💥 JUST IN: Vice-Mayor asks gangs to get involved in going up against ICE in LA
The FBI is investigating an LA County politician for allegedly urging 18th Street Gang and Florencia 13 to ‘protect our turf’ from ICE, per report. The gangs are linked to drug trafficking, robbery, and violent crimes, says Justice Department.
The Los Angeles Police Protective League (LAPPL), which represents nearly 9,000 members of the LAPD, is calling for the resignation and possible prosecution of Cudahy Vice-Mayor Cynthia Gonzalez following what they described as a “shameful social media video post.”
The video advocates for local street gangs to confront peace officers, urging leaders of The 18th Street and Florencia street gangs to “get your f—ing members in order,” the LAPPL said in a statement Wednesday.
“The 18th Street and Florencia street gangs are notoriously dangerous Los Angeles-based criminal enterprises,” a portion of the LAPPL’s statement reads. “They rule their ‘turfs’ through intimidation, violence, and murder, and finance their operations through the sale of narcotics and illegal firearms, prostitution, and protection rackets.”
