We were informed about all that was going on and about six months later it came out in the newspapers that the town was under investigation. The drug cartels have a controlling interest in Maywood, Bell, Bell Gardens, Chudahy, Hawaiian Gardens and much of the surrounding towns. I sure wish that member would come back, he really gave us the scoop on allot that is going on in that area.
