    About this ebook

    Prison Gangs
    Organized Crime Behind Bars

    Contents

    'He who runs the inside controls the outside.'
    (Mexican Mafia prison gang saying)
    It is a world of murder, intimidation and extortion, a horrifically violent environment in which nothing matters, because, let's face it, for most of these men there really is nothing left to lose. How many life sentences can a man serve, after all?
    Existing in a world of mayhem and lawlessness, the prison gang is perhaps the ultimate in criminal organizations, its evil tentacles often reaching far beyond the prison gates. And prison gangs have become increasingly powerful in the criminal underworld in recent years. Rather than bring an end to gang members' ability to engage in criminal activity, incarceration has, perversely, provided them with the perfect environment in which to persevere with their nefarious activities.
    Prison Gangs: Organized Crime Behind Bars exposes the frightening world of the prison gang, the lives of men without morality who live in a world in which the rules by which we normally exist no longer apply.

      This book is almost completely inaccurate, I know this to be true because I have personally dealt with many, many members of four different gangs slandered in this “book”, and I know firsthand that this book is very, very inaccurate. Sorry.
