68 California White Supremacists from SFV Peckerwoods Gang Indicted

Source: US Department of Justice

A massive law enforcement sweep targeting the SFV Peckerwoods, what federal prosecutors call a San Fernando Valley based white supremacist street gang has led to the arrests of 42 members of the racist criminal organization.

A total of 68 alleged members of the SFV Peckerwoods were named in a 76-count federal grand jury indictment unsealed Wednesday that details a litany of crimes related to what prosecutors call a "years-long pattern of racketeering activity that included trafficking of drugs — including fentanyl — illegal firearms possession, and COVID-19 benefits and loan fraud."

An indictment is merely an allegation. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law.

The letters SFV of the Peckerwoods Gang signify “San Fernando Valley” as well as the acronym “Searching for Victims.”





After conviction, the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) will scatter these neo-Nazis to different maximum security prisons in the US to prevent re-constitution. These miscreants will then join other white supremacist gangs behind bars.

You wonder what their parents must be thinking.

These SFV maniacs were busted through RICO laws and a COVID-19 Fraud Task Force.

And the FBI has been slowly, but steadily, finding and prosecuting the Jan 6 miscreants. Per the DOJ:

"In the 44 months since 6 Jan 2021, more than 1,504 suspects have been charged in nearly all 50 states for crimes related to attacking the US Capitol, including more than 560 seditionists charged with feloniously assaulting or impeding law enforcement. The FBI investigation remains ongoing."

Anyone with tips can call 1-800-CALL-FBI (800-225-5324) or visit tips.fbi.gov.

If these Peckerwoods think themselves "superior beings", I'd like to know - Superior to what? Slime mold?

Does federal prison do that? I don't think so.

These convicts will never become contributing members of society even after their time in prison is done.
