Voice. And then they continued to torture him then they wrapped him up in a rug burned them 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 fall menace right around here beat them down put them in the trash can and then they will hammer. To this location here. With a murder and assault them sodomized them and torture. Theyre not concerned with people watching them commit crimes or being prosecuted because of that. Theyll go after witnesses theyll intimidate them and if they have to the old will even try to kill them you can see how theyre marking up their neighborhood t. V. s as village voice. My personal opinion is a lot of gangs get a sympathetic ear to the general public and when the public. Both to exactly what these guys do. And then everyone agrees that we dont want to in our neighborhood. We. Made it easy. 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 like you 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 the 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 whole you know whats going on whats wrong with what you know i told him that 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 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 did it really make no more yes or no its not true. You. Know and then i just dont remember anything after that after that i remember was crying crying and not believing it still and i dont really believe its going to compound that can be truly cannot be true but. They say it gets better to get those winds rosie kings i was it for as we just everyone would say old he was young he wasnt even 21 good and eventually were going to move out on our own we have plans really help and shes awesome she looks like her which is what. I thought and i think when i look around i see him with a little bit of peace in him but its hard at the same time because i dont know why its just were trying to get through the life we were never try for her like not to grow up you know because you know what do you think he was raised here for him does was it for him this was basically like thats it they never got out of here and i want was he 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. Primaries. Are out. There. Right now to back. Up a basketball game a large crowd hanging 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. We only want to. So thats where. The ponies thought i was trying to make. His life there. Was some more noble thing with the help and good. To stop it. Just literally rough treatment 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 one is only. The cia doing. The c. R. A. Doing. It would not. For me not. Just look at to all of that you look at this guy they got a. Good look at it look at us they think they tell us they came in a scuffle. Took him down because he was talking. Say what you want to say and all right to put a hand on him you know as will go down around his son tom some time ago. As a black Police Officer its definitely different. When again i am bringing the officer other than the 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 double 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 why but i actually like it i dont want to work in the other business like you know. Working in this area. Are you prepared to give up on the andrea was on the 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. Not taking anything the same thing negative about her so he fled to the house that was down the street so he gets into a standoff what i would say about. 1520 sheriffs officers if you feel you know you are bad bad bad. Bad you know. That one of those nannies you know you know you do where you feel like that like you really think. That if. You get.

Light you youre kind of a go. But. You are so good. They released the dog when they released the dog. He jumps up to protect itself from getting bit like anybody would to shield themselves from getting bit so he gets up with a shoe in his hand he throws it if you. Know. When this motion happens going to pop pop pop pop pop. It was a sure. You. Got the commander in a bag i didnt tell any. By to sure i never gave that order to go to. The unknowing club you know. They go pick up the dog they send a medal back for the dog and all sentimental back for that the kid has shaken on to ground they still come out with their guns pointed at him like as if hes going to get up hes not going to give up after that nobodys going to get up out again shot 88 times they reported 23 shots he was shot 88 times in his body but youre. Right now theres a small little war. In which we in the bounty hunters great story. We could be anything as minor as a girl because somebody took somebody elses girl so. Somebody gets shot no more breaks out. You know in the past the gang members would do as you know they committed drive by they would ask you where youre from and if you gave the wrong answer. They kill you now. Want to gang member going to drive by or a walk up and well someone where youre from doesnt. What your answer is you can get killed anyway there is no correct answer and i know why that started or where that came from but. Nowadays in. A gang member asked where youre from boston do is run because going to shot. 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 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 to make sure that my kids exit to get home avalon boulevard is the street that they have to cross over any of the crossover walk down to get to train station to get down to their homes across avalon boulevard and sometimes kids go. And see. What high schools run about 7 to 20 years gangs. That we face that kids come in to and from school so we have a Safe Passage Program which consist of Law Enforcement c. R. C. Public safety which in our pipes create a form that actually do security on campus and off campus and our Community Gang innovator workers who are former gang members that change their lives and they kind of help us with a safe passage safe passes 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 and cuss pepper spray and firearms we was a see somebody at 2nd kid we will definitely jump out and stop that person from attacking the 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 dot kids walking the school and. You guys walked up to him. 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 and but you know you already been tagged as a gang member you know even though you try to turn your life around and try to do right ok and look at it like that so much. The chase the guy who actually shot him cornered him in a back yard l. A. P. D. Came to the perimeter and they was actually because we saw the guy that l. A. P. D. Was actually able to make an arrest. Right here in l. A. You never know somethings going to happen his. Days have been spared a moment so some days days be real cool and Nothing Happened and then some days you know its as soon i guess war 3 out here. So starting going into high school i went to morningstar high school and inglewood 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 it was 97 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 to you know twitching like i remember looking across the street and it was one of my homeboys from my neighborhood at a trench coat on and he walked up towards me and i remember him telling me i was and i said well well sub you here to see me and he pulled out the 45 and he put it to my face and. What that what then that quick 2nd i snooped the gun very smooth 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 small 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 who 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 no bullets didnt come out and i blacked out and when i blacked out i remember fallen in his black tunnel i thought i. Shot in the hit. I thought i was going to hell because i was in 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 that all father to hell mary because this is things that i kind of remember from catechism and i said you know what ive done live but its better to go on and pray and just hope that the lord you know forgives 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 dad 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 laddered 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 unacceptable 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 in saigon 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 a war zone. Cameras in the Public Housing developments there was great distain the folks in the community didnt want the cameras there theres already bars on the windows and some of the developments in the Community Perspective was already low. Being 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 being brothers 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 Law Enforcement and a witness intimidation weve had some murders occur inside jordan downs and caught them on video to where we dont 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. The. City are. Going to i dont mean this is no youve done it sunk in something that you dont want 100 might have to guess i mean dont we. Learn the. Box weve got drinks time ill mean i. Dont. Think. Thats. Very uncertain. World cup and the baby had a fever of 38 so point 30 were hoping that. Because i can take your. Greetings and sell you take shouldnt. It appears my friends that the dream of the United States we all grew up learning about is now nothing more than the burning final embers of the once powerful fire i say that because according to reuters the guardian and many other News Agencies the United States of america and its representatives have been running a no prisoners winner take all style approach to Global Medical supplies since finally taking the covert 19 pandemic seriously a few weeks back reuters reports that from europe
