What Were You Thinking??? Police Arrest 43 Rival New York iGangstas After They Were Caught Talking About Murders Over Twitter And Facebook!!
SMH…
Police investigating three murders arrested 43 feuding New York gang members on Thursday based on evidence collected from monitoring what they were saying about the cases on Twitter and Facebook, authorities said.
The 25 accused members of the Wave Gang and 18 accused members of rival Hoodstarz have been terrorizing streets in Brooklyn with shootouts that led to the killing of three people and wounding of several others, New York Police Commissioner Raymond Kelly said.
The gang members, ages 15 to 21, bragged about the shootings on the social media sites Twitter, Facebook and YouTube, he said.
‘By linking their postings and boastings to active cases and other crimes, these officers were able to build their case,’ Mr Kelly said.
The police had to crack the code and learn the slang that the gang members used to talk about crimes over social networks.
‘By linking their postings and boastings to active cases and other crimes, these officers were able to build their case,’ Mr Kelly said.
‘The officers who made this case became experts in the lexicon as they followed gang members on Twitter, on Facebook and on YouTube.’
The gang were watched and monitored for over a year while they continued to terrorise Brooklyn neighbourhoods.
When the gangs were talking about crossing into rival turf they used the phrase ‘going to the beach’ and when a gang member was gunned down, they said the shooter ‘clapped him off the surfboard’.
Wave members referred to Hood Starz as ‘actors’ and shooting them was called ‘lining them out’.
Wave members were called ‘Woo’ and Hood Starz were called ‘chew’
What kind of punishments will these reckless young hooligans face you ask?
The 43 gang members were indicted on Thursday on charges including murder, assault, reckless endangerment, robbery and weapon possession, with potential sentences ranging from a year to life in prison.
The crimes are said to date back to 2010.
All these corny-a$$ “thugs” need to sit down some-damn-where. Real G’s suppose to move in silence like lasagna and these ninjas are talkin’ about MURDER?? On Twitter and Facebook?!?!
