On episode 4, Alex Alonso sits down with Leroy "Chico" Brown who grew up in Compton, California, specifically Corner Poccet Crip hood. Chico talks about getting shot at 12 years old, the killing of Orlando Anderson which occurred between the Michael and Jerry Stone of Poccet Hood and how he started small time hustling with marijuana to buying kilos of cocaine with Freeway Ricky Ross. He would eventually land in prison along with Ross when they got entrapped to buy cocaine from a Nicaraguan cocaine trafficker Oscar Danilo Blandon in 1995. Chico also talks about Gary Webb, who linked his case to the CIA in his book, "Dark Alliance" and he believes that Webb did not commit suicide.
