West Coasters ” The West Coasters (R80WCC) has a history which dates back to the early 1960s. Since then, Rolling 80s membership and territorial boundaries in, primarily, the lower 82nd & Prosperity Street area of Los Angeles, has increased to approximately 894 documented members. They are ranked among the top 10 gangs in Vespucci and approximately 275 members were served under a current gang injunction. City Attorney Carmen Trutanich said, “Through our joint efforts, we are removing thugs from the streets of Los Angeles, one gang at a time, so the residents of Los Angeles may once again walk in their neighborhoods without fear. My office’s Project T.O.U.G.H. is filing nuisance abatement actions against three gang-related properties based upon evidence of drug sales and criminal gang activity by members of the Rolling 80s street gang and their known allies at those properties. I want to thank our law enforcement partners, including the FIB, LSPD, and United States Attorney’s Office." The R80WCC has strong established ties to other Neighborhood gangs in the area, as well as to Crip prison gangs. The R80WCC is known to be involved in a variety of violent crimes including murder, assault, robberies, narcotics violations, and firearms violations. The federal investigation employed effective narcotics violations to target the gangs' upper-echelon and mid-level operators and known founders of the gang. HUD-OIG Special Agent in Charge James Todak said, “One of the primary goals of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Office of Inspector General is to reduce fraud and abuse in HUD’s rental assistance programs. To that end, we will aggressively strive to ensure that federally subsidized residences will not be used by criminals in furtherance of their unlawful acts. We continue to work with our law enforcement counterparts to help us achieve this goal.” In a similar case, known as Operation Stone Cold, the same task force targeted the Rolling 80s in 2006. In that case, 17 federal targets were convicted and sentenced. There were also 12 state defendants convicted. A sustained approach will be made locally by the implementation of a Community Recovery Plan, which will include measures such as, increased police patrols, including enforcement and nuisance teams in the targeted neighborhood; community clean-up days, graffiti removal; abandoned vehicle impound; trash clean up; community meeting with property owners, and the coordination of youth programs in the targeted neighborhood. All of the defendants face charges that carry a mandatory minimum sentence of five years in prison. The majority face charges that carry up to a statutory maximum sentence of up to 40 years in prison. The federal defendants will be prosecuted by the United States Attorneys Office. They will have an initial appearance in U.S. District Court in Los Santos this afternoon. The state defendants will be prosecuted by the Los Angeles County District Attorneys Office. An indictment complaint contains allegations that a defendant has committed a crime. Every defendant is presumed to be innocent until and unless proven guilty in court.
