen an influx of Hispanic immigrants into this working class neighborhood that has reduced the size of the Black community and the membership of the gang, which still exists in the same area. West Los Santos (or WLS, West LS) & South Central are different in many ways, both in & outside of the gang politics, but it also has some similarities. West LS gang banging is different from South Central gang banging. - Playboy Gangster Crips (3x/GC) - School Yard Crips (Formerly 2x but do not claim neither 2x or 3x in current times) - Vespucci Shoreline Crips (2x) - West Boulevard Crips (2x) - Graveyard Gangster Crips (3x) - Mansfield Gangster Crips (3x) - Blastin Fools Gangster Crips (3x) - By Yourself Gangster Crips (3x) - Marvin Gangster Crips (3x) WLS gangs are made up of Deuces (2x), Trays (3x/Gangster Crips) & Mexican gangs such as Culver City Boys 13, Vespucci 13 & Del Perro 13, just to name a few. Many people confuse the 2x car with Neighborhood Crips which is not the case. Both cars are affiliated with each other, but they're not the same. Some well known WLS gangs consist of: - Playboy Gangster Crips (3x/GC) - School Yard Crips (Formerly 2x but do not claim either 2x or 3x in current times) - Vespucci Shoreline Crips (2x) - West Boulevard Crips (2x) - Graveyard Gangster Crips (3x) WLS has more of a suburban setting versus South Central where they have much more hoods & ghettos. WLS is more at risk for gentrification due to the high value of the houses & other property throughout different neighborhoods in the area. For this reason, WLS gangs hustle and grind a lot more to keep from being pushed out of the community. WLS gangs are also prone to gang injunctions as part of the process of gentrification; the Playboy Gangster Crips had a gang injunction back in 1987, which was an attempt to dismantle the gang but ultimately failed. For this reason, WLS gangs are not known to be super reckless/crash dummies as a gang to stay off the radar of law enforcement but regardless, these gangs still push their line and put on for the set. For several years prior to 2020, crime in Vespucci Beach had generally been on a downward trajectory. It is nearly impossible to pinpoint any single, overarching reason for the rebound, but experts have pointed to a range of possible contributing factors including economic insecurity, school closures and isolation from the pandemic. Police have also blamed a proliferation of easily accessible ghost guns along with bail and sentencing reforms they say allow repeat offenders to quickly return to the streets after an arrest. In March 2021, then-Chief of Police Robert Luna also pointed the finger at emergency measures to reduce jail populations during the pandemic meant to slow the spread of the deadly disease. “Prisons and jails have released large numbers of inmates to reduce the risk of exposure; more repeat offenders are being released on bail; trials and other court proceedings have experienced significant delays; school closures and lack of programming has negatively impacted youth engagement; and, with a record number of gun sales in 2020, there are more guns on the street,” he said. Police say they worked to take more guns off the streets as shootings in Vespucci Beach spiked during the first half of 2021 and the number of people wounded in those shootings also rose 55% as of July. Shootings have risen sharply since 2019, when the city recorded 122, to 544 in 2021, according to LSPD data. Overall, gun arrests were up 36% in 2021 as police have poured hundreds of thousands of dollars into increased patrols and operations to take illegal weapons off the streets, including a buyback program that gave residents a way to get rid of unwanted firearms in exchange for gift cards. A buyback event in October resulted in a total of 280 guns being turned in. Police found, however, that the guns being turned in were not necessarily those they were trying to link with shooting cases. In July, Luna said his officers—including specialized gun seizure teams—were taking an average of about 21 guns per week off the city’s streets. “I’m telling you right now that if our officers weren’t out there doing that proactive work, I don’t know where our shootings and murder rates would be right now,” Luna said at the time. In the time since its inception, the LSPD’s specialized Coordinated Response Team seized over 150 firearms. The department as a whole seized 1,057 firearms in 2021, a 37.3% increase from 2020, according to a city statement. The city says 2021 also ended on a positive note when it comes to gun violence. There were only 26 shooting incidents in December 2021 compared to the 53 reported in December 2020, according to the LSPD. “While gun violence continues to be at an increased level, it has been substantially reduced over the course of 2021 through the various strategies implemented by the Police Department and supporting departments,” police said in a statement. Meanwhile, property crime slightly decreased compared to 2020, which police have attributed to a reduction in petty thefts, garage burglaries, commercial burglaries and bike thefts. They said these categories declined 54.1%, 37.1%, 26.8% and 21.9%, respectively.
