Fresno was in a free fall of hopelessness.
In the year 1992, gangs ruled the streets and were a major cause of 87 homicides.
Night after night on the evening news and day after day in the newspaper, gang violence was rampant.
Over 14,000 vehicles were stolen that year, earning Fresno national notoriety as the car-theft capital of the U.S., second only to Newark, New Jersey.
In a national survey of most desirable places to live, Fresno ranked last.
227 out of 227.
The cycle of anger and fear had to be broken.
