There hasn’t been a homicide in Echo park in over 4 years. Crime rates are the lowest they’ve been since the 1950’s. But the LAPD and City Attorney are still moving forward with Gang Injunctions, including the one in Echo Park. Injunctions are a tool used by the city to gentrify neighborhoods. Since they have not been able to make an arrest for a violent crime, the City Attorney’s Office is indicting 9 people for a murder that was caused by a different neighborhood years ago. Two defendants have already been released due to lack of evidence. Pack the Courts! Injunctions Are Injustice!
