The AP reports that an L.A. gang member has been sentenced to 6 years in jail for carjacking.
Kody "Monster" Scott pleaded no contest, and his book, titled Monster: The Autobiography of an L.A. Gang Member is where he made all his confessions, thereby landing him in jail.
The article goes into a bit more regarding all the hoopla that was involved, and the article also mentions that a movie is in the works. Oh joy.
Library Journal has said the book, “is account begins at age 11, when he was inducted into the ranks of the Crips, and ends (hundreds of bodies later) with Scott serving a seven-year prison term for beating a crack dealer. Throughout, he successfully conveys a sense of the siege mentality that prevails every minute of every day, due to the daily barrage of gang-on-gang violence.”
