1:41 pm
from the great street which is in jordan downs you're going to have things like pita roll and different games that are in there different subsets of the same game they're all street crips and that there's a lot of conflict within the gangs and. in between the gangs most of the conflict i would say revolves around money and most of that money is made through dope sales they do have other activities but that's that's the main source of most of their income. and that's what drives a lot of the violence that's out here we have. we're way down in murders historically for this area but we're still i think we're up to 40 for this year and i am not sure but i think this division is only 10 square miles and you've had 40 murders and that's that's the lowest amount of murders we've had in decades and it's virtually all gang related there are some that aren't you have some domestic violence but most of it's gang related and a lot of it's dope or we're going to go we.

1:45 pm
was printed was a day when. this is a story of women women with troubled histories and complex court cases you know some of us did leave leave who lives out there. who were not. the person that hears the cheesiness of the day are considered the most dangerous of criminals she's in a still. all the off 23 hours of the day tell me that it's not enough punishment it will give women on death row.
1:46 pm
moved up into the big time they know me more wrong. and it's. only through the surveillance photos that we got it was.
1:47 pm
in this community there are people who believe that it's ok to to sell marijuana to put food on the table it's ok to sell practical food on my table and it's when i got a tail it's really hard when you get into the community and you see how some people live and you see that there are no jobs and you see that i've got kids that have to eat and as a parent. i can't come up with a logical argument to say that if i were in that situation and that's the only option i had that i wouldn't do the same thing and so it's been really important to me to try and build some understanding in the police officers in the realities of the community and that doesn't mean by any. any sense that i condone it or i will let it go on especially since the other reality is that almost all the homicides
1:48 pm
that we do have are directly wrapped around narcotics and narcotics sales and so you might have people that will claim it's a victimless crime it's not there are people dying over it several years ago in the early sixty's this community was predominantly white and you had the steel mills and you had a lot of economic growth and then the riots came out a lot of those folks and a lot of those businesses left the community one big. because of fear too because of the folks within the community destroyed it themselves and it was hard to get economic growth and development back into this community because of the fear and i feel like south los angeles has just been left and pushed to the side since the 1965 riots and that i don't believe there's been enough time and dedication and passion income compassion and the fight for equality to build this community we need to get past the riots kind of a weird thing to say because that happened a long time ago it's been 20 years since the last one but the riots the 65 riots of
1:49 pm
92 riots left a huge scar in this community they left a scar in this community that has caused the business not to be able to come back. until we can bring business back to this community it can thrive there isn't a sit down restaurant in watts there isn't a movie theater in watts we do not have a y.m.c.a. or a boys and girls club or a large community center where a child can go after school to receive tutoring in sports in an afterschool program on a larger scale and every other store on any given street in watts is either a liquor store or a funeral home or in a church. you

1:53 pm
am. i am. i and. there's been a great number of shooting incidents which have occurred right outside. right outside between the church and a liquor store as a matter of fact a few years ago i was told by the sheriff's department there there were more shooting incidents that have occurred right outside our church than anywhere else in south l.a. . and try to be open to all different types of people because we're in an area where people are constantly hurting and costly and eat so we have to look beyond ourself in the towards helping people we have so many people that don't have a father so i can serve as our role model and that image and to give
1:54 pm
a positive bright or many people who haven't seen productive african-american males . doing all over the. back and we see. the we. my older brother was a gang member and my young brother was a gang member so i understand what happens where gangs and often times when people are trying to find in. the search and then they'll find again. some of the gangs they give them a sense of worth they feel important they feel like they are someone. however
1:55 pm
we try to do is really to let them know you don't need a game you have a sense of self-worth. with the lord. you can have a different sense of self-worth and you don't have to depend on anyone and besides that you can get involved in something that's on a. gritty you can be more. good news mason we started like this we will look up in the sky and starving l.a. we saw a lot of helicopters in the sky we knew something was going on so we want to track that down and more is something going now my guess what it's no yellow tape but. we'll find out what happens if you fail me. the cameras a very powerful weapon and once you have that camera on the camera doesn't lie on action you know you don't have to walk out there just you know going to any of that stuff your camera is your house is not going to lie the l.a.p.d.
