rewatched this for first time since it came out. funny to see that cast that young. Unintentionally hilarious seeing beverly hills jews act white boy gangsta. still cant believe those kids thought offing the brother was a superior option to just dropping him off.

can you give more detail on what they and the scene was like?

I grew up with hard ass dudes exactly like these guys but we were from shitty east coast hell holes. It strange because people always laugh at "whites boys acting ghetto" but there is a certain type of white dude that you really just dont want to fuck with. maybe its old cowboy dna or something.

The murder itself wasn't that sensational, while it was bad keep in mind there had been plenty of big murders in the area. The Medendez brothers went to Calabasas, and this was not that long after the Ninja Murders ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Murders_of_Gerald_and_Vera_Woodman ) which didn't get as much national press as the others but still were a huge deal in the community. EDIT: it was also only a few years after Nicole Parker's murder https://www.dailynews.com/2007/02/18/rocked-by-tragedy/

The Parker deal was a tough one and I'm still upset about it, but yea that area was accustomed to horrible murders.

What was crazy was that Jesse ran and it took a long time to catch him, they finally got him in Brazil (I believe). But law enforcement was looking for him, and they knew about most of my friends and were doing surveillance. It was crazy, any time any of these got arrested for DUI or something, while they were in jail they would get pulled out and an investigator would start asking about Jesse. A lot of my friends were obviously on some sort of watch list and there were a few years that you knew that if you talked to some of these guys on the phone that you had to be aware of what you said (as it was possible agents had tapped the phone). That was the part that was crazy.

EDIT: while the murder was shocking, these were kids that didn't grow up in the big-name gated communities and their parents were not wealthy, so there was a general attitude that these were trash kids doing trash kid stuff.

I have sat down to write some of this stuff out, but whenever I do I have the tone all wrong. It just comes out like "Kids," which is not at all what it was like. I suppose what is remarkable about most of this is how banal all of this seemed at the time.

EDIT: really, the movie (Alpha Dog) did a serviceable job at capturing the feel. Also, Bing Ring was about basically the same thing - that wild youth culture - and did a decent job capturing it as well.

EDIT: the other places that I've lived were not like that. Guys were rowdy, drank & fought, but not like that. Even by buddies who were from deep South/ Appalachian mountains area were taken back by how wild these dudes were when they visited.

My guess is to why this was is that it's this lingering culture of the old west, a lot of these guys had family that had been in SoCal for a long time, and their parents were hard as well. The second thing is that all of these guys smoked a ton of weed from an early age, like every day since middle school, and by high school they all were doing coke and mushrooms and everything else they could get their hands on.
