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.

The lure of quick money, power, and the romance of the criminal lifestyle was attractive to both second-generation Jewish and Italian immigrants. There was a supposed Jewish "crime wave" in early 20th century New York. In disturbing numbers, young Jews had joined crime "rackets", it was said, along with children of Irish, Italian and other immigrants. However, the supposed Jewish-immigrant crime wave may have been exaggerated by the press and law enforcement. Crime and population figures show that Jews in New York committed crimes at a rate far below the average for the wider society. As described by sociologist Stephen Steinberg, less than a sixth of the city's felony arrests were Jews during the 1920s, when Jews constituted nearly a third of the city's population. Several notable Jewish-American mobsters provided financial support for Israel through donations to Jewish organizations since the country's creation in 1948. Jewish-American gangsters used Israel's Law of Return to flee criminal charges or face deportation. Notables include Joseph "Doc" Stacher, who built up Las Vegas by pairing the Jewish and Italian Mafia into a national organized crime syndicate. Prime Minister Golda Meir set out to reverse this trend in 1970, when she denied entrance to Meyer Lansky. In 2010, it was reported by leaks that the United States Embassy in Israel, in a cable titled "Israel: The Promised Land of Organized Crime?", had expressed grave concern about the activities of Israeli organized crime figures, and was taking measures to prevent members of crime families from being issued visas to the United States. American diplomats expressed concern that Inbal Gavrieli, the niece of one of Israel's most powerful mafia bosses, had been elected to the Knesset as an MK for Likud. The Trabelsi Organization is an Israeli organized crime syndicate that has been active in Israel since the late 20th and in America since early 21st century. The organization was founded by brothers Yaacov and Avraham Trabelsi, of Moroccan Jewish origin, in the city of Netanya, Israel, in the 1990s. The Trabelsi Organization is involved in a wide range of criminal activities, including drug trafficking, money laundering, and extortion. One of the hallmarks of the Trabelsi Organization is its use of violence to maintain its position within the criminal underworld. The organization is known for its ruthless tactics, and its members are responsible for numerous murders and other violent crimes. Despite its reputation for violence, the Trabelsi Organization is also known for its sophisticated approach to criminal activity. The organization was highly organized and had a complex structure that allowed it to operate in multiple countries around the world.

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!))

Criminal Division, Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs (OMGs) Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs (OMGs) are organizations whose members use their motorcycle clubs as conduits for criminal enterprises. OMGs are highly structured criminal organizations whose members engage in criminal activities such as violent crime, weapons trafficking, and drug trafficking. There are more than 300 active OMGs within the United States, ranging in size from single chapters with five or six members to hundreds of chapters with thousands of members worldwide. The Hells Angels, Mongols, Bandidos, Outlaws, and Sons of Silence pose a serious national domestic threat and conduct the majority of criminal activity linked to OMGs, especially activity relating to drug-trafficking and, more specifically, to cross-border drug smuggling. Because of their transnational scope, these OMGs are able to coordinate drug smuggling operations in partnership with major international drug-trafficking organizations (DTOs). Seeker's Motorcycle Club Seeker's Outlaw Motorcycle Gang had its inception in late 1960 in San Fierro city by mostly belligerent social outcasts finding comradeship among Chopper motorcyclists, they developed a small scale homegrown club after adopting the name and wearing a patch on cut-offs. Although miniscule in manpower when in comparison to other already well established OMGs, members of the Seeker's double down in acts of violence in order to guard their territory and revenue in narcotics trade, racketeering and in particular illegal firearms trafficking. Following the conclusion of the 1975 Vietnam War saw to a mighty boost in Seeker's manpower, Vietnam veterans who felt ousted by society and left stranded by the government were drawn to the social outcasts in Seekers and their violent means to take what they want. In retrospect the Seeker's heartedly welcomed Vietnam veterans for their solid but ruthless mentality, befitting of the outlaw world. In 1977 the second first chapter took off in Angel Pine, Whetstone. And the third chapter opened up in Bay Side, Tierra Robada in 1982. The Angel Pine Seeker's encroached on Renegades territory when opening up on the other side of Angel Pine opposite of theirs, igniting a war that would last until 2004 when the Renegades disbanded as defunct after suffering most losses and federal infiltration. Drastic dwindling in membership following hard-hitting law enforcement raids in the 1990s saw to the incarceration of many high profile Seeker's veterans in officer ranks, the remaining Seeker's adopted an intense traditional nomadic doctrine to shelter from indictments and federal infiltration. Predating primarily on convicts and felons within low-income white society to draw in recruits, the Seeker's run a tight-ship of which they base their operations out of wherever they are able to setup quarters for a time being. As a consequence to Seeker's violently cruel nature, from 1990 to 2001 the federal government concluded several raids on Seeker's OMG, rapidly weakening the club with dwindling membership and incarcerating several high profile members. The Seeker's went from 3 full fledged chapters in San Andreas state to the singular San Fierro one they still retain to this day with respectable manpower. They are entrenched in outlaw politics validating their relevance in the OMG scene, and deeply interwoven in Drug Trafficking Organizations. These connections allowed the mother chapter to send out an expeditionary, nomad-like group of made members into neighboring Los Santos, where they aim to setup shop. Not a common sight to behold for uninvolved bystanders, members of the club conduct their business in the far shadows of society. Federal law enforcement discerned in a discovery that; Seeker's abide by an unerring set of authoritarian by-laws, of which ties each member to an expected standard. One of the bylaws in particular mentioning; forbidding members to unveil club related insignia when not around other members, while inside vehicles that isn't their own bike, or while doing illegal business with people outside of the club. Members found out to have violated these set rules can become victim of violent beatings or even killings. Ex-members who have been kicked out of the club, or have abandoned their creed, are viewed as "out-bad" and are subject to violent acts or murder. Seeker's in Crime Shady Creeks, Whetstone (June 5, 1988) A fight breaks out between local off duty law enforcement and members of Seeker's motorcycle club in a local roadside bar. With two off duty Sheriff's deputies sustaining concussions from head trauma and three Seeker's arrested. Blueberry, Red County (September 14, 1990) Local Sheriff's department disrupt a Seeker's hosted beach party assembly with close associates and club supporters. With several apprehended and no arrests made, indirectly contributing to Seeker's gaining local notoriety and a boom in recruitment. Angel Pine, Whetstone (August 6, 1991) Renegades motorcycle club clubhouse is targeted in a bombing perpetrated by members of Seeker's motorcycle club. The explosion left two bystanders dead, with two Renegades supporters wounded and another three Renegades members killed. Seeker's members Aaron Fisher and Otto Wright were arrested the following week by local law enforcement. Angel Pine, Whetstone (April 28, 1992) Federal law enforcement agents in joint operation with local Sheriff's Department raid Seeker's Angel Pine clubhouse and seize two ounces of methamphetamines, marijuana, multiple small arms and two sub-machine gun. Twelve Seeker's are arrested including president Larry 'Snout' Schnauzer. Rendering the Whetstone chapter obsolete. Hashburry, San Fierro (November 3, 1993) Two members of the Seeker's motorcycle club and siblings Nathan and Adam Loveland were arrested on illegal firearm and narcotics charges, following San Fierro Police Department raid and seizure of 22.5 pounds of methamphetamines and two small arms handguns. The two brothers were setup in a law enforcement sting operation in a staged narcotics sales pitch. Ordered held without bail, the two brothers await court hearing scheduled for December 27, 1993. Calton Heights, San Fierro (December 4, 2007) Seeker's vice president Harry Olsen, aka, 'Dirty Boy' is arrested in his home early in the morning by A.T.F agents on several criminal charges, including the kidnapping and murder of late Renegades motorcycle club president Jeffery Kuklinski. Kuklinski had been found decapitated inside Olsen's basement in a freezer, Olsen had been preparing to dispose of the body later that night.

|| Rīga, Latvia — 1990s to 2000s 90's - 2000's in Rīga, Latvija. After the fall of the Soviet Union, the iron curtain was melted down and sold in many ways modern people could not imagine. People were stealing left and right whatever was left behind in production facilities, free-market was born and so was racketeering. Racketeering was so widespread in the streets of Rīga, that it was impossible to operate a business without a roof. Gang shootouts in the center of the city happened time by time, crazy times. It was a battleground for Russian, Chechen, Armenian and Latvian criminals altogether. Cigarette trade from Belarus peeked, as it was very valuable. Old leftovers from the soviet army were dealt even more. It was possible to buy an AK for a bottle of vodka. Many boxers were dragged into this world, as they had power in knuckles and could be worthy racketeers. || Los Santos — The Return The streets of Los Santos have always been a battleground for power, but one organization has remained quietly influential—an underground network built by the Baltic Mafia. This is not just a story about violence or crime, but one of brotherhood, loyalty, and calculated moves that have kept the Baltic presence alive, even when faced with the most extreme opposition. Leading this resurgence is Renars Laubergs, a name once feared, now reborn. In the early 2019, Renars Laubergs, alongside Intars Lidaka, Janis Piebalgs, and Maris Finieris, made East Beach the epicenter of the Baltic Mafia’s activities. They weren’t just criminals—they were tacticians. Specializing in drug trafficking, loansharking and extortion. Renars and his crew operated smoothly under the radar of the authorities. Renars was known for his sharp mind, ability to stay calm under pressure, and his crew's deep loyalty to him. But everything changed when Maris made a move that would shake their foundation. Attempting to kill a detective who had been investigating the Baltic Mafia for years, Maris triggered an all-out war with the police. It wasn’t long before the streets of Los Santos were crawling with undercover agents and tactical units hunting them down. Knowing the heat was too intense to continue business as usual, Renars made the tough decision to lay low. He took a portion of his loyal crew and returned to the motherland. There, they regrouped, reconnected with old contacts, and bided their time. | Laubergskaya Lives After years of staying off the radar, Renars Laubergs returned to Los Santos. The streets may have calmed down, but the ambition remained. The downfall of Maris and others left a vacuum in the city's underworld—one that Renars intends to fill it. With years of experience, a tighter crew, and new connections from overseas, Renars is ready to rebuild the Baltic Empire, one step at a time. He returned not as a man looking for revenge, but with a clear vision: to rebuild the Baltic presence in Los Santos from the ground up, ensuring that this time, nothing would stand in his way—not the cops, not the competition, and certainly not the past. || ((OOC INFORMATION)) ((This is a crew operating under the Bellantonio Crime Family. We aim to provide high-quality character development and roleplay with a focus on organized crime blending into an Italian-American structure. )) PM @troubleman for more information or to get involved.

Paid & Laid INC. is a modernized twist on Black Organized Crime Roleplay. This concept aims to be ever-evolving and never stop in the comfort zones that other factions on the server have embraced, i.e. spamming the same screenshots of drug sales & posting up on a corner everyday. This group is an off-shoot of the Blanco—Longoria DTO and a part of an in-character Organized Crime Syndicate that has formed around Blanco—Longoria's operations, it's also one of the direct ways to get involved with the faction. Seeking us out ICly is the preferred method of joining, but due to timezones and other activity restrictions we encourage newcomers to give a heads-up through a forum PM to @Marco Polo.

Growing up in Tijuana, Ayala was exposed to the harsh realities of life in a city where chances were limited and the line between right and wrong was frequently blurred. The difficulties that many people in his society faced during his early years had an impact on him, where dreams occasionally took a back seat to survival. Hero to Zero Faustino Ayala was an elite military soldier known for his discipline and combat skills. After years of honorable service, he struggled to adjust to civilian life in crime-ridden Tijuana. Ayala quickly rose within a potent cartel by using his military experience to entice him with the allure of wealth and power. His transition from a respected soldier to a ruthless criminal was swift and violent, marking a tragic shift from his once-honorable life to one defined by crime and betrayal. The move to Los Santos After serving in the military, Faustino Ayala moved to Los Santos, seeking a fresh start. However, the transition was difficult, as the skills he had honed in the military drew him into the city's criminal underworld. In Los Santos, Ayala quickly adapted, using his experience to navigate the dangerous new environment, where he became entangled in organized crime. His move marked a turning point, leading him deeper into a life of violence and corruption far removed from his disciplined past.
