life survival & murder Posted 7 hours ago Share Posted 7 hours ago IT ALL BEGAN IN 1957 AT THE DEUEL VOCATIONAL INSTITUTION (DVI) in Tracy, California, five years before Rene Enriquez was even born. That lockup was then considered the last stop for the state’s most incorrigible and violent juvenile inmates. It was in effect a junior prison. Those who were too difficult to handle in reform school were sent to the California Youth Authority (CYA), and those too violent for CYA ended up at DVI. At the time, it was often referred to as “Gladiator School,” a place where already tormented teenagers honed their criminal skills and acted out against rivals from enemy barrios. As the Mexican population grew in southern California, so did a barrio culture that spawned street gangs with traditional rivalries, neighbor hood against neighborhood. Deadlier and deadlier gangs were formed to protect home turf. They called themselves vatos locos, crazy dudes. In his book Mexican Mafia: Altar Boy to Hitman, former Eme member Ramon “Mundo” Mendoza says, “The more aggressive gang members went about the serious business of establishing violent reputations. Along with the reps came the celebrity status. A completely abnormal social value system was established.”* Some of the gang members, in honor of their ancient Aztec or Toltec roots, or even the more recent Apache and Yaquis tribes, took on Indian warrior names such as Caballo, Chato, Crazy Horse, Crow, Cuchillo, Geronimo, and Indio. Others adopted more modern gangster handles like * Ramon “Mundo” Mendoza, Mexican Mafia: From Altar Boy to Hitman (Los Angeles: self published, 2005), p. 15. THE BLACK HAND 5 Shotgun, Machine Gun, and Capone. In either case, the names were ad opted out of pride to generate fear and respect. At DVI, sixteen-year-old Luis “Huero Buff ” Flores of Hawaiian Gar dens, a Los Angeles suburb, is credited with coming up with the idea of uniting all the Mexican-American southern California gangs into one big prison “super gang” or “gang of gangs.” Together they would cease Mexican street gang rivalries inside prison, control the heroin trafficking, protect themselves against unruly prison guards, and unite as brothers (carnales) against rival black and white inmates. Mundo Mendoza observes: “These guys were raging maniacs whose modus operandi was ‘all offense, no de fense.’ They were extremely aggressive, had no respect for their adversar ies, and unabated disdain and contempt for the general population. We felt bulletproof.” Prison lore has it that Huero Buff was fascinated with the power and mystique of the Italian Mafia and dubbed the new group the Mexican Mafia, or La Familia Mexicana. There were about a dozen original members, who quickly doubled their ranks and terrorized other inmates, stealing their possessions, mostly canteen items and drugs. Mundo Mendoza notes, “The goal in the beginning was to terrorize the prison system and enjoy prison comforts while doing time.” Those who resisted Eme extortion were beaten or stabbed. Huero Buff later said, “It was a kid’s trip then, just a branch of homeboys from East L.A. If I felt like killing somebody, I would, if I didn’t, I wouldn’t. We were just having fun then. The power was intoxicating.”* The majority of the early members did come from East Los Angeles gangs with violent reputations: Hoyo Soto Maravilla, Varrio Nuevo Es trada, White Fence, Big Hazard, Clover, and the Avenues. Everyone was recruited for their fearlessness, aggressiveness, and ruthlessness. Each can didate had to be sponsored by a “made member” and voted in by the entire group. All were supposedly equal in status, were sworn to secrecy about La Eme’s existence, pledged their allegiance for life, vowed to kill for the orga nization, and promised never to show fear, weakness, hesitation, or doubt. Any infraction would be punishable by death. Memorable names of Eme pioneers include: Mike “Hatchet” Ison, Eddie “Potato Nose” Loera, Jesus “Liro” Pedroza, Alejandro “Hondo” Lechuga, Gabriel “Little Sluggo” Casteneda, Benjamin “Topo” Peters, Joe “Colorado” Arias, and Richard “Richie” Ruiz. Rodolfo “Cheyenne” Cadena, who at the age of fifteen stabbed a local gang rival to death outside a dance hall in * Quoted in Mendoza, Mexican Mafia, p. 16. 6 CHRIS BLATCHFORD Bakersfield, is widely known as a cofounder of the Mexican Mafia. He was only five-foot-four and weighed 120 pounds, but he was a handsome, natu ral leader with tremendous energy, high intelligence, a hair-trigger temper, and undisputed presence. He suggested that the word “Eme” be used along with the term “Mexican Mafia.” It added a Spanish f lavor for those who still bickered over the name, believing it was too much like the Italians. Also, Eme could be used as a code word around prison guards and others unfamiliar with the language. By 1961, administrators at DVI, alarmed by the escalating violence, had transferred a number of the charter Eme members to San Quentin, hoping to discourage their violent behavior by intermingling them with hardened adult convicts. It didn’t work. For example, the story goes that Cheyenne Cadena arrived on the lower yard and was met by a six-foot-five, 300-pound black inmate who planted a kiss on his face and announced that this scrawny teenager would now be his “bitch.” Chy returned a short time later, walked up to the unsuspecting predator, and stabbed him to death with a jailhouse knife, or shank. There were more than a thousand inmates on the yard. No witnesses stepped forward, and only one dead man entertained the idea that Cadena was any one’s bitch.* Other young Eme members at San Quentin continued their reign of terror. A pair of Mafia killers, for no apparent reason, stabbed a stunned Robert “Bobby Loco” Lopez, who staggered across the upper yard, hit the pavement in convulsions, and died. A few days later, the deadly duo stabbed another clueless inmate. Eme’s Alfredo “Cuate” Jimenez killed another convict on the lower yard, and Mike “Hatchet” Ison took out another in the prison gymnasium. Tony Chacon was from Lopez Maravilla, the largest gang in East L.A. at the time; it also had the largest number of inmates in the state prison system. Chacon made the mistake of badmouthing the Mexican Mafia. So Eme hit men Richie Ruiz and Eddie “Pelon” Moreno took him out in the San Quentin Adjustment Center, a unit that housed the worst of prison bad guys. Charlie White was a black inmate upset about Eme bullying tactics. He shouted obscenities at Eme stalwarts locked up in their cells, singling out Hondo Lechuga. Those who fought with their mouths from behind closed cell doors were derisively called “cell soldiers.” 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stylebender Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago First concept where I'd love to see this one a sticky thread. The realism, the culture and everything is on point, beside the fact that you guys are doing a great job of representing the illegal side of the roleplay, just go far with it... 2 📌The Little Snake 📌The Prince Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
