Oof, this one’s complicated. Feds say he is—or at least, was—still callin’ shots like he’s got some kinda criminal WiFi. That’s why he got that extra sentencing in the ’90s. They say he ran the gang’s operations through coded messages and prison visits, which honestly sounds straight outta a Netflix docuseries.
But his defenders say nah—he’s older now, more spiritual, focused on rehabilitation, not retaliation. He’s been pushin’ ideas like Growth and Development, where it’s more about community upliftment than gang war. But it’s hard to say what’s real ‘cause prisons ain’t exactly livestreaming these convos.
