2022-01-14 -War on Police-
LA cops go over woke DA George Gascon's head and get feds to file murder charges against four F13 gang members 'who killed off-duty officer' over fears his liberal reforms would have resulted in lenient sentences
[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News]
  • The charges come with enhancements that would potentially see the gang members serve life in prison - the same enhancements Garcon has scrapped

  • Sheriff Alex Villanueva went over the head of Los Angeles' progressive DA George Gascón, who is against such enhanced sentencing

  • Villanueva told the media he had tried to consult with Gascon's office but found his response 'not satisfactory.'

  • Officer Fernando Arroyos, 27, was fatally shot at about 9:15 p.m. Monday in an unincorporated area of south Los Angeles County

  • The suspects allegedly targeted him because of two silver chains or necklaces around his neck, authorities said

  • Murder convictions are generally sentenced to 25 to life in California, but gang members can be sentenced to life without parole

F13 GANG IS LINKED TO DRUG SMUGGLING, ASSAULTS AND MURDERS
The Florencia 13 gang linked to Officer Fernando Arroyos' killing has been linked to numerous serious crimes, including at least 17 murders.

F13 are named after the Florence area of LA, which is controlled by the Mexican mafia. Most of its members are Mexican-American.

LA cops found the gang was attacking and killing African-Americans purely on the basis of race.

They launched Operation Joker's Wild to try and stem the killings, while also tackling the gang's drug trafficking and extortion.

Operation Joker's Wild culminated in 102 F13 gang members being named in indictments in 2007 - the largest gang bust in US history at the time.

A total of 96 members were taken into custody, 94 of whom admitted their crimes or pleaded guilty.

Making them White Mexican Americans not Latinx?
