Page "Raymond Washington" Paragraph 18

Eventually Washington became disillusioned with the Crips as the gang committed more heinous and senseless crimes as new recruits to the gang sought to build their reputations.

According to law enforcement and former gang members Washington started to distance himself from the Crips.

Ultimately Washington decided that the Crips needed to be brought back under one umbrella organization ( as many new " sets " were formed after Washington and others went to jail ).

According to close friends, Washington wanted to return the Crips to one unified organization, stop fighting amongst the gang and then work towards a truce with the Bloods.

Apparently this didn't sit well with some gang members and proved to be a fatal move for Washington.
