  8. The impact of Mexican cartels in United States and the influence they hold Mexican cartels can be considered an organized crime organization similar to how an Italian or an Irish mob works. These organized crime groups operate globally, engaging in a variety of illegal activities such as drug trafficking, money laundering and human trafficking. Comparing the influence between many organized crime organizations, Cartels have their dominance domestically on their home turf along with internationally. Many ask on how they're able to accomplish that. The main way is through targeting and exploiting minority groups for financial gain along with fear. Cartels are ruthless compared to others and are not afraid to bring blood into the conversation. As many know, Italian Mob along with Irish are known to be defunct around the United States. However, Cartels are still proactively seen through the nation on both West and East coast. To gain influence over police and other law enforcement agencies, courts and correctional institutions, cartels often attempt to bribe officials and, in some cases, even place their own members in positions of power. This strategy enables cartels to gain long-term influence within these organizations. Cartel activities within the United States are often done through other groups. They create a relationship within the American streets such as various gangs to proactively push their narcotics, extortion, and many other activities. Due to this reason, it is sometimes hard for officer, deputies, or even agents to detect cartel influence within those groups due to the obvious reasons of them having their own motives for financial gain. The most popular is the Sinaloa Cartel, who are an extensive organization in Mexico, and also hold a network for smaller organizations such as gangs to work underneath then. Even though, the local and the US government tried to cease their activities. The cartel still remain powerful due to its international influence, along with having control over the upper echelons of the Mexican government. This allows them to have a more structured and organized approach to their issues. Furthermore, another thing that many need to recognize is that they have extensive influence over 50 countries. Cartels tend to recruit people within the United States and directly target violent American gangs such as Bloods, the Crips, 18th Street, and Aryan Brotherhood to work both sides of the United States and Mexican border. These links are the most influenced around Texas, California, and Washington DC. Law enforcement agencies have to use a lot of time and resources to combat cartel activities. In addition to that, they fail majority of the times due to the fear of giving out information. Some of the tactics that LEO agencies use are investigations, arrests, confiscating illicit assets, and even lying to gain any forms of information. Drug cartels post a threat to both law enforcement and communities within the USA, through drugs and violence. Their operations have put many lives in danger, along with local authorities and communities having a bad relationship over the matters. There has been a surge of addiction rates, overdoses, and drug-related criminal activities due to the distribution and the scale of influence that these cartels hold.

  9. More recent footage has recently surfaced the internet of a supposed Gang related shooting near the Ganton 24/7. The car nor the shooters have been identified, and eye witnesses claim the car was a tan colour Tahoma, but no registration was seen on it. During the shooting it has been reported that several shouting and screaming occured, one of the most common being something along the lines "Niner Gang" as witnesses report. The shooting happened on the 19th of March 2017 at roughly 7:40 PM. The footage was recorded on a damaged CCTV Camera which was mounted on the corner of the Ganton 24/7. The owner of the shop said "I ran out as soon as I heard the gun shots. The car was coming right towards me and I thought I was going to die. Luckily he spared me and drove past. But what he left behind was horrendous. A blood bath right opposite my store at the blue projects. It was a horrible sight". Local law enforcement advises people to stay inside after about 8PM due to an increase in crime around Southern Ganton. The LSPD is currently on the search for the Tan Tahoma and asks anyone who see's it to instantly call 911. ORIGINAL NINERS "Niner Gang" Was formed originally in the early 2010's by the unity of 3 local Ganton street crews ranging in ethnicity. Initially the crew united under the "NINER" banner which comprised of Mexicans, Blacks & Whites due to rising local tensions between other crews which led to this new found unity. The original "South Ganton Niners" were led by 3 OG's, each running their own crew. Generally lacking in numbers the three crews maintaing control over 2 project blocks, frequently slinging drugs in front of the local 24/7. This became increasingly difficult when opposing gangs began competing for the same spot. This led to many deaths & arrests leaving all the original OG's dead or in jail. The inevitable downfall of many Original members resulted in younger members taking over the same spots in attempt to fill the vacuum. During this time the Niner's had gained control of that Hyatt Park neighbourhood. Despite the gain in turf the young clique still had many local gangs/street crews still hunting for them. This made it more difficult to make money, hang around outside. The Original sets faced many struggles throughout 2015-2017 despite being around for such a long time, their turf was still regularly contested. The gang continued making most of it's money through selling drugs and occasionally dealing arms locally. Most crimes were petty and despite seeming organised, lacked integral structure and order. Many internal conflicts led to already dwindling numbers diminishing even further. A tight knit circle still remained, and the once somewhat powerful street crew became obsolete. NINER FUNCTION The NINER FUNCTION is a set formed out of Crystal Gardens & West Grove, representing the ORIGINAL NINERS. Surviving members found themselves in Crystal Garden's where a new set was formed. It's a coalition of older & newer members that rose to strength prominently in the late 2019's. This newer younger collective quickly rose to power in the local area, frequently supplying arms & narcotics to locals. The new group undertook several hierarchal changes, many members had been given specific roles within the gang and through this newly found structure, the gang was able to hold a united front. This gave the new generation NINERS a chance to seize more power of the local area which they did, ultimately attracting an increasing amount of law enforcement to their neighbourhoods. ((Thread is currently a work in progress, still trying to figure out how to use this new forums! Any help via DM would be greatly appreciated, for now this is all we've got!))
