>> the kings do the same thing? >> yeah. when we interviewed land kings, everybody knows them. and they say he's nuts. he's actually crossed the boulevard by himself and initiated fights with the land kings without any weapons. >> if you're a rival gang member, he knows he ain't got much time left. he's going to take as many people as he can. it's about his neighborhood. he loves 24th. >> what's your name? >> my name is chuko. >> that's your name on the street? >> yeah, my name on the street. chuko. >> chuko, spelled with a "k." >> the boogie man, that's what he is. the boogie man. >> right. i'm the boogie man. >> he's not a big talker, but he's never -- us either. the big key to this is the phone call, there's a shooting on the block, something major's going on. we might be looking for somebody in the neighborhood. >> he'll remember that phone

call. >> he owes us now. >> is there anything you want to say to the camera? >> i say, man, bar me up, please. >> you have to know how these guys think, how they act. why they do what they do. i was lucky. i left. i knew that there was more out there than just ganging and watching other people go down. >> a neighborhood block can become the center of a young man's universe, so much so that he doesn't know anything else. that's the price of growing up on chicago's southwest side. >> you plug? you in a gang? >> yeah. >> who you with? from where, here? are you? >> yeah. >> with them? >> yeah. >> ain't got nothing on you. you know i'll keep this. >> somebody four finger, man? >> huh? >> yeah, still. you're somewhere you're not supposed to be. you know that. >> but i got nothing on me. >> that don't matter.

you're somewhere you you're not supposed to be. >> let me get my knife back. >> you had a weapon, man. >> it ain't even the weapon. it's my four fingers. >> what do you think it is? >> it's not a weapon. it's my defense. >> you really want to argue with me on that? >> come on. >> who do uf think's going to win that one? as long as the blade is four fingers wide, it's supposed to be legal for them to carry. but it's still a weapon. >> all right. >> and you're 17. >> hanging out on the street all day riding your bike in a gang-infested area, you're going to find trouble whether it's going to be the police or some opposing gang member's going to come and shoot you up. you're going to find problems. the little village area is the largest area in the city that's controlled by two gangs. latin kings and two six. this predominantly latin king area goes all the way down to

21st street. california. and once you hit ridgway it's two six. so, violence is unreal over here. you live in a certain area right away, these individuals assume you're a gang member, you're affiliated. just guilty by association or guilty by where you live. >> you got to know who to look for. you got to know who drives what. if you don't know who is fighting who is who is shooting at who, you die. if you don't know who you can and who you can't talk to, you die. >> little village represents more than just battle lines within the hispanic community. for decades it's been a beacon of opportunity. generations of immigrants both legal and illegal have come to work in family owned businesses here. many of them along 26th street. >> 26th street is the second most revenue street in the city of chicago. right behind michigan avenue, believe it or not. it's all the small businesses,

but they definitely bring a lot of revenue into the city. living in this area for as long as i did, the people are some of the greatest. this is the hardworking older people. >> we came to this country to, you know, make a better life. as you see in the news, life in mexico, you know, you know, a cup of tea over there. >> you have a lot of illegal immigrants coming here who are hungry. they were born and raised in nothing but poverty. and they have that hunger to make money, so they go to any extreme, you know? >> that hunger drives some individuals to organized crime. >> him, huh? >> yeah. >> bring him to your office. >> yeah, we'll do that later today. >> at cook county jail investigators mike davis is seeking intel about a black market industry in little village. [ speaking spanish ]

he says when you walk down 26th street they got people just kind of flashing. >> davis is in pursuit of a counterfeit ring that sells fake green cards and driver's licenses to illegal immigrants. it's one of many local i.d. rings that altogether reap millions in profits. >> what they'll do is this is the universal sign for they call mika which is, like, license or i.d. >> he's got the help of mexican-born informants both on the street and inside the jail, including this man whom we'll call joaquin. he says what happens is you give him a picture and they go, it

takes them a couple hours to do it and when they come back, that's when you pay for your i.d. they always recommend a photo place as well. each person will make up to $2,000 every day. yeah. seven days a week. >> with an estimated quarter million illegal immigrants living in the chicago area, there's no shortage of customers, yet many of them choose to ignore where their money is really going. >> we'll have your guy go get the cards with them. bring them back. and meet somewhere else. >> we're trying to create a conspiracy and try to get as

many players that are involved as possible. he's going inside the laundromat now. going to go get it. >> who is going to dispute it, right? ew fedex one rate, i could fill a box and ship it for one flat rate. so i knit until it was full. you'd be crazy not to. is that nana?

if you're selling i.d.s on the street you're paying a tax to latin kings. they pay the gangs so they have no issues on the street and nobody tells anybody anything and everything's safe. >> fake green cards, driver's

licenses and social security cards. it's a market cornered by the gangs of little village on chicago's southwest side. criminal intelligence unit investigator mike davis is on the trail of one i.d. ring in particular. as he gathers intel from a jailhouse informant, davis launches a sting operation with the cook county sheriff's vice squad that same week. they'll use street informants in order to make contact with the ring. maybe we can do a loose tail on him. >> that's what i'm thinking. >> he's saying follow me. the same thing we're saying right now. okay. >> right now we're probably about a mile away from the jail. >> it's a straight shot. >> it's 26th street. >> yeah, bill, he talked to the guy on the phone so now i guess we're headed there. we're almost in front of that location. >> davis and commander mike

anton stake out a block frequented by phony i.d. vendors. >> sitting on this spot, huh? >> yeah, they are. >> this one right here? >> yeah, that one. >> that's him. >> while an informant negotiates a deal with their target. >> he's talking to a guy right now, bill, heavyset, probably about 5'8", looks like he's maybe 220, got blue shorts on, white gym shoes. >> can you get photos of the guy? >> ten four. >> their goal, to make multiple purchases and build a conspiracy case. >> there's a lot of money being made there, and what's that funding? it's, like, well, you know, that money's going to more fake i.d.s, it's going to other nefarious things they're doing. >> looking at a real license and looking at the fake one we purchased, you cannot tell the difference. who is going to dispute it, right? look at the -- >> it's got the hologram on it. it's good. >> yeah, it's real good.

>> the gang's money-making schemes don't end there. they're known to shake down local business owners as well. >> the gangs are probably running many more legitimate businesses on that street, so, again, paying a tax. they don't want to incur any problems from any of the gang members. >> this is something out of the '30s and '40s, you'd see the italian mafia. now it's the street gangs of chicago. it's organized crime essentially. >> some of these people are either intimidated or just fear them enough, they say do you know what, i'll keep my mouth shut, all it is. just a form of terrorism because that's what these guys work off of is fear and intimidation and if i got to work with a couple of them to try to slow them down that's what i got to do. >> gangs like the latin kings and the two six which call little village home can be notoriously difficult to infiltrate. that's why investigators at cook county jail try to flip key

players when they're at their most vulnerable. >> yeah. >> picking up detainee active member of a street gang, hardcore, recently has been stabbed up by opposition multiple times in the stomach. what we're going to try to do is get him to give us some information hopefully that can assist in some cases out in the streets. okay? you look [bleep]'d up. the other day when i came to see you. nerve damage? how many times they stab you? what neighborhood were you in? you're in a neighborhood or oppositions? >> opposition. >> did you know them? so what were you doing? after you got stabbed, laying on the ground? >> yeah, the first time i got stabbed, i was trying to breathe. i couldn't breathe. it was like 15 of them. >> 15?

why do you guys got so much beef with those guys for? something personal? >> this inmate who we'll call dante faces a battery charge that could put him behind bars for several years. like most detainees at county, he's still awaiting trial. he could cut a plea deal but only if he cooperates with authorities first. >> your face was on here one time, you know that? >> that's it, man. >> you listening to me. your face was right here. problem child. everyone top targets. anybody that comes into the system, it's an area one target. i'm going to come and pay you a visit. guess what gang war gets you, stabbed up. how many times? >> five. >> left for dead. you think he's not going to retaliate. whatever stays on the street will be handled on the street so you know already he ain't going to tell me who did it. what's the war about? what is it?

why do you guys commit all these crimes for? >> all the gangs want our territory. but we just fight for what we think is right, you know, keep our neighborhood the wayet. it's just when other people come through and we have to use violent force, it's -- that's when stuff gets ugly. >> what about the families? don't you think about the families? nothing? >> that's not even in your head. to me it's kind of like being in the military, you know, how they brainwash you. when you first get -- basically when you first turn, they brainwash you. >> is it a bragging right that a guy just went over across to the opposition and shot up their block and they come back and brag about it? >> uh-huh. pretty much that's what they do. >> are you -- i figured that's what you -- you're probably one of the number one, probably number one guys that does that. >> i'm one of the guys who tries that. >> is it fair to say this guy here would probably be -- >> he got bragging rights. >> he got bragging rights? a couple homicides under his belt?

a couple? >> yeah, a lot of everything. >> have you -- you witness any of them? i can imagine -- i can imagine you did. uf just don't feel comfortable in telling me. >> i don't feel -- >> how important? how important is it to go home to your kids? how important do you really want to do it? do you want to go in halfway or fully? right now you're in iffy-iffy. >> quarter. >> because you still don't have trust, but when you're sitting here in a little more time, you'll probably say, i'll do it again. right now you're just feeling out the waters but you can't feel out the waters because -- >> i'm waiting for it to get lukewarm. >> don't get found guilty because then it's going to be too late. i can't do nothing for you. >> while dante weighs his options, investigator mike davis

continues to work with paid street informants on a long-term sting operation. he and the sheriff's vice squad are targeting a counterfeit i.d. ring. >> right now we're trying to identify the players and find out exactly where they're printing the i.d.s. right there, right? is that where they met? >> one week after making their first undercover deal an informant helps them set up a second buy. >> whoever's got an eyeball, call out what's going on. >> the more fake green cards, driver's licenses and social security cards that they purchase, the stronger their case becomes. but this is not the first time that authorities have tried taking down a little village i.d. ring.

yeah, the same day. it didn't stop anything. there have been numerous raids at that location and to my knowledge there's still up and running. there's more spots, yeah, people are telling us all the time. we try to look in to all of them, but it's difficult. >> i know it got real hairy on the news here in the immigrant community, you know, people were really angry that those businesses got shut down. it really didn't dissuade the community in to thinking that anything really wrong was happening. >> yet davis believes that people might feel differently if they knew the whole story. >> how much coke did you get caught with? >> 132 kilos.

>> outside of the latin kings, who else would you drop off to? this right here is a hub. i'm talking pounds and tons of drugs. >> little village is a very hot spot for the entire midwest. >> what cartel were you working for? >> these guys don't mess around. you get your hair cut here. you find that certain thing you were looking for here, but actually you get so much more. when you shop at these small local businesses, you support all the things that make your community great. the money you spend here, stays here. in this place you call your neighborhood. this saturday is small business saturday. get out and shop small.

you can drive trucks right through the border now without a lot of fear of getting caught. chicago being geographically located almost in the center of the country, it becomes a hub for narcotic traffickers to score their drugs in this area and distribute them throughout the entire midwest. originally when i started doing narcotic interdiction, the value of a kilo of cocaine at that time was about $47,000. now the average price of a kilo of coke is about $18,000 to $19,000, so it's gone from maybe

somebody carrying a suitcase with 30 or 40 pounds of cocaine in it to now they have to get truckloads of it up here. if you're talking about millions of dollars, you're talking about huge amounts of drugs that you have to smuggle. >> for the powerful mexican drug cartels, the only cross-country trips worth taking are the big payloads. smugglers drive their cargo 1,400 miles from the border to reach chicago. where they off-load at warehouses and depots controlled by the cartels. one key distribution hub little village on the southwest side. and ironically only blocks away from the cook county jail. >> right around here is a hub for huge, massive quantities of krug drugs. i'm not talking about the street corners doing little bags here and there, i'm talking pounds and tons. this is a chicago stop and then from here it goes out. the guy we're about to interview

was running drugs. from what i understand, he was dropping in chicago, detroit, indianapolis. he had, like, a whole run. i just want to find out exactly the system he used or the system these cartels use in order to get the drugs up here. first of all, how did you hook in with the cartel? >> i owned a truck repair shop. >> where at? >> right on the border. i was working on trucks and they come in, pay cash, good money. just one thing led to another and -- >> how did they approach you with it if i may ask? >> very blunt. straight up. >> you want to start driving trucks? >> you want to make some dough. i'm making dough, what you talking about? yeah, but, you know, take this load and go to memphis, tennessee. >> was that your first one? >> yeah. going to memphis. >> you hit more than one spot or just one? >> oh, yeah. >> how many drop-offs would you do? >> it depends. that was the first drop. >> what was your average?

>> seven, eight cities. >> at one time? >> on a run, yeah. i took the load to memphis. >> okay. >> 500 pounds. >> of weed. >> sure. that's all it was. and i did that with a u-haul. >> was it u-haul or penske or -- >> u-haul because you don't have to stop at scale houses. >> yeah, it gets you out of the weigh houses. it absolutely does. >> exactly. >> it looks like you're moving. >> it just looks like you're moving. >> yeah. >> they would call me and say go get a medium. that means a medium-sized u-haul. i would go down and rent a medium-sized u-haul. >> would you cross the border with these trucks? >> no. >> you pick up in texas? >> i would take it to a motel and park the truck. leave the key on the front tire. i then would go to a restaurant or somewhere, eat, whatever. about three hours later, they'd call and say, you ready to rock.

where am i going? you going to windy city, okay. for every thousand pounds of weed you haul, you make 70 grand. i run for these guys a year. and i made $5.5 million in one year. >> yeah. cash? >> yeah. >> what cartel were you working for if you don't mind me asking? >> i can't tell you, man. >> yeah? >> they'll get grandma and kill her again. these guys don't mess around. >> this inmate is willing to share only so much about the cartel. he refuses to give authorities anything they could use to arrest anyone. that would no doubt get him or his family killed. for the same reason, whoever set him up isn't likely to testify against him in court. >> when do you think you're going to cop out? >> i'm not coming out. i'm walking out. >> you'll just sit here for seven years? >> no. i'm going home next month, man. i'm going to make this son of

a -- >> you think so? someone will have to take the stand? >> as long as the inmate stays in the county, he'll make his case with other smuggling cases. >> anytime you can talk to a guy like that. i'll talk to him two or three times after the next bust, is what went down and what did i miss? how much more was there that i didn't see? it will give me more things to look for. >> the narcotics being hauled into little village among other hubs keeps street gangs all over chicago in business. the cartels give everyone an opportunity to move product as long as they can pay for it. >> they're not just distributing it to other hispanics, they are distributing it to white drug dealers, to black drug dealers, anyone that will sell their

product, they're selling it to them. >> what do they got up here? >> let's find out. they'll go rocks and blows. >> if there is money to be made, there's somebody there. [ woman ] we had two tiny reasons

the next step is to track down the people that actually print the i.d.s. and then unpeel the conspiracy from there. >> two weeks later, a tip leads davis and one of his inform amendments to the mexican consulate on chicago's lower west side. there they find another i.d. ring. hustling fake green cards out front. >> that's just how bold they are, do you know what i mean?
