A Community Response
A Community Response Crime and Violence Prevention Center California Attorney General’s Office Bill Lockyer, Attorney General GANGS A COMMUNITY RESPONSE California Attorney General’s Office Crime and Violence Prevention Center June 2003 Introduction Gangs have spread from major urban areas in California to the suburbs, and even to our rural communities. Today, the gang life style draws young people from all walks of life, socio-economic backgrounds and races and ethnic groups. Gangs are a problem not only for law enforcement but also for the community. Drive-by shootings, carjackings, home invasions and the loss of innocent life have become too frequent throughout California, destroying lives and ripping apart the fabric of communities. As a parent, educator, member of law enforcement, youth or con- cerned community member, you can help prevent further gang violence by learning what a gang is, what the signs of gang involvement and gang activity are and what you can do to stem future gang violence. Gangs: A Community Response discusses the history of Califor- nia-based gangs, and will help you identify types of gangs and signs of gang involvement. This booklet includes information on what you and your community can do to prevent and decrease gang activity. It is designed to answer key questions about why kids join gangs and the types of gang activities in which they may be involved. It suggests actions that concerned individuals, parents, educators, law enforcement, community members and local government officials can take and provides additional resource information. Our hope is that this booklet will give parents, educators, law enforcement and other community members a better understand- ing of the gang culture and provide solutions to help prevent young people from joining gangs and help them to embark on a brighter future. -

Mara Salvatrucha: the Most Dangerous Gang in America
Mara Salvatrucha: The Deadliest Street Gang in America Albert DeAmicis July 31, 2017 Independent Study LaRoche College Mara Salvatrucha: The Deadliest Street Gang in America Abstract The following paper will address the most violent gang in America: Mara Salvatrucha or MS-13. The paper will trace the gang’s inception and its development exponentially into this country. MS-13’s violence has increased ten-fold due to certain policies and laws during the Obama administration, as in areas such as Long Island, New York. Also Suffolk County which encompasses Brentwood and Central Islip and other areas in New York. Violence in these communities have really raised the awareness by the Trump administration who has declared war on MS-13. The Department of Justice under the Trump administration has lent their full support to Immigration Custom Enforcement (ICE) to deport these MS-13 gang members back to their home countries such as El Salvador who has been making contingency plans to accept this large influx of deportations of MS-13 from the United States. It has been determined by Garcia of Insight.com that MS-13 has entered into an alliance with the security threat group, the Mexican Mafia or La Eme, a notorious prison gang inside the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. The Mexican Drug Trafficking Organization [Knights Templar] peddles their drugs throughout a large MS-13 national network across the country. This MS-13 street gang is also attempting to move away from a loosely run clique or clikas into a more structured organization. They are currently attempting to organize the hierarchy by combining both west and east coast MS-13 gangs. -

In an unusual collaborative effort, researchers worked with former gang members to make contact with and interview members of various "cliques" (cohorts) of the White Fence and El Hoyo Maravilla gangs (male gangs), as well as female gangs in the same neighborhoods. Interviews were conducted with 156 adult men and women; about 40 percent had joined the gangs in the 1940s and early 1950s, while the rest had been'active in recent years. Data are set in the context of economic and social chaages in the barrios between the 1950s and the 1970s-80s. Data reveal that in the later era, gangs had become more institutionalized, were more influential in members' lives, and had become more deviant. -
