The City Of L.A. Is Now Suing Gangs For Their Assets
The city of Los Angeles, plagued by 23,000 violent gang crimes since 2004, including 784 murders and 12,000 felony assaults, announced Tuesday that it had won its first civil judgment, for $5 million, against a criminal gang that had dominated the heroin trade downtown for decades.
The verdict could bode well for another first-of-its-kind lawsuit the city filed last month that goes after all assets of gang leaders, not just those associated with their criminal activity. Both suits seek to plow the money back into improving the neighborhoods affected by the gangs through a fund.

That is actually a brilliant idea. And I especially like the part about putting the money they win back into the community. If this is curruption free it is a good idea on paper. But have some fore-thought. This is just the first step. It is only a matter of time before someone comes with the bright idea to sue hip hop stars for their assets becasue they feel it is equally as destructive to community as for instance selling crack. Al Sharpton is a bitch like that. Don King- with a perm Lol.
