True Crime
Rene "Boxer" Enriquez grew up in East L.A., where gang
fights and drive-by shootings were everyday occurrences
fueled by rage, drugs, and alcohol. Sent to prison at
nineteen, he was recruited by La Eme, the near-mythic
Mexican Mafia, arguably the most well-armed and dangerous
gang in American history. A young man without fear who would
kill without hesitation, Enriquez's loyalty and iron will
drove him quickly up the ranks, from mob enforcer to the
upper echelons, where he would help rule for nearly two
decades. Seeking respect, he devoted his life to a bloody
cause, only to find betrayal and disillusionment.
Award-winning journalist Chris Blatchford's The Black
Hand is an astonishing look deep inside a closed,
secret, and deadly criminal society—an intense and
unprecedented tale of depravity, violence, and redemption.
