The gang is named after the Florence area of Los Angeles County; the 13 stands for its allegiance to the Mexican Mafia.[2] They are involved in drug smuggling, murder, assault, robbery, and the killing of African-Americans and East Coast Crips. HistoryFlorencia 13 became well established in South Los Angeles by the 1930s. The gang was named after Florence Avenue. The FBI began targeting Florencia 13 gang members for their roles in attacking African-Americans.[3] According to the FBI, "The jury heard testimony that F13 members indiscriminately targeted African-Americans who were seen in their neighborhoods."[3] At certain times, Florencia 13 leaders ordered killings of the East Coast Crip gang, according to Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Baca.[4] Operation Joker’s WildIn 2007, 102 members of Florencia 13 were listed in indictments, which was named Operation Joker's Wild. This led to the biggest gang raid in American history at this time, with 96 of the 102 of the members being taken into custody by the LAPD.[5] The indictments included charges of drug trafficking, attempted murder, murder and extortion.[5] References1. ^{{cite book|last1=D.
