March 18th, 1991. Geraldo Rivera’s investigative report in Boyle Heights shows real-time arrests, well-researched statistics, and discussions with law enforcement.
“On this particular Friday the officers find these young men in a back alley….now the officers have to figure out if the young men are in fact members of a gang..”
The introduction brings us to Boyle Heights Los Angeles where an epidemic of violence ravages the streets. We hear from a pastor who has seen so many die, killed by others that he loved. We hear from Mike Garcia a resident, as he explains the war with the Cuatro Flats has been going on for some time. Gang members speak to losing their friends, family, and about why all the bad blood.
This day, Geraldo’s Television History.
