Eleven alleged members of a street gang based in Los Angeles are facing federal racketeering and other charges for their roles in a suspected prostitution and sex-trafficking ring.

Members of the Hoover Criminal Gang are accused of forcing girls and women into prostitution on the Figueroa Corridor of Los Angeles, resulting in a 31-count federal indictment, the U.S. Department of Justice said in a news release.

“Human trafficking is among the most heinous crimes perpetuated throughout the world,” said Homeland Security Investigations Los Angeles Special Agent in Charge Eddy Wang. “No human should be for sale – not here in Los Angeles or anywhere in our society.”

Is the Hoover gang similar to the Van Buren boys? I wonder what their sign is. What number president was Herbert Hoover?

Time to go duck hunting

I hear they are strongly connected to Vandelay Industries. An importer and exporter of fine latex products. I got that from a television show though so it might not be that reliable a source.

Man. LA is rotten to the core.

White supremacists?

[Fiji Hill]

What number president was Herbert Hoover?

Thirty-one. However, Hoover Street was named for Leonce Huber, aka Hoover, a Swiss doctor who served with Napoleon's army and was an early settler in LA.

The Hoover Gang's back?

I thought the Dyson Eurotrash ran them off for good.

[Secret Agent Man]

They picked the wrong girls

So many are happy to do that kind of stuff unforced.

His former supplier got suicided.
