He was four years old the first time he took a car. He could not reach the pedals. He ran La Eme from a solitary cell for four years, and none of that was the hardest thing he did — the hardest thing was watching his own son walk onto the same prison yard. On the Chino yard in nineteen seventy-seven he never touched William Gonzales; the three men who killed him were there because Kilroy said so. He also said Joe Morgan was no Godfather.

Ernest Roybal — Kilroy — came up in White Fence in Boyle Heights, sold heroin, and in nineteen sixty-two became the first from his barrio in the Mexican Mafia at San Quentin, the organization Luis "Huero Buff" Flores started. He ran it from a security housing unit on coded kites, was stabbed at Tehachapi in nineteen eighty-eight, and in nineteen ninety-three left alive without debriefing. He died in East Los Angeles in twenty twenty-one. From court testimony, the Ninth Circuit record, Rene "Boxer" Enriquez's account, and his own interviews.

This video does not glorify or endorse gang activity. It is a documentary account drawn from public records, court filings, and recorded interviews, intended for mature audiences.
