[quote=Anonymous]Drugs and gangs are rarely discussed bluntly in DC anymore. "Crews" whatever. It is what drives the majority of homicides. Kids are often recruited and sent out to commit organized retail theft, steal cars to ship out of Baltimore, etc. Adults are telling them to have victims log into iPhone so bank accounts can be accessed, etc. These young kids are getting weapons somewhere and criminal adults seems like a good possibility. Lax on juvenile laws makes them more targeted. USAO prosecuted a bunch of the Kennedy St. gang, and a bunch of gang members were arrested on Fairmont yesterday after a crime spree. Have not seen charges for them yet, hopefully USAO won't drop the ball. And of course, a factor is, who is buying the drugs? [/quote]
