Anti-Defamation League Sounds Warning About White Supremacists in Mo. Prisons
February 26, 2015 10:42 AM

ST. LOUIS (KMOX) – The Anti-Defamation League says it’s a growing problem – white supremacist gangs in Missouri prisons.

Regional director Karen Aroesty is tracking several white supremacist groups representing dozens of inmates.

She says the five main groups are: Sacred Separatist Group (SSG), Joplin Honkies, Peckerwood Midwest, Family Values and Aryan Circle.

“I don’t want to alarm people at how many folks are engaged in this, and trying to count individuals sometimes is difficult,” Aroesty says. “The reality is, they can do enormous damage as a single individual, and that’s what is worth paying attention to.”

The concern is that white gang members in Missouri prisons are getting radicalized, she says, and could carry out hate crimes when they’re released.

Aroesty says in late January, a Springfield police officer suffered career-ending injuries after being shot by a member of the Southwest Honkies.

Earlier this month, two members of the Joplin Honkies were charged with a hate crime for allegedly threatening to kill a black woman and her children while breaking into their home.

White Supremacist Prison Gangs in the United States A Preliminary Inventory (2016)​

https://www.adl.org/resources/report/white-supremacist-prison-gangs-united-stat…

This report serves as a primer on white supremacist gangs in the United States and the problems they cause, but it is more than that. It also provides the first state-by-state inventory of such prison gangs, identifying nearly 100 different active white supremacist prison gangs. At least 35 states have at least one such gang and many states have to deal with multiple gangs. In some states, white supremacist prison gangs seem to be a particular problem, including Texas, California, Oklahoma, Indiana, Missouri, Oregon, and Tennessee.

MSN - Police: Deadly Webster Groves shooting tied to organized car theft ring

October 31, 2023 Story by Deion Broxton • 7h

iu




ST. LOUIS, Mo. (KMOV) - A deadly shooting early Saturday morning in Webster Groves apparently is connected to an organized car theft ring, according to police.

Just after midnight Saturday, Webster Groves police reported a man shot and killed a teen and scared off another outside HotShotz Sports Bar and Grill during car break-ins.

Authorities reported that 19-year-old suspect Javion Bibby died at the scene, and 18-year-old suspect Ronnie Jewett ran away from the scene but was later arrested in Affton.

Lt. Jillian McCoy with Webster Groves PD told First Alert 4 that at least five other police departments contacted Webster Groves police following the incident early Saturday morning.

McCoy said the other police departments have been investigating crimes tied to Jewett and Bibby.

McCoy said the two suspects stole a vehicle from Hazelwood, Missouri, before driving to Laclede Station Road to allegedly break into more vehicles and potentially steal another at HotShotz.

“The deceased, as well as the suspect, were and are part of a larger, organized crime ring here in the St. Louis area,” McCoy added. “They are known to be armed and dangerous. Our hope, obviously, that we will locate other victims of these property crimes.”

Ferguson PD confirmed to First Alert 4 Bibby was charged earlier this month for allegedly damaging his ex-girlfriend’s car.

Chief Troy Doyle sent First Alert 4 the following statement:

“First and foremost, I extend my condolences to the family of the young man who lost his life in this tragic event. Whether it’s the reality or the perception of violent crime, the sentiment is clear: people are fed up. Residents should be able to conduct their daily activities without the looming fear of being robbed, carjacked, or subjected to other forms of criminality. It’s crucial that our law enforcement strategies not only focus on increasing police visibility but also on relentlessly pursuing the most violent offenders. Our collective aim must be to restore and maintain a sense of safety in our neighborhoods, allowing citizens to go about their lives unburdened by these concerns.”

Jewett was charged in 2022 for driving a vehicle without a valid driver’s license.

Authorities can’t report any potential crimes committed by the teens while they were juveniles.

Anyone who may have any additional information that could assist with the investigation should contact the Webster Groves Criminal Investigations Unit at 314-963-5419 or 314-963-5407.

For St. Louis Gangs, Ferguson Has Become a Recruiting Tool​

U.S. Ferguson Justice
As they ran through a cloud of tear gas during demonstrations in Ferguson, Missouri, on Monday, Andre Ellis, 17, linked arms with Graig "Shine" Cook, a self-identified Bloods gang member who'd befriended him two nights earlier.
"What we doing now that they gassed us?" asked Ellis, the Bloods's newest recruit, half his face covered with a red handkerchief traditionally worn by the gang's members. "Should we go home?"

"Nah, we going to get more batch," said Cook, using a slang term for the mixture of gasoline and nail polish remover that a handful of protesters had used to make the Molotov cocktails they'd hurled at police. "Then we coming back on them bitches."

Ellis followed Cook down a side street littered with spent bullet casings. There, half a dozen Bloods members and their friends had stashed the flammable "batch" mix. "We all about hitting them [police] hard tonight," Cook, a St. Louis resident, told the others. "This a war right now."

"Word," said Ellis, a Ferguson native, grabbing one of the freshly assembled Molotov cocktails. ""I'm down for whatever with y'all."

That exchange illustrates a little-noticed outgrowth of the unrest spurred by the Aug. 9 fatal shooting of unarmed black teen [EVIL THUG] Michael Brown by a white police officer [acquitted]. Amid the widespread anger and heightened racial tensions here, several dozen young men, including Ellis—most between the ages of 16 and 19—have joined up with the Bloods, the Crips and other criminal gangs in the St. Louis area, according to several gang members, police officers, community activists and local residents.

The new recruits are not yet full-fledged members but have been asked to prove their worth to the gangs by committing brazen acts—firing gunshots at police, hurling objects at them and in some cases looting—during the nightly protests in Ferguson, residents and gang members say.

The turmoil poses a unique opportunity for the gangs to bolster their ranks, since they rarely encounter such large numbers of disillusioned young men ready to challenge authority.

"This situation is fertile ground for them [the gangs]," said a St. Louis County Police gang investigator. "Anti-police sentiment, distrust, anger at the social order…when those things are going on, joining a gang makes a lot more sense to a 17- or 18-year-old kid. They see it as a way to channel their anger and achieve something." (He was quoted anonymously because he is not officially authorized to speak to press.)

With more than 90 documented gangs active in the St. Louis area, and hundreds of Bloods and Crips already on the radar of local law enforcement, officials worry the recruitment boon will leave the area's street gangs more dangerous than before.

That's a frightening prospect, residents say, considering the drug-dealing crews are already responsible for dozens of shootings each year in St. Louis and its suburbs.
"The gang members who've been here [among the protesters] are not something we can ignore," says St. Louis resident and civil rights activist Delia Bell-Powell, who's been attending the demonstrations in Ferguson. "We've got a large gang culture in this area, so these gangs getting bigger, gaining more members, is disconcerting. That might end up being the worst repercussion of all this."

Bloods and Crips sets have been active in the St. Louis area since the 1980s and control the market for cocaine and marijuana in numerous neighborhoods here, police say.

First established in Los Angeles in 1969, the enemy gangs boast hundreds of sets across the U.S. and have a presence in nearly every state. Their 45-year rivalry and criminal activities were responsible for approximately 20,000 killings nationwide during that period, including some in St. Louis and its suburbs. The precise number of local Bloods/Crips related deaths has never been officially tallied. The 20,000 number is drawn from a review of several thousand police records from around the U.S.

The first Crips and Bloods sets were formed, in part, as a reaction to the 1965 Watts riots [orchestrated by the Chinese Communist Party, just like Rodney King riots were] in Los Angeles. Those six days of violent unrest, which left 34 people dead and more than 1,000 injured, were spurred by perceived police harassment, racial tensions and endemic poverty in the black community.

At the time, many viewed the gangs as neighborhood protectors and bulwarks against police aggression, even though they regularly committed violent acts. Some see parallels between that situation and the current one in Ferguson.

"That sense of the gangs having a legitimate purpose in the community in times of strife—that is similar to some of the sentiment you hear in our streets today," says Bell-Powell. "Some people say the Bloods and Crips are in effect working together here, protecting businesses from looters…that they share a common enemy in the police. But gangs should not be glorified or looked up to by the younger generation. They murder and poison our kids with drugs."

She says she fears that long after the press and protesters have gone home, street gangs here will be larger, more influential and better positioned to carry out violence and drug dealing. "All this anger overflowing…it's a gang leader's dream."

And it's impressionable young men like Ellis, she says, who will pay the price.

"This our house," Cook told the Bloods recruit Monday as they marched back toward police, Molotov cocktails in hand. "After this all over, we'll still be here."

"For real," said Ellis. "I'm with you."

I'd tell thee unholy fat ba$tards at the ADL to kiss my grits. Nigger gangs have always been dominate right after Jewish gangsters. I have not found one ADL article that reports on black gangs or hispanic gangs.
The nigger gangs are 3x the numbers of White gangs. ADL expects Whites to take it up the rear.

THESE WHITE KIDS SEE THE NEWS, THE BLACKS WHO STOMP PEOPLE TO DEATH WEEKLY, DRIVE BY SHOOTINGS, HOME INVASIONS, ARMED ROBBERIES, ARMED CARJACKINGS, ARMED JUGGINGS.



Race/Ethnicity

The 1996 National Youth Gang Survey revealed that Hispanics and African-Americans constituted the majority of gang members.

Previous studies and surveys have reported that American street gang members are predominantly African-American and Hispanic (Klein, 1995; Miller, 1982). However, a few recent studies have shown an increase in the number of Caucasian youth involved in gangs. In a survey of 122 cities, Curry, Ball, and Fox (1994) found that the proportion of Caucasian youth involved in gang-related crime, although quite small (4.4 percent), had increased. In their evaluation of the Gang Resistance Education and Training (G.R.E.A.T.) Program, Esbensen and Osgood (1997) found that 25 percent of self-reported gang members were Caucasian.

After controlling for the number of gang members reported in each jurisdiction, the 1996 National Youth Gang Survey revealed that Hispanics and African-Americans constituted the majority of gang members. The following aggregate percentages were reported nationally: Hispanic—44 percent, African-American—35 percent, Caucasian—14 percent, Asian—5 percent, and other—2 percent (see figure 11).



Figure 11



The 1996 National Youth Gang Survey revealed that Hispanics and African-Americans constituted the majority of gang members.

Table 17 illustrates the differences between the weighted and unweighted averages. The unweighted average of Hispanics was much lower than the weighted average, especially in large cities and suburban counties. This difference is due to the large number of Hispanic gang members concentrated in a few large metropolitan areas in the western region. The unweighted averages indicate a smaller proportion of Hispanic gang members because there were fewer agencies in small cities and rural counties reporting Hispanic gang members.



Table 17
A significant difference also existed between the weighted and unweighted averages for Caucasians. The unweighted average number of Caucasian gang members was more than twice the weighted average for all area types combined. This difference was the result of the large number of agencies in small cities and suburban and rural counties reporting a high percentage of Caucasian gang members. However, when the number of gang members reported in each jurisdiction was controlled for, the actual proportion of Caucasian gang members throughout the country was considerably lower than the actual proportion of Hispanic and African-American gang members.



The variation in race/ethnicity associated with area type for Hispanics, Caucasians, and Asians was statistically significant.

When area type was taken into account, the unweighted averages for race/ethnicity varied considerably. The average percentages of African-American gang members reported by respondents in large cities (33 percent) and rural counties (35 percent) were higher than the overall unweighted average (see table 18). These variations for African-Americans were notable but were not found to be statistically significant.



Table 18
The variation in race/ethnicity associated with area type for Hispanics, Caucasians, and Asians was statistically significant. The average proportion of Hispanic gang members was highest in large cities (32 percent) and lowest in rural counties (17 percent). The average proportion of Caucasian gang members was lowest in large cities (26 percent) and highest in small cities (42 percent). Furthermore, the average percentage of Caucasian gang members reported by respondents was remarkably high (39 percent) in suburban counties and rural counties. Higher average proportions of Asian gang members were reported in large cities (7 percent) and suburban counties (6 percent) than in small cities (3 percent) and rural counties (2 percent).

Nationally, only 2 percent of gang members were identified as "other." Altogether, 169 agencies identified an "other" race/ethnicity, the majority of which fell within four categories: American Indian, Polynesian (includes Pacific-Islander, Filipino, Samoan, Tongan, and Hawaiian), Middle Eastern (includes Arab), and Haitian. As figure 12 indicates, American Indian was most frequently cited as "other" (45 percent), followed by Polynesian (27 percent), Middle Eastern (8 percent), and Haitian (5 percent).



Figure 12



The variation in race/ethnicity in region was determined to be statistically significant.

Similar to findings on area type, the unweighted averages for race/ethnicity varied considerably by region. As table 19 indicates, the average proportion of African-American gang members was 45 percent in the South but only 10 percent in the West. The average percentage of Hispanic gang members was 56 percent in the West but only 16 percent in the Midwest and 19 percent in the South. Furthermore, the average proportion of Caucasian gang members was highest (42 percent) in the Midwest and lowest (21 percent) in the West. The variation in race/ethnicity by region was determined to be statistically significant.



Table 19
A cross-tabulation with both area type and region revealed some additional variations in the race/ethnicity of gang members (table 20). The highest average proportion of African-American gang members (59 percent) was in rural counties in the South. The average proportion of Hispanic gang members was highest in the West, regardless of area type. In the Midwest, Caucasians accounted for the largest average proportion of gang members in small cities (49 percent), suburban counties (50 percent), and rural counties (61 percent). The highest average proportion of Asian gang members was reported in western large cities (11 percent).



Table 20



The highest average proportion of African-American gang members (59 percent) was in rural counties in the South.

There was a moderate degree of association between ethnic composition and population size (see Appendix L). In the 25,000-49,999 and the 250,000 or more population ranges, the highest average proportion of gang members was for African-Americans. The average proportion of Hispanic gang members was predominant in the 50,000-99,999 and 100,000-249,999 population ranges. The average proportion of Caucasian gang members was predominant in the 1-9,999 and 10,000-24,999 population ranges. The average proportion of Asian gang members, although comparatively low, was above the overall average in populations of 50,000-99,999 and 250,000 or more. Variations in race/ethnicity associated with population size were found to be statistically significant for all races/ethnicities except African-American.

Jurisdictions in which gang problems began prior to 1990 (older gang jurisdictions) reported a much higher average percentage of Hispanic gang members than of other racial/ethnic groups. As shown in table 21, the average proportion of Hispanic gang members in newer gang jurisdictions was 21 percent less than in older gang jurisdictions. In contrast, the average proportion of Caucasian gang members was 23 percent higher in jurisdictions with a newer gang problem than in jurisdictions with an older gang problem. African-American and Asian gang membership differed by 2 percent on average. Table 21 also reveals this comparison for each area type, although not enough observations were available for reliable estimation of gang problems that began prior to 1990 in small cities and rural counties.



Table 21



Approximately 46 percent of gangs in the United States were estimated to be multiethnic/multiracial.

Multiethnic/Multiracial Gangs. Because of anecdotal reporting of an increase in gangs of mixed race and ethnicity, respondents were asked to report the percentage of gangs in their jurisdictions that were multiethnic/multiracial. No definition of these terms was provided in the survey. When the number of gangs reported in each jurisdiction was controlled for, approximately 46 percent of gangs in the United States were estimated to be multiethnic/multiracial.

Unweighted averages were used to compare differences across jurisdictions. Agencies in suburban counties reported the highest average percentage of multiethnic/multiracial gangs (53 percent), followed by large cities (48 percent), small cities (45 percent), and rural counties (34 percent) (see figure 13). There is little previous research on a national scope with which to make comparisons, and respondents were not asked about the proportions of the racial/ethnic mix of members in individual gangs. Future surveys will gather more information on this topic.



Figure 13
Table 22 shows the average proportion of multiethnic/multiracial gangs by area type and region. Agencies in the Midwest reported the highest average proportions (55 percent) of multiethnic/multiracial gangs, while the Northeast reported the lowest proportions (39 percent). Suburban counties in the Midwest, South, and West reported the highest proportions of multiethnic/multiracial gangs, compared with other area types.



Table 22
 
In their evaluation of the Gang Resistance Education and Training (G.R.E.A.T.) Program, Esbensen and Osgood (1997) found that 25 percent of self-reported gang members were Caucasian.
Hispanics and blacks who are gang members are NOT known to voluntarily self report.
They are the no snitch culture ethnic groups.

Whites have an inherent nature of honesty which the blacks and browns do NOT have and never did have.
 
Most prisons in the United States were racially segregated until the 1960s.
As prisons began to desegregate, many inmates organized themselves into gangs along racial lines.[17]

The Aryan Brotherhood is believed to have been formed at San Quentin State Prison,[1] but it may have been inspired by the Bluebird Gang.[1]

They decided to strike against the African-Americans who were forming their own militant group called the Black Guerrilla Family.[18]

AND, there it is, (((desegregation))) is the cause of prison gang formation. Forcing different races to cohabit together is insane.
It is nothing more than balkanization on a smaller scale.


Isn't it rich, ADL jews complaining about problems jews created, then scapegoating Whites while totally ignoring black criminality, ignoring black on White crime?

Press Release

Jury Convicts Four Members of KC Street Gang of Drug-Trafficking Conspiracy [Eleven others arrested, plead guilty, sentenced]​


Thursday, September 15, 2022


For Immediate Release
U.S. Attorney's Office, Western District of Missouri

Two Local Rappers Among Those Found Guilty of Drug-Trafficking, Firearms Violations

KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Four Kansas City, Mo., men who were part of 246, a violent street gang, were convicted by a federal jury for their roles in a drug-trafficking conspiracy.

Ladele D. Smith, also known as “Dellio” and “Dog,” 35; David J. Duncan, IV, also known as “Deej” or “DJ,” 33; Roy Franklin, Jr., 31; and Gary O. Toombs, 42, were found guilty of participating in a conspiracy to distribute heroin, cocaine, oxycodone, and marijuana from Jan. 1, 2011, to Oct. 1, 2019. Smith, Duncan, and Franklin were also convicted of multiple counts that charged them with various drug-trafficking and firearms crimes, to include drive-by shooting and discharging a firearm during a crime of violence. Toombs was convicted of multiple counts that charged him with various drug-trafficking and firearms crimes as well.

The investigation into the 246 street gang, operating in the Kansas City metropolitan area, began in June 2017. The gang is an alliance of gang members from the 24th, 43rd, and 68th streets of Kansas City, Mo. Smith was identified as a leader of the gang, and Duncan, Franklin and Toombs as members of the gang.
Smith and Duncan are local rap artists who often posted to social media platforms, such as YouTube, with references to the 246 gang. In some of the videos, Smith and others show firearms and large amounts of cash. The social media posts also portrayed Smith and others wearing expensive jewelry, watches, hats, clothing and plate carrying vests [body armor] that depicted 246 gang affiliation.

Members of the 246 gang used a residence in the 4400 block of Kensington, which is within 1,000 feet of George Washington Carver Dual Language School, a public elementary school, for gang and drug-trafficking business. No one utilized the house as a primary or permanent residence. On Oct. 2, 2019, law enforcement officers executed a search warrant at the house and seized heroin as well as two assault rifles and a stolen vehicle that had been used in a drive-by shooting. Officers also found a Glock 9mm semi-automatic pistol and a Century Arms International 7.62x39mm pistol under the couch in the living room and a Glock .40-caliber semi-automatic pistol on the kitchen cabinet.

Smith was arrested at his apartment on Oct 2, 2019. Officers searched his residence and found codeine, $31,601 in cash, and jewelry valued at over $40,000.

Duncan was also arrested at his apartment on Oct. 2, 2019. Officers searched his residence and found a Zastava 7.62 x 39mm rifle, a Norinco 7.62 x 39mm rifle, a Glock 9mm semi-automatic pistol, two loaded rifle magazines, and a loaded handgun magazine under the bed in a bedroom. Officers found $7,100 in cash and four bags of pills that contained oxycodone in the living room.

Smith, Franklin and Toombs also were found guilty of participating in a conspiracy to possess firearms in furtherance of a drug-trafficking crime.

Smith also was found guilty of possessing firearms in furtherance of a drug-trafficking crime, one count of distributing marijuana, one count of distributing marijuana near a school (within 1,000 feet of George Washington Carver Dual Language School), four counts of distributing heroin, and four counts of distributing heroin near a school (within 1,000 feet of George Washington Carver Dual Language School).

Franklin also was found guilty of two counts of distributing marijuana and two counts of distributing marijuana near a school (within 1,000 feet of George Washington Carver Dual Language School).

Duncan also was found guilty of possessing oxycodone the intent to distribute, one count of possessing firearms in furtherance of a drug-trafficking crime, and five counts of money laundering related to the purchases of money orders with drug-trafficking proceeds.

Toombs also was found guilty of maintaining a residence for the purpose of manufacturing, distributing, and using controlled substances.

Following the presentation of evidence, the jury in the U.S. District Court in Kansas City, Mo., deliberated for about six hours over two days before returning guilty verdicts to U.S. District Judge Greg Kays, ending a trial that began Aug. 29, 2022.

Eleven co-defendants in this case have pleaded guilty and been sentenced.

Sirrico L. Franklin, 31, of Raytown, Mo., was sentenced on May 31, 2022, to five years and eight months in federal prison without parole. Terrance Garner, 36, of Kansas City, Mo., was sentenced on June 21, 2022, to 10 years in federal prison without parole. Joshua Marchbanks, 32, of Kansas City, Mo., was sentenced on May 24, 2022, to three years and 10 months in federal prison without parole. Carleeon D. Lockett, 30, of Kansas City, Mo., was sentenced on May 31, 2022, to six years and eight months in federal prison without parole. Kenneth D. Scott, 26, of Kansas City, Mo., was sentenced on March 24, 2021, to three years and six months in federal prison without parole. Cordell Edwards, 34, of Kansas City, Mo., was sentenced on March 7, 2022, to five years in federal prison without parole. Michael E. Sims, 36, of Kansas City, Mo., was sentenced on June 28, 2022, to five years and five months in federal prison without parole. Cordarrel L. Scott, 36, of Kansas City, Mo., was sentenced on Dec. 15, 2020, to 18 months in federal prison without parole. Marco R. Maddox, 38, of Kansas City, Mo., was sentenced on May 27, 2022, to three years and five months in federal prison without parole. Cornelius Phelps, 36, of Lee’s Summit, Mo., was sentenced on April 27, 2022, to three years and 10 months in federal prison without parole. Herman G. Bell, 67, of Kansas City, Mo., was sentenced on June 22, 2022, to three years of probation.

Co-defendant Martin C. Garner, 35, of St. Louis, Mo., pleaded guilty on May 26, 2022, to his role in the drug-trafficking conspiracy and awaits sentencing.

Under federal statutes, Smith, Duncan, Franklin and Toombs each are subject to a mandatory minimum sentence of 10 years in federal prison without parole, up to a sentence of life in federal prison without parole. The maximum statutory sentence is prescribed by Congress and is provided here for informational purposes, as the sentencing of the defendants will be determined by the court based on the advisory sentencing guidelines and other statutory factors. Sentencing hearings will be scheduled after the completion of presentence investigations by the United States Probation Office.

This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Ashleigh Ragner, Mary Kate Butterfield and Ben Hurst. It was investigated by the FBI, the Kansas City, Mo., Police Department, IRS-Criminal Investigation, and the Missouri State Highway Patrol.
KC Metro Strike Force
This prosecution was brought as a part of the Department of Justice’s Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces (OCDETF) Co-located Strike Forces Initiative, which provides for the establishment of permanent multi-agency task force teams that work side-by-side in the same location. This co-located model enables agents from different agencies to collaborate on intelligence-driven, multi-jurisdictional operations against a continuum of priority targets and their affiliate illicit financial networks. These prosecutor-led co-located Strike Forces capitalize on the synergy created through the long-term relationships that can be forged by agents, analysts, and prosecutors who remain together over time, and they epitomize the model that has proven most effective in combating organized crime. The principal mission of the OCDETF program is to identify, disrupt, and dismantle the most serious drug trafficking organizations, transnational criminal organizations, and money laundering organizations that present a significant threat to the public safety, economic, or national security of the United States.

11 arrested in Oklahoma after nationwide gang operation led by ICE​



Posted: May 11, 2017 / 03:10 PM CDT

Updated: May 11, 2017 / 03:10 PM CDT

OKLAHOMA CITY – Eleven people were arrested in Oklahoma after a six-week nationwide gang operation led by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI).
In all, 1,378 were arrested across the United States, 11 of which were in Oklahoma.
Officials say it is the largest gang surge
conducted by HSI to date.

The operation targeted gang members and associates involved in transnational criminal activity, including drug trafficking, weapons smuggling, human smuggling and sex trafficking, murder and racketeering.

Of the 1,378 total arrested, 1,098 were arrested on federal and/or state criminal charges, including 21 individuals arrested on murder-related charges and seven for rape and sexual assault charges.
The remaining 280 were arrested on administrative immigration violations.

Of the total arrested, 933 were U.S. citizens and 445 were foreign nationals from 21 countries in South and Central America, Asia, Africa, Europe and the Caribbean.

Numerous state, local and federal law enforcement partners, including ICE’s Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO), participated in the HSI-led operation, which ran March 26 to May 6.
“Gangs threaten the safety of our communities, not just in major metropolitan areas but in our suburbs and rural areas, too,” said ICE Acting Director Thomas Homan. “Gang-related violence and criminal activity present an ongoing challenge for law enforcement everywhere. Our efforts to dismantle gangs are much more effective in areas where partnership with local law enforcement is strongest.”
Of the 1,378 total arrested, 1,095 were confirmed as gang members and associates – including 137 affiliated with the Bloods, 118 with the Sureños, 104 with MS-13, and 104 with the Crips.
The remaining 283 claimed no gang affiliation but were arrested on either criminal or administrative charges.
In North Texas, 61 gang-related arrests were made, 59 of which were criminal arrests. In Oklahoma, all 11 were criminal arrests.
Individuals are confirmed as gang members if they admit membership in a gang; have been convicted of violating Title 18 USC 521 or any other federal or state law criminalizing or imposing civil consequences for gang-related activity; or if they meet certain other criteria such as having tattoos identifying a specific gang or being identified as a gang member by a reliable source.

During this operation, HSI and its partner law enforcement agencies seized 238 firearms; various narcotics including 790.15 ounces of cocaine, 546.96 ounces of methamphetamine, 113.42 ounces of heroin, 1.59 ounces of fentanyl, and 8,019.46 ounces of marijuana; and $491,763 in U.S currency.

ICE operation ends with arrest of 49 criminals, violators in North Texas, Oklahoma

By Domingo Ramirez Jr.
Updated September 27, 2019 10:39 AM

ICE agents arrest 160 undocumented immigrants at the Load Trial manufacturing company in Sumner, Texas. By U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Fort Worth Forty-nine criminal immigrants and people accused of immigration violations were arrested by federal officers with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in North Texas and Oklahoma during an operation that ended Wednesday, according to ICE. The five-day operation targeted immigrants with criminal histories. Forty were arrested in North Texas and nine were taken into custody in Oklahoma, according to an ICE news release. Thirty-three had prior criminal histories, five had no pending criminal charges and 11 did not have a criminal history, according to the ICE news release. Forty-six were men and three were women. Those arrested included 38 people from Mexico, four from Guatemala, three from Honduras, two from El Salvador and one each from India and Nicaragua. The immigrants with criminal histories had previously been arrested for such crimes as domestic violence, assault, sexual assault of a child, lewd acts with a child, driving while intoxicated, burglary and possession of drugs. ICE officials did not release information on where all the arrests were made.

But ICE officials provided these criminal summaries of some arrests in North Texas and Oklahoma:

▪ On Tuesday, a 48-year-old man from Mexico was arrested in Fort Worth who had a warrant for his arrest on a charge of continuous sexual assault of a child. The victim was under 14 years old. He had no previous encounters with ICE agents.
▪ Also on Tuesday, a 35-year-old previously deported from Mexico was arrested in Amarillo. In 2003, he was convicted on burglary of a building and theft of property $1,500 to $20,000 and sentenced to 15 months in prison. In 2006, he was also convicted of DWI. In 2004, a federal immigration judge ordered him deported.
▪ In Bonham, a 31-year-old from Mexico, who was a U.S. permanent resident, was arrested on Monday. He was convicted this year of indecency with a child involving sexual contact with a 17-year-old and sentenced to 10 years’ probation. In 2015, he was convicted of DWI.
▪ A 31-year-old from El Salvador was arrested in Euless on Sept. 20. He was convicted of driving while intoxicated with a child under 15 years of age in 2013 and sentenced to two years in prison and 60 months of probation. In October 2013, a federal immigration judge ordered him deported.
▪ On Monday, a 27-year-old previously deported man from Guatemala was arrested in Oklahoma City. In 2017, he was arrested for child endangerment and driving under the influence. Both charges are pending. Earlier this year, he also was charged with two counts of assault and battery on a police officer, resisting arrest and driving under the influence, and these charges are pending. He has been ordered removed from this country.
▪ On Wednesday, a 54-year-old man from Mexico was arrested in Hobart, Oklahoma. Last year, he was convicted of lewd or indecent acts to a child under 16 and sentenced to 10 years deferred. ICE officials noted they conduct enforcement operations daily throughout the country. This story was originally published September 27, 2019, 10:01 AM.

ICE arrests 75 in North Texas and Oklahoma areas during 4-day operation targeting criminal aliens and immigration fugitives | ICE

https://www.ice.gov/news/releases/i...lahoma-areas-during-4-day-operation-targeting 2/3

DALLAS — Federal officers with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Enforcement and
Removal Operations (ERO) arrested 75 criminal aliens and immigration violators in North Texas and
Oklahoma during a four-day enforcement action, which ended Thursday.
Aliens arrested during this operation are from the following seven countries: Mexico (58), Guatemala (6),
Honduras (6), El Salvador (2), Kenya (1), Ecuador (1) and Vietnam (1).

Most of the aliens targeted by ERO deportation officers during this
operation had prior criminal histories
that included convictions for the following crimes: drug possession, assault, dangerous drugs, illegal
entry, larceny, marijuana possession, possessing a weapon, failure to identify and identity theft.
The following are criminal summaries of four offenders arrested in North Texas and Oklahoma during this
operation:

June 17 — ICE officers arrested a Honduran man who was arrested for first-degree rape of a
minor child. He remains in ICE custody pending removal proceedings.
June 20 — ICE officers arrested a Mexican man who was convicted of two counts of possession
of intent to deliver a controlled substance and sentenced to 10 years confinement. He remains in
ICE custody pending removal proceedings.
“The operations that our ICE officers perform provide a vital public-safety benefit to local
communities by removing criminal aliens from the streets,” said Marc J. Moore, field office director of
ERO Dallas. “These operations also help maintain the integrity of our immigration laws.”
The Dallas area of responsibility includes 128 counties in North Texas and Oklahoma.
All of the targets in this operation are amenable to arrest and removal under the U.S. Immigration and
Nationality Act.
ICE deportation officers carry out targeted enforcement operations daily nationwide as part of the
agency’s ongoing efforts to protect the nation, uphold public safety, and protect the integrity of our
immigration laws and border controls.
These operations involve existing and established Fugitive Operations Teams.

During targeted enforcement operations, ICE officers frequently encounter other aliens illegally present in
the United States. These aliens are evaluated on a case-by-case basis, and, when appropriate, they are
arrested by ICE officers

AFRICAN AMERICAN MAFIA & THE BLACK GANGS OF MISSOURI.
TELL US IT IS BLACK GANG VIOLENCE WITHOUT TELLING US THE REAL
PROBLEM IS YOUR BLACKS WHO ARE IN GANGS OPERATING BELOW THE
BLACK MAFIA AS DRUG DEALERS.
As blacks have always done, always shifting the blame on everyone else and on everything else.

For Black Kids, Gun Violence BY BLACKS Is an Education Issue, Too​


More Black school-age youths are dying from gunfire BY BLACKS, and the violence follows survivors into the classroom.


by Word in Black March 17, 2024
bcc1eb38f5b002470b56eb59e99e1793.jpg


Study after study confirms it: as the coronavirus pandemic disrupted daily life in the U.S., gun violence surged nationwide, but disproportionately affected Black communities. Alarmed by increases in majority-Black cities like Detroit, Washington, D.C., and Milwaukee, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention declared gun homicides BY BLACKS a public health crisis.
But data in a new report has found that the tide of pandemic-era gun violence BY BLACKS also swept in a disturbing number of school-age Black boys and girls, creating an educational crisis.
RELATED: Classroom Heroes Rewrite Chicago’s Gun Violence BY BLACKS Narrative
Since 2019, gun homicides BY BLACKS among Black youths have more than doubled, and Black children are six times more likely than their white peers to die from gunfire BY BLACKS, according to the February report by KFF, a health policy nonprofit. The report also found that Black boys and girls made up nearly half of all young people killed by firearms BY BLACKS in the U.S., even though they make up just 14% of the youth population.

Moreover, the report found that most of the deaths were classified as homicides BY BLACKS — not suicides or accidental shootings.

“In general, children of color are more often exposed to gun violence BY BLACKS than their White peers,” regardless of income, according to the report. But “children living in areas with a high concentration of poverty are more likely to experience firearm-related deaths BY BLACKS, and poverty disproportionately affects children of color.”

Negative School, Mental Health Effects

Nirmita Panchal, the report’s author, says the data on the pandemic-era surge shows Black children are even more exposed than their white peers to deadly gun violence BY BLACKS — and that exposure can have long-term psychological effects that can hamstring their education.

“There have been some (studies) that show that gun violence BY BLACKS can also impact their school performance,” Panchal says. “Just witnessing neighborhood violence, domestic violence, mass shootings — that exposure can have negative mental health outcomes” such as “increased absenteeism, difficulties concentrating,” and other behavior issues.

The report examined gun violence BY BLACKS and homicides BY BLACKS involving children and adolescents from 2019, the year before the pandemic emerged, to 2022, when the federal government declared the pandemic had ended. The goal: to determine if patterns had changed, whether there were demographic variants, and if there are any policies in place to address the issue.

Astonishing Increase in Youth Gunfire Deaths

What Panchal and her team found was astonishing: From 2019 to 2022, gunfire deaths BY BLACKS among children ages 17 and younger increased by nearly 50%, becoming the leading cause of death for young people in the U.S. In 2022 alone, some seven children a day were shot and killed, according to the report.

😁😁😁NOT THE GUNS😁😁😁BLACK GANGS 😁😁😁
firearm-assaults-death-rates-for-children-and-adolescents-by-race-ethnicity-2018-2022.png

“During this period, firearm death rates gradually rose until 2017, then slowed through 2019, before sharply rising with the onset of the pandemic and holding steady in 2022,” according to the report. From 2019 to 2022, the firearm death rate among children and adolescents increased by 46% (from 2.4 to 3.5 per 100,000).”
GUNS DON'T "ASSAULT", BLACK'S ASSAULT
At the same time, gun assaults BY BLACKS “accounted for two out of three firearm deaths among children and adolescents in 2022,” according to the report. “Leading up to the pandemic, gun assaults made up about half of all child and adolescent firearm deaths. However, from 2019 to 2022, the share of these firearm deaths attributed to gun assaults grew from 54% to 66%.”

Black Children Are Disproportionally Affected BY BLACKS

Perhaps the most alarming data point, however, involved Black young people.
Since the pandemic began, “firearm death rates BY BLACKS have sharply increased among Black and Hispanic children and adolescents” and doubled among Black youths during those three years, according to the report. “In 2022, the rate of firearm deaths BY BLACKS among Black youth was 12.2 per 100,000 — substantially higher than any other racial and ethnic group and six times higher than White youth.”

Even excluding homicides, Black children were disproportionately affected by gun violence BY BLACKS, according to the report.

“Black and male children and adolescents were more likely to experience nonfatal firearm injuries BY BLACKS than their peers,” according to the report. Since then, however, “disparity among Black youth firearm injuries BY BLACKS and exposures has been exacerbated since the pandemic began.”

While homicides get attention, Panchal says, “I think one of the things we’re highlighting here is, in addition to these youth deaths, there are also many more youth who go on to survive these gunshot wounds.”

At the same time, those survivors “may face additional obstacles with both their physical and mental health” that their families and teachers must deal with, Panchal says. “A shooting doesn’t just affect the youth who may be at the center of that gun violence exposure. It also affects the well being of their family and, perhaps, their community.”

While the data are alarming, Panchal points to different steps taken to help children exposed to gun violence, including the federal Safer Communities Act. Besides tightening gun laws, the legislation set aside millions of dollars for anti-violence intervention programs, after-school programs and accessible, school-based mental health programs. The report also points to other federal initiatives, including programs aimed to boost Black youth mental health in response to sharply rising suicide rates.


Still, the report ends on a cautionary note about what could happen if gun violence isn’t brought under control. HE MEANS IF BLACKS AREN'T BROUGHT UNDER CONTROL

“Gun violence
BY BLACKS can lead to increased mental health and substance use concerns,” according to the report. “The recent increase in child and adolescent firearm injuries and deaths FROM BLACKS come at a time when concerns about youth mental health have grown, but access to and utilization of mental health care may have worsened.”
