I recently returned for my dogs funeral with my newly made wife. However when we got there the dogs body had been eaten by children and the coffin burnt. My wife then got kidnapped and in exchange for my wife the mobsters wanted me to take my life, naturally I shot my wife instead. I must say the city is growing on me and I decided to join the gang that kidnapped my late wife. I think I will be staying for a while.

Lots of love,

Bennybabe

Crime levels are unbelievable.
Cops corruption is pretty high.
Murder rate is about 122 per 100.000 people.

Kidnapping is frequent, gangs are equipped with war guns, such as Russians RPG (yes, so fucked up) grenades, Ak-47 and even better rifles that I don't even know the name. Military corruption is also damn pretty high.

9.7/10 crimes go unsolved.

Massive assaults in Malls are getting common now. Assaults in the streets are savage. Press is completely censored, only on Internet you will watch real news.

Past 10pm it's totally impossible to walk alone during night, there are robbers patroling the streets looking for people instead of cops
#carlos on Apr 28, 2015 :
you cannot walking alone during night, that is suicide, better prepare to die if you do it
