The Armenian Power in LA. They apply Italian mob style old-school tactics. Same thing with the Hasidic Jews in LA. I work in fraud analysis in the private sector, I could ramble for hours about those two specific groups.
The Armenians extort locally owned Armenian businesses, they do loan sharking, and they traffic drugs. I regularly see them in healthcare though, committing fraud. They beef with the Jews over healthcare rackets in LA.
The Hasidic Jews are involved in money laundering and fraud. I know of one specific Rabbi who is essentially a boss. He arranges marriages, owns a local community center, and has a crew who extort Jewish owned businesses. He has a “non-profit” and sends his guys to forcefully ask for donations. The Jews in LA are just like the old school Italians.
I could write a book on these groups, but I digress. The Armenians and Jews of LA lol.
