All started in the hood. I feel sorry for the legitimate students of Forest Lawn High, but that school and anyone who comes from it has been branded. I guess for at least the past 20 years.

Before FOB and FK, there was the"Runaway Gang."
That's the nickname police investigators gave a ragtag bunch of troublemakers who either attended Forest Lawn High School or spent time hanging around the school a decade ago.
"We watched this group of goofy kids develop into a gang," recalls Henry Hollinger, a retired Calgary police officer who was working in the intelligence unit at the time.
Huu Pham, a 15-year-old from Calgary, was in a fourth-floor Edmonton apartment when a police tactical team burst through the door on Sept. 24, 1999.
Pham and another man fled to the balcony and climbed over the railing. Both died of head injuries when they fell to the pavement below.
Can't ask for a better resolution to the problem then this. How do we get them all to move into highrise apts?
The raid was part of an investigation by RCMP and Edmonton police into a cocainetrafficking organization. Son Nguyen and Tan Diep, who later became members of FOB, were also swept up in the police operation.
"They went to Edmonton as baby gangsters and came back to Calgary as big-time gangsters,"Hollinger says.
It's that damn West Ed mall!
