Investigators: Gang graffiti exposed in Alaska Air jet cargo holds
=====================================================================
February 16, 2006 By SUSANNAH FRAME / KING 5 News
But the KING 5 Investigators have obtained photos of the inside of some of
their planes that the company would never want you to see: image after image
of graffiti buried in the bellies of a number of planes where luggage, cargo
and animals are loaded.
The pictures show area codes, scratched out symbols, and words that look like
they could be related to gangs.
Graffiti experts say is associated with gangs covers some areas of the cargo
holds of Alaska Airlines planes.
The internal complaints started surfacing nine months ago. But to date, very
little has been done about it.
Is this harmless scribbling or really gang graffiti? We showed our photos to
five highly respected gang experts in Arizona, New York, California, and two
in the Seattle area. They all came to the same, disturbing conclusion.
"It's definitely gang, and some major gangs are represented there, with some
very violent rivalries. No doubt about it," said Richard Valdemar, who
started the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department gang unit 33 years ago.
He's one of the top gang experts in the country.
"There is some real rivalry going on,” he said.
We asked him to analyze 62 images, all taken from Alaska cargo bins. Like the
other four experts, he said the graffiti shows gang members are working
there, with full access to the airplanes.
"By definition, they are gang members, which means they are outlaws. They're
outside of our system of law. They answer to their own system of law, which
is a criminal culture," he said.
Experts say the word "norte" appears many times in the images, as does “XIV”,
the Roman numeral 14. Together, they refer to the violent Norte 14 gang.
Members identify themselves with locations like Oakland , and area code 510.
Their number one rival – the Surenos
