this is a murder that was caught on video the murder was committed by the great street crips it was an in-house murder meaning that a street crypt killed another street crips oftentimes gang members killed by cold and one of the code says to never commit crimes against your own gang members in this particular scenario or murder investigation there was a. transplant that was a narcotics user he went to purchase narcotics from 3 crew members on the narcotics was either bad or he was somehow slighted on it as a result he went to another great street cred gang member in got a gun with a gun the transience shot and killed a street gang member at the time of the shooting there was another great street gang member with each person that was killed the victim of the murder and according to the game code he asked to make amends for allowing a gang member to be killed on his own watch. if he doesn't act them or take. some

sort of action against the shooter that he will be disciplined by his own gang so. on this scenario that particular crips gang member. carries out the murder against the great street gang member who provided the gun to the transit and it's all caught on video. this is inside jordan downs it's mid day and you can see there's about 10 to 15 gang members loading the parking lot. just going about their daily business. is the group here of the member several of them loitering you going to see the victim of the shooting come running. to this area with the suspect shooting behind them. here you can see all the gay members scatter. and they kind of hang around. because they know it's going to be a great street on great street or who's disciplining another member so they sit.

around and watch where the sit was all right looking at all of them with one out of the way because they'd all be intended targets here the suspect is chasing the victim around the vehicle. and he's just waiting to kill him. here the victim tries to run the sussman shoots him in the hand. he falls. and then he comes up and finishes among. you puts the gun in his back we're going to somebody and then just slowly walks away he has nothing really to fear here in the neighborhood because they're all great secret gang members and he's banking on the fact that no one's going to go to court and testify against them. and you see that nobody's really shocked about it nobody's talking about it nobody chased down the suspect. and then they just go about their daily activities of the and then obviously homicide will come in and start their investigation. the 1st time i was shot 3 times i mean i really didn't

realize until my stomach start burning was my stomach start burning i knew something wasn't right so. i want to spit and i want to spit the spitting come all the way out of my mouth there must i still have burned even more as they call ambulance basically and when i got shot the tent it was early in the morning i was actually stranded somewhere somebody walked up with a santa had his bag came from behind his back and called me by name and shot me in my face 1st as well when he shot me my face i turned and went to try to run the shot in the back and i leave it like to go a day to make me spin like michael jackson would let me go no where as so after that the 2 shots with 38 i don't know who had the 38 but i saw the one with a 45 in my face and i got 8 with a 45 and 2 with a 38 at that point and the humor is poor you say and i was laying there i was saying your brain steals we work it so when i'm laying there and i pay as gay as i thought i was going to die because you know he said you do with before you die and i pay as gay as some light on. go out. in like oh.

i could really see out of. this after we get out of the sad face so i just had this one open like. then once i got to ask that it was another scary feeling i went through because when i was back there the doctors when really rushing to do it was like they will sit nobody on a hurdle and i'm sydney i'm trying to say how do a look and my jaw really open to the feel like my jaw was broke from when a bullet hits they had a look so now my brain saying. you know i was kind of glad that doctors came in at last or really kind of feeling myself and getting around the collapse. right as i'm raising my shirt up and seeing with all this that i'm feeling oh my intestines on i want out i had a heart attack the doctor said i walked in right when i walked in and it was like a whole another. just went through my you could you could actually see. and you know that was the experience of the bed right there.

until some 2530 hood's militant groups were all working together on the same page in the same model to restore community to save lives so what happens is that they get a shoot in a community. community says this community and it was. done from one of the guys i collaborate with at the table he will call me the same in one of my home. they have no phone or. come to the table to go and defuse the situation try to make peace bring this went out on these keep the peace and keep the violence. did not times out of in his new generation to take place behind girls. he says the. and it

just for that alone we don't know dead bodies a killing behind that so what we do is we step up and he feels that it was him or my old geezer. and we tell that we give the answers that we don't lay this down and we both watched this being you know. before you begin to pick up the phone call somebody call the minister in advance just call a victim support group call an ambassador most days can be talked out they could be told that they can be resolved we can get your i pod back we get your 50 bucks back can't get you like we got the night. you know now. that was 2 different realities a reality where we get involved in gang bang the various reasons we could be here all day but the reality for the system is good business. us working on each other. each other is good business the state of california alone makes $6000000000.00

a year of the prison complex system if you can figure a way to make a 7 plus trillion dollar debt to peace you have global peace tonight. you stop the wars not only in the streets but internationally this is more money and. that's why this reality exists. for any office of the firm holiness walking by point let me the point that matt always pointed people. this will make the black community bear when officers arrived people community jobs pointed people don't even know him might want to you know want to. do police officer haircuts man you are going a little stronger man they showed me that you've been eating a lot this week and i just seen already go by little i mean enough. already need man. you know are you going to. there. is some attrition we're going

to show. money up to and we instantly smoke all the money up in one week. or you smoke all the money that you made made it one week. and it's hard to do like trishul work and money come come hard man a new blog of money. our way about he looked like he used to weigh like 100 pounds you know we weigh like 115 now larby i don't know the rooms you see in clover though there were only the affairs turners and assume you were as close as close as where and here were. one of the reasons i became an attorney was to help people because you know when i was a little girl i noticed then there were a lot of drugs in the community a lot of gangs in the community. i found 2 bodies dead bodies that have been overdosed on heroin they were in the alley all run to the 1st and we can leave and

i knew who they were because my cousin was a heroin addict and i knew that one of the women i knew her little girl and i knew her and i had seen her when she was alive so i was in 3rd grade when i saw these bodies and then fast forward a little bit farther into the future and then crack came into the community and my little cousin was a victim of that and so just seeing what that did to the community i decided to open have a disability. or use drugs they can't get a job maybe more have been tagged with balinese for low level offenses when she jam with a felony you're serving a life sentence on the installment plan basically you are going to go in and out of jail because you've got to come out and be faced with i have a felony so i can't have public housing like imperial courts i can't be with my family because i have a felony you stand on the streets trying to fair. on how to get

a job you can't get each hour because you have to check the box and if you're a felon you know most people will employ you you can't get public housing public health you can't get medicare medicaid if you have the felony move. to a minimum one car serene and actually it's drug related again as we're finding and that's why these prisons are so overcrowded now because it drags and so what we're finding is when they come out they can't get treatment because my facility is based on medicare and i can't serve the women and balinese so it's a catch 22 and it keeps bringing people back around to the same place where they can mining town they can find housing they can get a medical mystery man they may be depressed at this point they won't be able to get any treatment for their mental health issues and so therefore it just becomes a vicious cycle that keeps repeating itself over and over. male black and i. mean you're going along are becoming you know a. little bit about what

a lot of the predator. narcotics is doing surveillance on non-narcotic so you're minimizing gardens which is on a budget which is like going to the last 15 years. so we're going to try to take down the cellar right now. let's pick up the very start you know. so the body on a blood from one of the largest to most violent gangs in the country. make tremendous profits on one page. at any given time inside the water carrier and use it to use 3 to 5 to narcotics unit selling for a day and another handful of just what are called perp sellers which this gentleman story is just selling on the streets to locate it. rogers less so but you.

know a lot of. live . place.

play. play play. play.

continue watching us and. as the election cycle rages on the media highlights or even invents what they deem to be important even radical what they don't tell you is how the political center is collapsing in today's campaign is what voters think about the status quo. yes.

school here i don't know if it's really for me. to have those i don't know man oh i'm also me with my oldest so we live it was a lot. going on. you gotta keep this place through nobody's or you don't listen to your album don't know how long you've been sitting here obviously one of those couple minutes sighing. you know they haven't checked did you say it's in his. ear but i think that's that's where he keeps it. yeah let me let me check with these guys right now. you can see red snake is a jacket has read everything is consistent with gang activity. this is their territory bonnie hunt blogs nobody else's territory you better have a mission to be in here if you can rival gang and if you're not. this gang has a different sets of cliques to the gang and they're broken up into crews they got you shooters they were crew you dope dealers or crew your robbery suspects

a cruise gentleman here is part of savage squad it's a click of the body on a bloods that responsible for street robberies home invasions look at store robberies. and they take pride in that i mean tattoo themselves they take the legions to each other and that crew you see arms so this is from their christian gardens is the 112 street that's his clip me h.w. for money on a watch. and then this is be ip instead of rest and peace it's bonding and peace and that's his home. there rival gangs crave street so they'll have $107.00 which is the pinnacle for murder. street with that she crossed out. you're telling everybody that you killed a great street and. everybody comes out to check on these guys in a report back to other gang members so why they're being stopped as you can. see behind us 120 i think it's 127 our luck is a unit that's selling our colleagues so as much as a concern about these guys i'm more concerned about the money inside of me with his

hand inside and narcotics inside so they'll move this location right when they can set up shop somewhere else. all these guys are here a customers whenever you see a group of transients hanging around you know that there's a narcotic location within 50 to 70 feet and they set up camp here and that's all they do is smoke all day long but these guys again it's everything's full circle so these guys now are your car thieves your burglar is because they have to feed their habit and a gang members know that so it's just a revolving door here. is enough from bad enough to take. the other suspect into custody for sales a narcotic so tyson's going to bring him back to the station people for sales.

i. i. i i. i. you know by vocational pastor is extremely difficult i work full time as a special agent for the u.s. department of justice office of the inspector general and that is a position in which i investigate f.b.i. agents the agents u.s. attorneys and others. it's difficult to to handle both jobs well. i've been pretty successful of both areas. i believe it's imperative for me to continue in my career in the federal government because. as a role model in both areas of life so people when they come to our church and they

found out that number one i am by vocational that that's impressive to be because they want to know how i can hold it all together and secondly because i am a man of god and i treat everyone fairly no matter where i'm at. i believe that is our primary responsibility because the god that we serve is a god of 2nd chances and i am so pleased that we have so many people in our parish that have been rehabilitated people been formerly incarcerated former drug addicts former prostitutes gay members and we accept everyone as they are and we let them know that hey they may have made mistakes in the past but they are god is a forgiving god and a merciful god we're here to help. what happens with so many people the wind up being homeless is that they've had opportunities

that have presented to the south that maybe they haven't been able to take advantage of it. down. for me. i had a brother homeless and eventually died on the streets and it's very difficult to deal with someone who has really given up on life. when you think about the sheer numbers of individuals who find themselves homeless in los angeles we're talking about estimates 38 to 45. 1000 people on a nightly basis find themselves only this 4 door. exists between south los angeles and downtown los angeles. sutro in l.a. content. on skid row skid row's a diverse community you know folks won't run. see guys that i know you know

stay with our group your role in the mission and they go to jail and they end up in a county jail for 7 months by the case but i always said you know they go to court the case is over the side oh it wasn't you usually go. you know what happens if a guy have a job you know lost a job i know we all pay a rate you know it's very few people have their own home you know so by the time you get out your apartment is gone you know all the stuff is in your apartment is gone because you only got 90 days to come pick up your property you know is there music out to do it so you do music every day. so you get out you have nowhere to go you have no money you know what do you do you come skid row to get a road is the only place where you could come see you roll. you something to get some clothes and hopefully you know design is not to go find a show to be you know is going to get into a program. the higher an estimate of disconnection from the labor market for african-americans is around 60 percent for african-americans between the ages of 18

and roughly $45.00 so think about think about you have a population in 2012 about 500000 african-americans who reside within the city of los angeles which is 459 square miles and a large percentage of them the greater number of are not connected to work in los angeles one in 18 african-americans own homes the actual homeless population. in this 50 square block area it's about 4500 but when we talk about south central los angeles combines south central los angeles home osama's combined with downtown los angeles homelessness we're talking about 20000 people skid row. exists within the center of power in los angeles and i think it's important to note that skid row thievin in los angeles california is

a well kept secret this is the epicenter this is the epicenter of poverty and if you can't fix it here you can't fix it. the largest amount of homeless people are african-american children because of you render why and why many homeless and she has 3 children what happens is there's not a lot of housing for women and children so the woman goes into transitional housing by herself and those 3 kids usually get split into different foster homes and at that point they may never really see each other as a family again and and that's the most one of the most heart wrenching things because the kids will tell me i had my little 16 year old boy and you know boys are supposed to cry and i saw a tear about to form a design he said mistakes and i didn't do anything wrong i don't understand why this is happening to me and. it was very sad and i was like you know he didn't do anything wrong but his life had been turned upside down and and i can't tell him

that his life is ever going to get better. or ever since time when the kids are going to get the kids ok in the teacher spends time think the teacher gets the kids and the parents spend time they get the kids in it the gang spends time they get the kids more often than not the gang is the one that spends a time when the kids and so they do get that sense of community from them because there's a very dysfunctional family unit there's you know they're not everybody needs some kind of support and nurturing in some sense of belonging and appreciate. so i got to go wherever they can get it from is yes. yes. yes yes. i do oh.
