MCLAIN HOUSE
I arrive home a little late. The boys have already had their dinner and are upstairs working on their schoolwork. Blondie is cleaning up the kitchen and says, “Dinner hour is long past. Where the hell have you been? Why didn’t you call? We could have waited a bit.”
I explain I have been looking into the Rialto gangs.
Blondie is startled. She looks up from doing the dishes. She wants to know why I am interested all of a sudden in the Rialto gangs. She is aware they are very violent and doesn’t want to have anything to do with them. Also doesn’t want her husband, Gene, involved with them either. She has heard talk around the police department where she works about how violent they are.
I calm her down and say it is nothing really, just a story one of the guys in the news dep
