courts jordan downs nickerson gardens long gardens and. the largest ones over are going to be jordan downs nickerson and imperial courts basically there's a different gang in each one of them nickerson gardens has bounty hunter bloods it's a it's a really large gang a couple 1000 members i'm sure in imperial they've got some some pretty good names they've got i think funny side till side i'm not sure where all these names come from the great street which is in jordan downs you're going to have things like pita roll and different games are in there different subsets of the same game they're all 3 street crips and there 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 and you have some domestic violence but most of it's gang related and a lot of it's doper than we're going to go we. want to boys you know average up to a 1000 out of the day every day. as an average corner or want to avoid a really got it together you can you know make a living more tonight. bring your own life back. so do.

not told me if i get a good thing every day take resume i get paid every day every day i do a good count for a degree. please in a large amount of. you have to be a large amount of anything is money to be made you can make money off of marijuana crack crystal any warning would you if you got a large amount that's when you make enough money. i said. i don't have a. right . to move up the kind of you.

know supply i have making those dollars you know i'm saying. you know you get it and you got to get it or you know i'm saying it's a lot of people we don't know mom and dad so you know he has a discreet and look for total streets and they say you got it you know be a thing and then get on from there you know looking back. you know it was probably going to. be like here. you are here and. i'm not going to write. you just a few minutes one. week game and we represent a project live we always do it at but at the same thomasville something else out there bigger than this i'm not i never stop playing now this model that i lead as

pays to dev as us want to see some beer for all of us to grow to succeed off got people that care and love to wait for the bot. what's up. every day when i try to get everybody and i did a good. time to stop. feeding a wasp it was day one of.

the swarms of them so moving. to build your local was before. much of those who herds the food you are moving to do so soon we will. we will. move. move. move show you the snooper you with liberal media look very good. move slow most of these girls will give you films for good good girls. go to school so look i do assume you belong here to show the story or to go. to starbucks to. get to meet until it was the little blue mist they'd say look it is it's. just testing understands to just move to the mashed old truck stop the president and please introduce more students.

as we have producers to post news for 2 snippets almost all knew it because the. if the girls are with you or disapprove just to your machine as the shoes should expire you should do if we were was do or do the. move the big time they mail me my robert. scales bend it. around these are the surveillance photos we got it was probably the. rest of.

his 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 for activa food on my table and it's when i get 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. in the sense that i condone it or i will let it go on especially since the other reality is that almost all the

homicides 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 a lot of those folks in a lot of those businesses left the community one 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 the 92 riots left a huge scar in this community they left a scar on 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 boys and girls club or a large community center where a child can go after school to receive tutoring in sports and afterschool program on a larger scale and every other store i need given street unwinds is either a liquor store or a funeral home or in a church. you

. need to live my life. you know. that i was going to. have one of them again you're like oh. are you going to hear uma down like you want to lie in state. you know saying stay hustlin really before fell and broke his heart really hold on no redemption all day and one day and i'm not going to you just like i'm not going to you know that i'll believe you and now say i'll be here with nobody to you or me even by being you you'll be in a failing on me you know saying i feel like you can't make it you know i'm saying there's a way you can make it all me they got programs you would get into how many you can

get you a job or a legitimate job homie and i have to worry about all that money but the good the people go. so help me get a job they got right now i've been looking for 5 months bro. something months 5 months i'm tired i'm ready to give up their so you've been. saying. access to good grounds you know if they're out here on the streets to get hanged and rifles you know assault rifle that bag for less than a $1000.00. here you know the heart is here and it is that. you keep this honest now and i do not talk about the way man and i had to go here work you know so because you know. you know gave it back to you know got to be college right my route you know no hammer no b.c. if you gave it to going to memphis i saw that it come to try to play some game going where you go out there see the street oh my lord just

a spade right here we call this out of not really going satisfy. it is really going to be a good look at it go to just look. at it down town by the cliffs you know does not talk about sound bites i have lost many friends in my lifetime but the passing of my brother i was with him you know most. of those and i was a big toll on the passing of my brothers but i deal with them every day listening to other every day you know the last i knew of friends before you thought of me so you know had heard me but. not to the extent that i lost my brother. i mean i mean a few years later my so i lose my sister my sister geeky oh. so i still haven't recovered from all that like deep down inside a steel taken oh you know told on me to where i haven't found a way to cope. 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 who are constantly hurting and costly in need so we have to look beyond ourself in the boards 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 a positive light on many people who haven't seen productive african-american male. you know. back. to. you know the beautiful. my older brother was a gang member and my young brother was a gang member so i understand what happens with gangs and oftentimes when people are trying to find themself they'll search and search and then they'll find again and some of the gangs they give them a sense of worth they feel them for they feel like they are someone. however

well we tried and it is. really to let them know you'll meet again you have a sense of self-worth. with the lord. they 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 this on. gritty you can be more. good news mason we started like this we will look up in a 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 up there with the hood knows we put down flop people as we go do we will find out what happens if you fail me. the cameras are very powerful weapon and once you have that camera on the camera doesn't lie on actions you know you

don't have to walk out the pistol you know or do any of that stuff your camera is your house is not going to lie the l.a.p.d. murdered an unarmed teenager in the imperial courts housing projects thursday afternoon to teenager identified as james davis dislodged his weapon began to run witnesses say police retrieved his weapon and fired a fatal shot into the teenager's back after james davis was shot he was handcuffed and then denied medical attention from a nurse who happen to be on site as he lay dying when i shot to the back a nurse was on the same who actually lives in imperial forces she was visiting there will be ale to start the pharmacy. to see what they're going. to get that they need it right. yeah pretty much right this right. now i. just heard from a c.p.r. certified and they still read all the time i think they're going to be down here

trying to the police are shot somebody in broad daylight in finance. body stand over him while he died i covered that story in just another sad story. this block here is 115 street one of the busiest rock cocaine spots by far and ones but i would say even in the country. my experience nobody does more. than the bombing on the bloods and i mean the money is a huge it's probably $30.00 to $50000.00 and we can in sales just in this develop could be biased. their rival gang raping creeps in the same problem to make money in sales a narcotic in the motivation to stay within the gang is a nice alive in haiti it's an ongoing feud between the great st crips and the bonnie hunt of bloods we've had 4 murders in the last week and i think into the

murders were 847 so when they go out on what they call a mission or a murder they bring a high powered rifles. and usually when you see a group like that hanging out they were going to spot. just places what you call the mothership. the bloods. originated here if you're going to western movies they had to bounty hunters. and during that time they used to you know watch the western movies and always talk about the bounty hunters and that's how we was created we took that same piece. start calling ourselves to bonnie hunt and it was a murder that took place on the bonnie hunt of blood he was stabbed to death outside the area you could see right here is the vigil they love to honor their dead. when there's a murder between 2 powerful gangs a few results from the one incident if he kills upon an honor then the bombing

honors get together and they need to retaliate and the more violent gang is. the more respect it has the more violent a gang it is the more successful they are the more violent the gang is the more the community feels that they are intimidated and they can't do anything about it and that's how they run the streets. city on. how.

when i don't think this is a no fly zone considering they don't want it but how much of the us i mean does. the love of the missing mom of this mean don't you think it's time i'll tell me. that. it's. very uncertain. world cup and the baby had a fever of $38.00 so point $30.00 we're hoping that's. cute

. it was. a long while come to worlds apart and medicine is one area where succumbing to authority is not just tolerated but why is the expected we still treat our doctors this priests possessing a secret knowledge that's imparted on day millenia old oath at least so many medical dog having been proven wrong in recent years can doctors even be.
