Crime today: Jet Street gang
Street gangs, already prominent in large cities and urban areas, are rapidly becoming more popular among young people. With their membership expanding, the rate of street crime in some communities has risen dramatically in the last few years. One of the largest and most prolific criminal gangs in the world today, with an estimated membership of thousands in San Francisco, and tens of thousands in other areas of North and Central America, is the Jet Street gang. This transnational criminal organization started as a small street gang in one of the poorest areas of San Francisco and has been active since the 1980s in many regions of the United States, Mexico and Central America.
In the last decade, state police forces, the FBI and customs and immigration officers have been involved in a number of cases where they undertook raids and carried out arrests of suspects right across the regions where the gang operates. The gang’s criminal activities range from minor criminal offences, such as petty theft, joyriding, shoplifting and vandalism, to serious criminal activities such as drug trafficking, arson, robbery, weapons trafficking, human trafficking, identity document forgery, fraud, and murder.
"Every police officer and most judges recognize the name ‘Jet Street gang’", says special FBI agent Bob Hemsley. "They are one of the most prolific street gangs in the USA. They steal cars, burgle homes, and I'd say that someone is robbed by one of the gang members every day."
"It's a well-established gang and its members commit all kinds of street crimes," claims Raphael Dominguez, who oversees investigations by the Bureau of Firearms and Drug Trafficking in Central America. "They are devoted to the gang and to the letter J. We see street graffiti and tattoos with variations of the letter J all the time. Gang members also identify themselves with the letter J on their clothing." 
Unfortunately, most gang members caught and arrested by police officers do not make it to court. Witnesses often pull out of trials, as they fear for their lives. This is quite understandable due to the number of threats they receive from gang members prior to the trial. As fast as arrests are made, accused gang members are released, often due to alibis provided by other gang members. And if a gang member does eventually appear in court, he is likely to be acquitted and released due to a lack of evidence.
