Homicide Report > Mulindwa Traylor, 24

Mulindwa Traylor, 24

Died Nov. 10, 2009 at 2:29 a.m.

Mulindwa Traylor, a 24-year-old black man, was shot and killed Tuesday, Nov. 10, in the 1500 block of West 55th Street in Harvard Park, authorities said.

Los Angeles Police Det. Carlos Velasquez said Traylor was a documented member of the 55 Neighborhoods gang who was driving about 1:45 a.m. when he thought he saw a friend.

Velasquez said police determined that at that time, Traylor got out of his car and walked up to the man, a male black, and realized he was actually a rival gang member.

The shooter, a documented member of the 107 Hoovers, asked Traylor where he was from and shot him several times, Velasquez said. The man was arrested over the weekend, and Velasquez said he will be charged by Tuesday morning.

Velasquez declined to identify the suspect until charges are filed.

DespisediKon50, why do you suppose hes in heaven?

If hes a gangster, that means he's a sociopath. That also means there's no room in heaven for him. He's in the other place with all of his other "homies" who rob, terrorize and kill.

To u ignorant people portraying this man as a gangster u don't know anything about him nor have u walked a day in his shoes so what's make you think u are making it to heaven for judging this man. He was human just like anyone else I don't give a damn where he was from no one has a right to take a life. Women have the right to give one. So don't speak up on someone who you know nothing about except what the articles say. Police officers are uniformed gang members that kill every day but we fail to realize that why because they are paid killers and carry a badge right? So all u negative people need to STFU and realize this man was somebodys son, dad, cousin, brother, uncle, nephew and friend. R.I.P. brother aka Mulindwa Traylor of course ur in heaven because u were an Angel, a baptised Christian and a prophet of God....love u always ur SiS...

— CALI
May 6, 2010 at 2:15 p.m.

Not all Gangsters are killers, Not all gangsters kill and rob. You dont kno what he participated in. Its gangsters who just Party, and some who are coo with everyone then you have your gangmembers who are murderers..55 is a active gang and they have enemies like any other gang in the area. If you hangin out in LA after 10 i odnt care if u bang or not u will get shot at.

— leroy lovejoy
May 6, 2010 at 5:59 p.m.

I don't care what he did...this is someone's father,son,family member....God will be the ultimate judge of him...not you...and you don't even know these individuals.... to say anything good or bad...Again you talk of him like you know him.The force can use a guy like yourself...a young know it all racist...Get a girlfriend ,do something with your life....And learn how to spell.

— CALI
May 6, 2010 at 7:55 p.m.

Ahhh, the old RACIST trick. CALI by using that weak ploy, you have told everyone here you are a mental midget, and have lost all credibility in this discussion. You cant find anywhere, in anyone's comment, anything RACIST. All other post from you after your last one will be ignored.

— Eye Opener
May 6, 2010 at 9:35 p.m.

Speak For Yourself.......Maybe you will Ignore me....but who cares......I call it as i see it..you guys only comment on minorities....If you cant see what you guys are saying is racist....you must be mentally retarded...you dont have to say it...READ BETWEEN THE LINES........who cares if some idiot ignores me......Name yourself brain opener....

— CALI
May 7, 2010 at 9:21 a.m.

What do you guys think you are accomplishing by disrespecting peoples memory...Please elaborate on it......is it gonna change things, no. Are you going to come to the hood and help stop this, no. All you going to do is play Armchair Detective....Spewing these perfect scenarios as how you think people should live their lives........You Idiots make me sick with this Ranting and Raving on all these families members memories....and go back and read some of syscums posts ...Racist as hell...Like i give a Hoot about you ignoring me.......I SPEAK TRUTH.

— CALI
May 7, 2010 at 9:33 a.m.

Newsflash, Cali:

In case you haven't noticed, BY FAR the majority of the homicides in LA involve hispanics and blacks. Do you dispute that? Is that racist? Hell, you don't even know what race people are. If every single day in Malibu or Sherman Oaks there were roving bands of white thug gangbangers going around murdering people, you bet your little race-card playin' azz I'd be commenting on that too. But the fact remains, THAT'S NOT THE CASE. These are black and brown neighborhoods being destroyed from within by gangster scum, not white neighborhoods. These are, in the vast majority of cases, black and brown gangsters doing the killing. And, last but certainly not least, these are mainly black and brown victims. That is not an opinion, that is fact. Please dispute that. If you can't handle truth then get on the sideline, son.

— Chris
May 7, 2010 at 1:34 p.m.

NEWSFLASH MR .DUMMY....I Know what color the individuals are.....What is the purpose of you saying that??? I read all of these guys comments and they are racist......PERIOD....i guess that's the only thing you can say....I LIVE IN THA HOOD ..I KNOW WHAT GOES ON.....I'm sick of you people who never lived here.. Trying to judge everyone who dies.....I Live in Oakland.....CAN one of you please tell me your purpose of doing this?? You Idiots trampling over peoples loved ones....GOD IS THE ULTIMATE JUDGE.......not you Armchair Neighborhood activist.....Please Elaborate on your purpose for doing this....I'm Waiting.....

— CALI
May 7, 2010 at 2:22 p.m.

Cali, I personally want the facts about the deceased to be true. I cant stand it when these sociopaths are made out to be innocent misunderstood individuals that all are good family men who love their families.

I have no qualms in reminding their "supporters" and the world, just how evil they truly were.

And as Chris had written. If I come across a white or asian gangster, I will judge them as harshly as a Latino or Black gangster. And for those rare times when a white gangster does end up on this blog, I have done exactly that. Judge them harshly.

I still miss you. Nothing will ever let me forget you. I wish we could have hung out all the times we planned but I thought I would run into you agin in the hood like I always did so I always told u ill call u later. Now all I have is the memories of when and how we first met. Everytime u saw me u made it a point to turn back around n get out ur car evn if I didn't see you. I cnt forget those times. The last time I seen u, u had jus got the cast off ur arm. Wen ii was younger we use to hang out so much I thought we were together lol bt as I got older I realized wat kinda relationship we had n thts ok bcuz u always chckd up on me. Unlike other niggaz tht toot it and boot it. I can go on for ever cuz I am gtn too sad. I kno u r lookn down and u kno who this is...see you again one day

Aug. 29, 2010 at 8:24 a.m.

How can anyone be a member of a gang and declared to be a sweet and wonderful person, let alone a good father?

— sabrina aka ladydevil, the deceased was a member of a criminal enterprise that exists solely to inflict terror and other crimes upon society. Don't sugarcoat it.

He and his gang have blood on their hands and perhaps you should empathize with the other mothers who had their loved ones killed or wrecked by gangsters like yours.

How can wanting people to act with good moral intentions be in any way racist?

It seems that if anyone points out any wrong doing of any person of color they are automatically a racist.
If people keep throwing the word around at every drop of the hat, it’s eventually going to lose its real meaning when identifying a real racist.

You ignorant gang bangers shooting people for nothing will get yours one day? Does that make you tough? What are you fighting for and hope to accomplish? You dont even own the ground you walk on. YOu are plain and simple illiterate hoods.

— TheOne
Dec. 12, 2012 at 10:04 a.m.

This violence needs to stop. And other residents of LA can't just pretend that if we don't see it, it's not our problem, or that it's our problem only because of financial reasons. Realize this entire situation stemmed from years, years, and years back. Be proactive and try to help those in the communities who want options to change their lives. Most have never been offered any.

— A
Dec. 13, 2012 at 12:59 p.m.

— A ; every election day, the people of these killing fields have a chance to institute change.

And what do they do? reelect the same do nothing politicians that serve up the same promises and to blame the same people.

Decade after decade after decade.

Like a broken record. Or a scene out of groundhog day.

— syscom3
Dec. 14, 2012 at 6:02 p.m.

"Do nothing" in your opinion means not locking up every single presumed, confirmed, and former gang member. Am I right?

I suggest you look up the writings of Father Gregory Boyle, syscom3. Get a new perspective.

— A
Dec. 16, 2012 at 12:33 a.m.

— A, really father gregory? father gregory is known to protect all the gangs from the Aliso and Pico projects. These gangs kill people that father gregory has services for. Father gregory is part of the problem and NOT a solution. Now for Syscom3 he's straight up racist even though he has never posted actual racist words, but look at all his postings he only targets hispanics and blacks. Any crime committed by a White person Syscom3 never posts anything. He has only done it twice and that's because JAG has initiated the posting.

— Justin
Dec. 17, 2012 at 9:09 a.m.

Justin, your point? Father Greg is an example of compassion to our fellow human being. Now, more than ever after these shootings in CT, the country is on board to stop the instant judgement of "degenerates" of society. You just did that. If you don't see gang crime firsthand like I do, I suggest you shut up.

— A
Dec. 17, 2012 at 6:35 p.m.

— Justin ; you made a lot of accusations that need to be addressed.

First of all, 83% of the homicides in this blog are Latino or black. White homicides are a paltry 12% of which most are victims, not perpetrators. It isn't my fault that few white gangsters are listed in this blog.

Second, whenever a white gangster or criminal does make it onto this list, I use the same harsh words and criticism as black and Latino criminals. Long time readers know that to be a fact and this is not subject to debate.

Third, the editors of this blog only publish a fraction of the comments I make regarding these homicides. Many comments I have made for white homicides, or where I give condolences to black or latino victims of gang violence is not published. Its not my blog, so save your complaints for the editor. Not me.

Once again, I am accused of this and that yet no one can come up with proof or evidence.

As I have said on many occasions, my fondest hope is for the residents of these killing field neighborhoods to have good economic opportunities, good schools, quiet streets and where the leading cause of death is old age.

I agree with you on the part that Father Boyle protects gang members. My cousin lived across the street from Pecan Park on Gless. We would often visit Dolores Mission and get free stuff like blankets and canned food. He did protect a lot of gang members, but the ones he saw 'good' in. The ones he thought he could reform. Just sharing my experience!

Once again the comments above demonstrate how ignorant and heartless a lot of the posters on here are. You don't have to put the word good in quotations, Meck. Have you ever been to Homeboys? Have you even met anybody affiliated with it? Get your judgement of that place out of here because its just straight up ridiculous.

Mind your own, troll. Like I said, I was sharing an experience. I come from East Los (Boyle Heights to be exact) and know about Homeboy Industries. You on the other hand, pretend you know, are always correct and can never be wrong. (According to yourself). Now, like the dude above said, go away. Stop trolling these blogs.

I know you're from Boyle Heights. That's what disgusts me about you. You don't even know how to be decent to your own neighbors. Too bad you don't decide what gets posted on here, so I'm going to say whatever I want to idiots like you. Just as you, MECK, spew hate on these blogs. Like I've said before, I troll the trolls...like you, MECK!

Meck hates all gang members because he's family used car was vandalized by Breed Street Gang and I guess that car must of meant the world to him and his family because he hates gangsters. Meck, I guarantee you the gangster responsible for vandilizing your car don't even remember it and here you are stepping all over the victim's family. Man up and let it go.

-A,

So because Meck isn't a gang sympathizer like you are, you are disgusted? I would really like to think that that may be the stupidest thing I have heard you say. But I'm not gonna say that, because most likely you will say something stupider. You are joking right? If you feel so threatened by him, why are you responding? Sounds like someone likes playing the victim. No, really, you were joking with that comment, right? Let's pretend you're not joking. Shame on you. Anyone who got out of the hood should be praised, not chastised. People like you are part of the problem.

Dec. 27, 2012 at 3:56 p.m.

Ms. Lee,

Where have I ever indicated that I am a gang sympathizer? I work in gang INTERVENTION. In case you didn't know, that is the complete opposite. Meck is hateful and rude to the entire cause. If you have read most of his comments, he throws out insults left and right, completely degrading each person on this blog who has passed away. And for your information, I know PLENTY of people who have found a new life outside of the hood and don't have an inextinguishable hate for ANYONE. You think I'm stupid because I decided to help those less fortunate? Yeah, that's smart. I'd like to know what kind of insight and education both you and Meck have in general. Have either of you made a career out of insulting these people? Nope. The going salary for that is usually $0 per year. I've seen your posts too, and unfortunately dear, you are the ill informed and stupid person, not me or anyone else working in the same field as I.

— A
Dec. 27, 2012 at 5:33 p.m.

Wendy, don't listen to what syscom or any of the jerks say on here, they are NOT experts in what they talk about. The closest thing I've heard that even comes close to a fraction of "expertise" is that syscom took a CJ101 class at a community college. And that's it! None of them have gone to a university, none of them have acquired a social work/therapy lisence nor any achievement in law enforcement. They have also never, in addition to schooling, worked first hand with gangs and/or people of low income within LA. Fortunately, I have done all of those, so I am an expert on this subject, not them. Any rational person who isn't a judgemental angry dummie chooses to get their information from an ACTUAL expert. In the end, it just makes them look bad. By the way, I hope the deceased rests in peace, and happy holidays with warm wishes to his family.

— A
Dec. 28, 2012 at 12:36 p.m.

"wow...looks like the devil aka SYSCOM3 is in the house."

- Ive been called many things but never "the devil".

"you know nothing of what you profess to be an expert...why are you here sir?"

- I am here because I enjoy reading the LA Times. And what about you?

"you seem to be very into the homicide report,"

- I also dont like to watch network TV. Especially American Idol.

"specifically those alleged to be perpetrated by "gang" members. "

- And so do a lot of people.

"what happened to innocent until proven guilty?"

- This is the court of public opinion. Not a court for criminal justice. The deceased at the time of his demise was not charged for any criminal activity (although many people think being a documented gangster should be an offense in itself). We have the right to judge people through their actions, as being or not being a sociopath.

"and in this case, there appears to be no witnesses yet quite a detailed account on what occurred,,,"

- The story does not say if there were witnesses or not. And it does say that a suspect was in custody.
Dont you go attributing facts of evidence to me. I only read the story, not write them.

"hmmm, let me guess SYSCOM3, you work for the police"

- You've made an astounding leap of logic. Try again. You're woefully off the mark.

"and it is the police who committed this murder .... there are no "gangsters" left in the streets, only the homeland security fake gangbangers who are murdering people in the way of big oil."

- LOL. You should be a Hollywood writer. Only something that bizarre as what you wrote can be thought up by someone who has a fertile imagination for fiction.

I am so sorry after reading this blog it disgust me to see how people can be so ignorant, I was born and raised in Boyle Heights and no matter were you live or were you grew up every city has a good and bad it depends on the individual itself. A lot of successful people come out of Boyle Heights.

I guess you forgot about all that crap you posted before on a different person's homicide blog. Remember? You said how dare we say anything about these criminals, they have never had any opportunities, we don't know the history of gangs like you do, so how could we say anything, I'm sure you remember now. Helping the less fortunate is very admirable. But gang members are not the less fortunate. Do you know that? I and others strongly suggested you are not cut out to be a social worker because you are too sympathetic to gang members. I believe at one point you even the other posters on that blog trash. I really don't have time to repeat everything I told you before. But please, you are absolutely a gang sympathizer. Why do you pick on Meck and his loyalty to his old hood? The hell do you care? That to me is the same thing as a thug approaching a stranger and asking him where he is from. I don't know why you have this loyalty to these gang members, but something won't let you leave. Even here you say some garbage about how society is on board to give more sympathy to the denigrates of society due to the shootings in CT. What are you talking about? Yea, that's why gun sales have soared since that happened. The country is on board to shoot first and ask questions later. The Onion isn't really news, you know that right? And I never called you stupid, I said you say stupid things. I don't know if you are stupid, not my call. But hey, live and let live I say. I'm not out to change anybody. You seem to get pissed whenever someone doesn't agree with you. Who cares what Meck hates or doesn't hate? Why do you care? He owes you something because he is from Boyle Heights? And he never said anything violent to you, he just doesn't like you. Accept it and move on. I mean, I'm surprised you have the time to care. Since you are a gang sympathizer, I'd say you aren't working hard enough. Where is your campaign to get us to stop hating that gang member who killed those two people on Christmas Day? Poor kid! He had no opportunities, so bummer, he just had to go driving around with 3 other gang members in the car with a loaded gun. Gee he was just curious as he slow rolled by a crime scene full of police and committed a moving violation. What choice did he have when they tried to pull him over but to flee? Thank God they ditched the gun. Too bad he had to run that red light and slam into a mini van, killing two people, one of them an 11 year old boy. Well gosh darned, he got arrested. Poor guy, so misunderstood, it's not his fault. So is this who we are not supposed to hate? I really want to call you stupid, but I feel like you are at such a disadvantage already, it's like kicking your wooden leg out and walking away. Besides calling you stupid would be an insult to stupid people.

Meck, take your xanax and chill man. It is not that serious. I don't take sides. If a gangster commits a crime he should pay for it and the same applies to cops. Unfortunately, cops as you may already know get away wih murder. All the homicides commited by cops are reported here by the police department, which is obviously bias right off the bat. You and many cop supporters never question the police statements. Just so you know is very easy to lie on these reports. For example, the Carl's Jr in Monterey Park where a young man is carrying an object and was shot 10 times by the Police their report the suspect swang the object at them. Little did they know the incident was capture on video and uploaded in the internet.

Father Gregory is more of a problem than a solution to the gang problem. He protects gangsters that are murderers and criminals. A rival gang member was killed by a gang he protects in the projects and he still had the nerve to have the mass of this rival gang member in the projects. Talk about the ultimate insult.

"Merry Chrismas M512kie aka Baby Devil !!!"

Just wondering what you have to do in the streets to have your "homies" call you "Baby Devil." They obviously don't call him that for no reason.
