the victim was a southern mexican gang member. but all violence in prison is gang-related. especially when you're talking about an assault where weapons were used where a guy was hurt this badly. it just doesn't happen without it being ordered or authorized by the gang. we believe right now that it was other southerners that attacked him. he was probably in trouble for one thing or another that he did in his past, violating gang rules. you can hear them doing their little solidarity inside the unit there. we don't know exactly what he did. hopefully we'll know in the next few days. >> it's important to get somebody, you're going to get to you. coming to prison made me more violent than what i was. it's about getting basically your little piece of america, but in prison. if a new yard opens up, you're going to fight for that handball court. you're going to fight for some tables. we're going to get our peace for our people and we're going to secure that area, but if you are a northerner, and you come into the areas, you're going to get stabbed. it's a whole different lifestyl

what's the answer, gang? 12. 12, and that's 12. that's ohm's law, ohm's law. ohm's law just gives us the relationship between current, the voltage and the resistance. kinda neat stuff. now, when i touch this like this, gang, i'm getting current that flows in one direction. goes from here to here or here to here, or i don't forget which is which, okay? but it flows all in one-- we have a name for current that has one directional flow. guest what we call it, gang. direct. direct current, dc. to say you have dc current is to say you have current that flows in one direction. that doesn't mean it has to be steady, steady, steady, it could be pulsed. you go off, on, off, on or something like that. but always one direction through the wire. and then you have the kind of current that lights the lamps in the room here and at home. and the kind of current you have in your home, and what is that? alternating. it alternates back, forth, back, forth. we call the kind of current that alternates back and forth guess what. -

what soured myself on the gang life?l honesty is i opened my eyes to see it for what it is. it's all a bunch of betrayals and lies. there's no loyalty. there's no honor. there's no respect. i seen too many innocent people being targeted that had nothing to do with the gang life just because one of their family members were a part of it. you ain't supposed to target innocent people. >> but perez left us with a piece of advice for any inmate thinking about joining a gang. >> my word of advice to him is to remember two things. one, that he's not in control of his life. because as long as he's a part of this gang, there's someone he has to answer. to whether he believes he's his own man, that's a myth. because someone's running his program. so he can walk around with his head puffed up, his chest out and everything and think that he's being a bad ass but he's going to follow orders just like anyone else. for everybody bad ass there's someone better. >>> coming up on "lock up raw." >> 99% of us are. >> how the convict code ap

joining gangs. and i do my work in the city of los angeles, and as you know, most people think of it as ground zero for gangs. one out of every gang member in the united states of america resides in los angeles. so i have a lot of people to observe. and i have a lot of people that i spend my time with, who i talk with, who i live with, who are my sisters and brothers, my godchildren, and they are my guides. i've interviewed and done life histories on over 300 gang members. and i think it's very important, we've heard a lot of stories today and are going to hear a lot of stories here today but i want to mention a group that hasn't been mentioned, which are women and young girls. and i'm looking out at some of your faces knowing that your sisters are part of gangs or at risk for joining gangs in our country as well as transnationally right now. now, as i've listened to these voices that we rarely hear, and we're so lucky to hear them today, as i listen to these voices that i rarely hear, there's a you

ain't that neat, huh, gang? but, sometimes, you can make things vibrate in the direction in which they would-- how do i cut this off? we'll have a little vibrations as we continue, gang. sometimes, you can get the vibrations matched to an object's natural frequency. because it turns out that everything-- everything will vibrate at its own frequency. and once in a while, you can set something vibrating without touching it. and when that happens, we don't call it refraction. guess what we call it, gang? it begins with an r, nonetheless. - resonance. - resonance. let me just show you an example of resonance with a couple of tuning forks. i've got these tuning forks so that they're the same frequency. i think they're 256. yeah, 256, musical note c. yeah? okay. what i'm gonna do is i'm gonna strike one fork, and you listen. hear that? now, you guys think, "oh, hewitt struck that one too." no, i didn't do it. why don't we try it again? watch. no, no, no. okay? i can resist horsing around. you get the--i strike this fr

here we go, gang. we do, by experiment, one of the beauties of science is you do by experiment, huh. you don't just do it all in your head. here we go. [makes noise] oh, oh, first of all, i should say this, you guys get the white again. let me put a reflector here. so all this beam energy goes down here, and this beam energy is gonna scatter off here, all right, okay? [makes noise] what color do you guys hear? blue. do you hear blue? you all get it? good. maydell, what color do you hear? white. yeah, she heard white. why did she hear the white? because she's standing right next to the-- that's right, honey-- some, some, filtering. she could have come right at her. it's a good thing you didn't have your eyes there. [laughter] oh, god, no, no, don't. let's get your ear in there. just get your ear, okay? you heard a white. isn't that true? okay. here we go. okay, like that. now, we are at sunset, gang. sunset, uh-huh, all right? air is thicker, huh? what color do you guys hear? blue. white. orange. yellow

anyway, anyway, gang-- is this, gang, we have to be patient of where we are in our history. everything doesn't happen at once. we're still growing, you know? now, with this fusion, how come we don't have fusion power plants? it's too hard to take these things and push them together. it's enormous electrical repulsion. if you'd heat this stuff up to a gas, maybe above a hundred million degrees, these things will be fast-- going fast enough, they'll scrunch. how does the sun and the stars do it? brute force, gravity. [makes sound] i say, "i don't care electrical repulsion, no electrical repulsion." wham. right in. and the sun and the stars is just brute force these things together, and you get your fusion. now, how do we get that-- how do we do that in earth? we've been trying brute force. with plasma reactors. heat these things up to over a hundred million degrees, get that gas, pinch it with magnetic fields. boom. try to get it defused. has the human race done that? yes, we've done that. have we had a sustained reaction? no, we haven't had a sustained reaction. have we had a

we're probably unique in how we deal with the gangs out here. we've accepted the fact that there are going to be gangs and there's nothing we can do about it, so we try to control, you know, what they do. and we use the leaders a lot to control that. most of our leaders here have done a lot of time in our maximum security facility. they don't want to go back. and we hold that over their head. we tell them to keep their people in line or they're the first ones that are going to go down, because we know how gangs work. we know this gang member isn't going to do anything unless he's got it cleared to the top. come on in, have a seat. so you want to give me your story? >> well, i mean, to be honest, i don't really have one. i mean, i feel like this dude is just trying to get out of trouble. he knows who i am and i go under the bus every time. >> who was the other guy? >> wright. >> the other one that got him -- >> yeah. >> was he doing something to him? >> no, i mean, maybe. i mean, everyone knew this guy was a piece of trash, but who knows, you kno

joining a gang at age 16. my mom told me i wish you were never born when i cried she said i was game i ran away many times after my mom's boyfriend beat me up. ramos claims he got out of the gang before the shooting and only giving the shooter a ride that day. he says as they were leaving the other person began shooting -- shouting they were rival gang members and that he began firing. ramos says it wasn't until two days later he learned people died. i was scared someone shot out of my car, now, i read that some people died. now, i'm 10 times more scared. the district attorney says it doesn't matter what ramos says, he believes there is an iron tight case. >> we presented nearly 100 witnesses and over 500 pieces of evidence. this is a strong case. >> she knows how risky it is putting him on the stand. >> there is a gamble. >> we'll find out, won't we? >> where is this gang member whom ramos says is the shooter? he simply disappeared. ramos comes back on the stand tomorrow morning. >> okay, thank you. police ar

gang on gang violence. and it's unacceptable.and as i said at that church, two very important messages. if a kid's shot in little village or a kid's shot in englewood, that's a tear in our city. no one can walk around in our city and say that's down there, that's over there. no. that's in our city. that's unacceptable. because we have a great city with great people. number two, it is about putting more police on the street and get kids, guns, and drugs off the street. the access to guns are unacceptable. and we need a change in policies. which is why i've talked about that. we've empowered communities to shut down these liquor stores in the neighborhood. okay? but it is working on a strategy that takes guns out of gangs, puts gangs on notice that these streets belong to our kids, belong to our families, they don't belong to you. >> you've been very vocal about gun law in the past. you've been strong on that and consistent. when you look at the trayvon martin case, to me the race element is a slight red herring to the bigger probl

in stockton throughout california and other states there is a pervasive gang problem. we find some of the best students we work with are still overwhelmed by this gang issue whether generational or neighborhood-wise. did you find your success more linked to the fact that you didn't have that family ties or didn't feel the burden to join a gang or be represented by that community? or was that something you struggled with? >> it wasn't necessarily a struggle because i know pressure is a lot. if i don't want to do something i'm not going to do it. [ applause ] where i came from gangs was a big part of the streets. so me being me i just stuck to the books, listened to what my parents had to tell me, the teachers and a couple of friends who had done it before me such as graduated and gone on to college. i just followed my own route. >> and the teacher, i'm sorry, do you find that you have students that are highly motivated that have the potential to succeed but are overwhelmed to the gang issue to the extent that it interferewise the academics. >> the streets are a major di
