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.
Feb. 28, 2010 at 5:52 p.m.
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...

May 5, 2010 at 9:37 p.m.
Queen, I'm just wondering. He was a gangster. They do bad things. Does it bother you that the deceased did some terrible things to other people?
May 5, 2010 at 10:05 p.m.
MR. Sn107vak, Rest in 5odice? What a joke.. keep your gangbang crap out of here u and ur life style are the reason he's dead! Enjoy
May 6, 2010 at 9:45 a.m.
do u and this yuri guy live together???? I thought they were changing this.....u know people have no life when they're still disrespecting a man's memory who's been gone since last year.......Silver Spoon fed Cowards....both of you guys
May 6, 2010 at 2:09 p.m.
Like i said.......banned...every single post...but they post this guys hate...every single post...Another guy gloating over someone's death...i thought the paper was changing this.....He doesn't know this man.....it says share a memory ..not be an idiot
May 6, 2010 at 2:15 p.m.
Cali, If you want to get into semantics, how about letting everyone post memories, good and BAD.
Theres no sugar coating this guys charachter. He was a gangster and commited vile acts.
May 6, 2010 at 3:21 p.m.
Where can I find this bible that says gangsters go to heaven.
May 6, 2010 at 5:23 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.
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.
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.
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....
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.
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.
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.....
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

— queen biiiitch .... you personally know three dead men who in all probability are gangsters?
Most people in this country go to their graves as old men (or woman) without ever knowing a single homicide victim. But you know three!
How can that happen? You one of those gangster ladies?

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.
Aug. 29, 2010 at 11:21 a.m.
Sabrina-
What?

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.
