Louis FERRET Con converted the street gang to Islam in mass to keep LEO out of their “temple”. It had nothing to do with religion as much as to make their members a bit higher than the normal street gang.
EL Runk is still around. Now in Indiana under a different name. Gang specializes in Drugs, murder for hire, male and female prostitution and even had plans to blow up some federal buildings. Their explosive supplies were funded by Kaddaffi via uncle Louie.
Thanks for additional.
