Milwaukee Police/US Attorney Take out Gang


Milwaukee police arrested 24 members of the Vice lords, in what they call one of the most dangerous street gangs in Milwaukee. Federal Authorities indicted them on charges of trafficking and money laundering.

Milwaukee Police and Federal authorities have arrest 100 gang members this year, and 98 of them remain behind bars.

Is it just a coincidence that we get a new Police Chief, and all of sudden you see arrest after arrest of gang members? He does his job!!!!

It appears that things are on the right track in Milwaukee Law Enforcement. This is exactly what it is takes to get our streets back. Hats off to Police Chief Ed Flynn and to U.S. Attorney Steven Biskupic for taking on the problems head on.

Side note: It is amazing to see Mayor Tom Barrett. I wasn't really sure he was still around, he must feel safe enough to come out of his bunker.
