The
Mexican Mafia, also known as the New Family, is
a militant revolutionary group in the California
Prison System. They are known to use violent and
disruptive attacks against the California Department
of Correction Authority. They engage in rebellion,
insurrection and destruction of Prison property.
This group is made up of primarily Mexican-American
convicts from the barrios of East Los Angeles. They
have expanded power outside of the penal facilities
and are organized into ethnic groups who are trying
to control narcotics, contract killings, robbery
and forgery. This group is antiblack and has aligned
itself with the Aryan Brotherhood, a white supremacy
movement .
