Distance from each gang. So this is jordan. This is the territory claimed by the green street crips during war time bonnie hunt is now less likely to come in here because theres one way in and often one way out so once you come in and do a shooting youre trapped in their neighborhood and they can return fire so its not the safest way to to avenge a shooting so often theyll go on the outskirts of the neighborhood hoping to get a great street kripke thats a lot of times when innocent people get shot. So in the next couple of days someone from this development most likely will go over towards nickerson like they have the last couple of days and commit a shooting and vice versa so all these neighborhoods now are in play. Or if you are. Several months ago. A gentleman with the moniker of menace from 15 hero was caught inside the gang territory of the Village Voice a couple of the village boys. Went outside jumped on menace beat him down and stuffed a minister ask you. And. They took the trash here and brought them back behind another house and tortured them they sodomized him they sliced him up with a machete and when they sliced him up they put in the end his chest the Village Voice. And then they continued to torture him then they wrapped him up in a rug burned and dumped him in long beach theres one thing about beating a guy down or killing them but the torture of the sodomy all that stuff thats thats just what gang members do so they found menace right around here beat him down put him in the trash can and then they will hammer. To this location here. Where they. Assault them sodomized them and torture im. Not concerned with people watching them commit crimes being prosecuted because. Theyll go after witnesses theyll intimidate them and if they have to the old even try to kill them you can see how theyre marking up their neighborhood as Village Voice. My personal opinion is a lot of gangs get a sympathetic ear to the general public and when the publics posed to exactly what these guys do. Then everyone agrees that we dont want to in our neighborhood. A doozy. Obviously its been challenging for you. And hard you know to lose a Family Member is very hard. He was a little bit drunk he drank that night and then the next morning me i didnt hear from him and i was a will and thats weird and im going to hes must be really mad at me and i didnt hear from him i didnt know what was going on and then they come up to me that and then and then ok whats going on why i mean what i do and then im like thinking like in my head like ok i havent done anything bad and i havent done anything that i can think of anything and asking all where we got last night and the 1st thing that pops into my head whats going on whats wrong with what you know i told him and he was he came is he in jail is he like her whats wrong with that like the last thing i thought of him was what was wrong with him you know in the last thing and then towards the end they tell me ok were going to meet up and. Who did we found his body. Dolphin after i heard was that i didnt hear anything else i thought they were lying they just like it would really make no more use going on its not true. You. Know and then i just dont remember anything after that after that i remember i was crying and they not believing it i still dont like to they dont really believe its going to combat that can be truly cannot be true but. They say it gets better i dont think that those are the ones rosie kings i was at for as we just everyone would say old he was young he was an even 21 year and eventually were going to move out on our own we have plans really happened shes awesome she looks like her which is what. I thought and i think when i look around i see him and i see a little bit of peace at him but its hard at the same time because i dont know why its just when were trying to get through the life we will never try for her like not to grow up here because you know what do you think he was raised here for him does was it for him this was basically it like thats been they never got out of here and i want to get out and i do her who is going to get i guess to her hes in the loop on through her because thats whats left of. Im. Back. Now to the basketball game a large crowd i hang around the parking lot so we were just there to disperse the crowd because when you get large crowds like that drinking nothing good ever happens from that so we were sent down there to make sure that he gets home safely. So thats where the big problem with the police that i was trying to make it away was we know kate is right. It was a more noble thing with the government but. To stop it currently is already roughly on the street. And nothing there was want to rest for one individual who didnt want to go along with the program so we had to rest im. Sure my little holy son does. This yet a doing. C. R. A. During. The night. Im not. The oldest brother to call it doesnt look this good i got a.

Took him down because he was talking down a freedom of speech you can say what you want to say and all right to put a man on you know as will go down around his son tom some time ago. As black Police Officer its definitely different. Than again i am in the Office Rather than a black Police Officer but its definitely different it works both ways some people some citizens are more comfortable talking to me because im black and some people think that i should give people a lot of breaks because im black you know i get down but tom think oh now that me so it is my pain a little more stressful being a black Police Officer down here but. I dont know i dont i actually like it i dont want to work in the other business like you know. Working in this area. To get out of my. The andre was on a run. He had got into a domestic dispute with the childs mother she knew he was on the run she still called the police are.

They go pick up the dog based on the metal back for the dog and all sentimental back foot if the kid is shaken on the ground they still come up with their guns pointed at him like as if hes going to get up hes not going to get up after that nobodys going to have to get shot 88 times they reported 23 shots he was shot 88 times in his body. Right now theres a small little war. In the tween the bounty hunters and great story. We could be eating as minor as a girl because somebody took somebody elses girl so. Somebody gets shot in the war breaks out. You know in the past gang members would do was you know they committed drive by they would ask you where youre from and if you gave out the wrong answer. They kill you now. When a gang member commits a drive by or walk up and while someone where youre from doesnt matter what your answer is you can get killed anyway there is no correct answer and i dont know why that started or where that came from but. Nowadays if. A gang member asked where youre from listening to his run because going to shop. The gangs are in the schools and theres not a lot of Police Presence in the school so they basically have free reign there. And it starts off when theyre young you know you get the little youngsters out there fighting in the schools. And it spills onto the streets and you know the teachers are out there trying to do the best job they can but its just a its a tough environment and you have the good kids that are actually trying to get education and theyve got to deal with all the gang feuds that are going on. In the schools. A lot of our students come from Single Family homes and a large majority of our students around 70 percent of my kids are actually coming from foster homes every kid wants to learn and i dont think that any one of our kids comes with the intention to gangbang every single day thats not part of their agenda. This is the make or door that my kids exit to get home avalon boulevard is the street that they have to cross over anything cross over walk down to get to the train station or get down to their homes across avalon boulevard and sometimes kids feel unsafe. Like high schools run about 7 to 20 years gangs so the dangers that we face that kids come into from school so we have a Safe Passage Program which consist of Law Enforcement charity Public Safety which in our pipes cuniform that actually do security on campus and off campus and our Community Gang in a bid to workers who are former gang members that change their lives and they kind of help us with a safe passage say fasces a 1000 feet from the school so our jurisdiction far has been the security on campus we could at least 1000 feet from the school. We work in concert with l. A. P. D. And a loss as county sheriff on a side track campus. We are Security Officers are allowed to carry handguns pepper spray and firearms if we was a see somebody attacking a kid we will definitely jump out and stop that person from attacking a kid and yes we can detain him in holding the l. A. P. D. Gets. We have had kids get shot you know come to school the 1st that was the 2nd year that we was here with green dad the kids walking the school and. You guys walked up to him and and shot him he was a former gay member that was trying to get his life together he was trying to you know. Get a good education but you know. As a gang member you know even though you. Try to do the right ok and look at it like that. The. L. A. P. D. Did a perimeter and they was actually because we. Was actually able to make an arrest. Right here in l. A. You never know this. Is. A moment so some days days be. Happening some days you know its just. Here. Going into high school i went to morningstar high school and california. I can remember being around the age of 15 or 16 or we started becoming active gang members after high school ive experienced dayton a socalled enemy and 97 was about 18 and experiencing that situation and having it revealed in front of my homeboys. Almost cost me my life and saying that i remember was 97 and maybe 2 weeks before my graduation one of my homeboys close to me. Wanted to kill me and it was like a dark night i just remember it was kind of dark and it was one light twitching and within that light that was tick you know twitching like i remember looking across the street and it was one of my homeboys from my neighborhood had a trench coat on and he walked up towards me and i remember him telling me i was and i said well were here to see me and he put out the 45 and he put it to my face and. With that within that quick 2nd i snoozed the gun very familiar gun i seen all the bullets and the barrel. And he Start Talking crazy he was on the Start Talking crazy talking about you know i should be smoked because im dana enemy and i understand i know the protocol for females you know like you dont date enemies you dont date other fools from other neighborhoods i think the guys can probably get away with it but for females no and so because i did date somebody from another neighborhood it almost cost my life. He pulled the trigger but it was like a spiritual thing that happened that i cant explain till this day i mean for me i think it was god that was my transition of changing because when he pulled the trigger the barrel moved but noble is didnt come out and i blacked out and when i blacked out i remember fallen in his black tunnel i thought i was shot in the hit i thought i was going to hell because i was and i was in this black tunnel falling and then finally i was just looking back and im like where am i like i did all radio was going on im going to hell and i remember start i started to pray off father to hell mary because this is things that i kind of remember from catechism and i said you know what ive said a lot but its better to go on and pray and just hope that the lord you know forgive me for my sins and i move forward and i remember looking back as i fall in this tunnel it was the virgin marys hands and i accepted my death and when i accepted my dead i was back and im Still Standing up the person still pull in the trigger and the bullets are not even coming out and its clicking. And then my mom comes finally he runs and my mom just pulls up and im just shocked like oh my god i could have my brains landed on the floor 2 weeks before graduation. You know its difficult to get in and out of South Central los angeles and its its just a violent area that the level of violence that people live with is an example entirely unacceptable when i was a little girl my parents took me to vietnam when i was in saigon during the tet offensive i was not as afraid inside down with bombs dropping every day from dusk till dawn as i was when i came back to los angeles because i was the victim in los angeles i didnt feel like i was a victim in vietnam and the level of violence i feel is just the same really even though they dont declare it to be a war zone it is the worst. Cameras in the Public Housing developments there was great disdain the folks in the community didnt want the cameras there theres already bars on the windows and some of the developments and the Community Perspective was were already living in a prison when you drive by our community it looks like a prison and now youre adding video cameras and now youre watching us and think brothers are always watching this we just want to feel like were a normal community but on the other hand the cameras have been extremely successful as it relates to long for some and a witness intimidation weve had some murders occur inside jordan downs and caught them on video where we didnt have to ask a Community Member to put their life in danger and testify because we got it all on video so i think now that its grown on the community and they realize that were utilizing it not to suppress them but to help them its been extremely successful.
