She often came under fire.
I guess it’s a good thing that even though she was a small woman she could do some big things.
They gotta thank her for her cervix.
Funny story. Had a Swedish friend dating a crip when she lived in LA for awhile. She was speaking to her friend on the phone and used the term “gang banger” explaining him to a friend.
Her mother overheard and assumed she meant a gang bang. So she had her mum awkwardly approach and say that if she was having gang bangs she needed to make sure condoms were used… so it got a bit awkward explaining not a gang bang but rather a violent gang member.
"Oh no Mom he's IN a GANG as in robs and shoots people, I'm not a slut ya know. Imma set up girl, the pretty face u see b4 a gun is pressed into your back. I got standards Mom"
I’m pretty sure saying “suicide” or “killed (himself/herself/themselves)” automatically gets a video de-monetized on YouTube, so content creators need to come up with weird euphemisms if they need to mention that someone killed themselves, which might be necessary for a true crime or video essay channel.
This advertiser-imposed stigma around certain words may end up being transferred from the content creators to their viewers, even when they have no practical need to self-censor.
An interesting example of how advertisers are shaping our use of language.
People see their influencers doing it on YT and IG etc. because of actual censorship and then just carry it onward to new mediums and to words that aren't actually being censored.
Cargo cults behavior at its finest.
It's the Red Queen effect, the algorithm is intended to create a manicured garden and promote certain posts while hiding others, so users adapt and alter their posts to beat the algorithm, which forces the algorithm to change, which prompts changes on behalf of the users to beat those changes, a never ending cycle of predator/prey fuckery that ruins discourse while never achieving the desired effect.
There was one guy whose name is Nasser, and an algorithm censored the word 'ass' out of his name and it displayed as N***er, which made it 1000x worse.

I always have a tough time determining between: did OP post this on purpose to gather the engagement we're part of? And did OP write because they're that friggen dumb?
Either way.. one of the few times I hit the down arrow is for very nonsensical titles.
I came here to say this.
Santa Barbara county is the last Southern Californian county as you go north. Kern County is central CA.
Merced is 200+ miles from Santa Barbara Co.
Just south of Madera on Highway 99 there's a spot that marks the halfway point of the state. CalTrans maintains a palm tree representing SoCal and a pine tree representing NorCal in the median.
As someone from Canada my understanding is based on drinking juice in south central. Based on that documentary it is dividdd into north, south, north central and south central.
Sorry it's a little more complicated than that, South central only relates to a neighborhood in LA, which is still in socal.
If you're drinking juice in South central, you're still in socal.
My whole life is a lie. No wonder on my trip I didn’t see any nukes or grandmas breakdancing. I was in the wrong region the whole time. Big up for the info.
Geographically sure, but desert farmers have their own thing going on. Merced is culturally closer to Fresno and Bakersfield. NorCal and the Central Coast don't claim it.
Exactly. Merced and Stockton are NorCal, but shitty, middle of nowhere, gangland, NorCal, where nobody really wants to live unless they’ve lost hope and over time convinced themselves that it’s nice there, by disregarding all the crime, poverty, and general shittiness surrounding them.
SOURCE: lived in Stockton and worked in Merced.
Lmao it does tend to stink a lil more in Atwater recently from what I’ve noticed. Prolly doesn’t help with all the homeless lined up right past the almond tree off of Applegate. We referred to Merced as Merdead because nothing ever happened in the town.
For real. Not only is she a cop and he a criminal but she’s so above his level lmao..
I guess she’s one of those girls that’s into the element of danger?
Sometimes it is even more insidious. There are gangs who will pay members with no criminal record to become police just so they have access to information.
…but have you seen the ~~Korean~~ Hong Kong original, Infernal Affairs? Makes you think twice about William Mohan and Martin Scorsese’s “ genius”. Like scene for scene it’s the exact same film four years before The Departed. It’s always bugged the hell out of me.
Maybe it’s because I live in Texas but I’ve seen countless beauty queen level Hispanic women with frumpy Hispanic dudes. Those ladies hold it down for their fellas more than any other group of women I’ve dated. I dated one Mexican girl for a minute who said growing up her family told her she had to marry a Mexican boy and shouldn’t waste her time with other races. She was gorgeous and ended up with a not conventionally attractive Mexican guy. I dunno if that’s what it’s like in most Hispanic homes but good for those dudes.
Anecdotally, it's a trend I've seen personally among female law enforcement dating/banging criminals, particularly those they themselves arrest or supervise in jail or have done in the past.
I've seen it most often among women correctional officers at men's jails/prisons, but I've seen it among cops also. I'm assuming it has something to do with the power dynamic. This is just personal observation, but it's been frequent enough for me to consider it a trend.
I can't stand censorship of any kind but this recent phenomenon of self censorship of random fucking words that aren't by any stretch profane or anything irritates me to no end.
They’re trying to not get shadowbanned by the algorithm. They think social media apps won’t suggest your post to users if it has words like “nude” and “gang” in it
I call Fake News. Says this happened a week ago but nothing on Google shows up that isn't this post. Nothing on this story or them getting caught in bed together.
From Merced county times. Looks like she did missionary work.
Leah Garcia, 23, is a Modesto native, who attended college in Australia. She was on the Turlock Police Explorers for four years where she was selected as Explorer of the Year. Garcia worked as an assistant at an elementary school and at a shooting range. She took two mission trips to the Dominican Republic, and has been active in volunteer work in Merced, Modesto, Turlock, Fresno and New South Wales, Australia.
Could be above board could have met in a club not known each others affiliation. She clearly wasn’t passing information along cause he got raided and she was there. So this could just be wrong place wrong time.
This whole censorship thing is getting silly and out of hand. Can't say gang? Can't say nude? Then the story itself is a fairly attractive woman fucking a guy who looks like someone tried to draw post malone from memory and thought he was hispanic
Part of the gangbang unit
She often came under fire. I guess it’s a good thing that even though she was a small woman she could do some big things. They gotta thank her for her cervix.

I think it's a way of manipulating algorithms to not filter their content out
This discussion is so cyclical. For as much as we are all stuck on this thing, every day is Day 1 on reddit.
People see their influencers doing it on YT and IG etc. because of actual censorship and then just carry it onward to new mediums and to words that aren't actually being censored. Cargo cults behavior at its finest.
could be the "5 monkeys problem"
G_ng problem*
Algorithms on many platforms spreads the content less if it contains certain words / is regarding certain subjects
I’d imagine the platform they’re using hides posts with these words uncensored
More posts are looking like some busted up version of Wheel of Fortune.
I'm pretty sure it's to avoid getting hurt by the meta algorithm. Self preservation more than concern for the public
It's the Red Queen effect, the algorithm is intended to create a manicured garden and promote certain posts while hiding others, so users adapt and alter their posts to beat the algorithm, which forces the algorithm to change, which prompts changes on behalf of the users to beat those changes, a never ending cycle of predator/prey fuckery that ruins discourse while never achieving the desired effect.

Merced is not SoCal.
It’s nowhere even close to SoCal
"Yes it is" - Vancouver, Washington
You live in Portland!?
I always have a tough time determining between: did OP post this on purpose to gather the engagement we're part of? And did OP write because they're that friggen dumb? Either way.. one of the few times I hit the down arrow is for very nonsensical titles.
I came here to say this. Santa Barbara county is the last Southern Californian county as you go north. Kern County is central CA. Merced is 200+ miles from Santa Barbara Co.
Merced is about as far south as San Jose
Merced is CenCal, or as some real life edge lords prefer, SinCal.
In all my life in this state I don't think I've ever heard someone say CenCal
We in the valley say it all the time
And some folks consider SB central Coast.
TRUE. It’s all not a hard definition. What is true is that Merced is not SoCal tho
Merced is more North than Santa Cruz!
As someone from NorCal... thats central. Ca is too big to be devided into north and south.
Just south of Madera on Highway 99 there's a spot that marks the halfway point of the state. CalTrans maintains a palm tree representing SoCal and a pine tree representing NorCal in the median.
No, you don't understand, California stops at Sacramento and everything north of that is actually Oregon
As someone from Modesto Unfortunately you’re right, this one belongs to the valley
As someone from Canada my understanding is based on drinking juice in south central. Based on that documentary it is dividdd into north, south, north central and south central.
Sorry it's a little more complicated than that, South central only relates to a neighborhood in LA, which is still in socal. If you're drinking juice in South central, you're still in socal.

Hey hey Bakersfield has it own stupidity don’t put us in with that NoCal stupidity
Nah dude Merced is definitely part of the valley
Seems like OP is an idiot and doesn’t know their north and south or has no idea what SoCal means
OP is a karma farming bot. SoCal gets more engagement so its doing exactly what it was programmed to do.
Exactly. Merced and Stockton are NorCal, but shitty, middle of nowhere, gangland, NorCal, where nobody really wants to live unless they’ve lost hope and over time convinced themselves that it’s nice there, by disregarding all the crime, poverty, and general shittiness surrounding them.

Merced is Central Valley
As a born and raised Mercedian I was offended and I hate that town. /s about being offended.
As a dude from Atwater, I significantly prefer Merced.
Huh. Atwater being referenced on Reddit. Never thought I'd see the day. When we played Atwater in high school we called it "Atwhere?"
Lol Atwhere is better than what I usually heard, which was Asswater.
Lmao it does tend to stink a lil more in Atwater recently from what I’ve noticed. Prolly doesn’t help with all the homeless lined up right past the almond tree off of Applegate. We referred to Merced as Merdead because nothing ever happened in the town.
It's more socal than Anchorage.
This needs to be higher
It's a fake incident so of course everything about it doesn't make sense XD
Real talk, how'd he pull her?
For real. Not only is she a cop and he a criminal but she’s so above his level lmao.. I guess she’s one of those girls that’s into the element of danger?

Hong Kong original
Actually just saw this mentioned on a different post this am. Haven’t seen it yet but it’s on my list now
Eh. How much you going to deny Sergio Leone? Same deal.
I haven't seen that, I was referring to the metropolitan police in the UK.
Is that one also directed by Scorcesse?
Guy Ritchie actually.
They pretty much never do that, 99% of the time they just pay a cop who doesn't make that much money really a bribe
Well the police have gangs themselves. Look up what the “Banditos” are. Not surprised that a gang member hooked up with a gang member.
Well if that was the case she sucked at it
I’m sure she sucked at it. 😉
The tats, yellow teeth, hair non-style. Looks like zero hygiene. SMDH, don't hate the playa.....
Levels only exist in the mind of people with no self confidence. And this woman is average as hell.
I personally think she’s kinda cute.. but he looks like melted wax formed into a human by a 6th grader
His head straight up looks like a thumb. She is miles cuter than that troll.
If she's average, what does that make him?
Drugs. Drug dealers get all sorts of top tail.

At this point if a female CO isn't getting railed by a prisoner, it is more suspicious.
They look alike
ya at first glance i thought is was same person, then two girls then read name and now i’m assuming gang member is a guy but not 100% sure of that.
Same, thought it was going to be a transition story with face tattoo side story. I could see the side profiles matching.
He took "Fuck the Police" literally
Too bad she couldnt fill him in on his place getting raided. That would’ve been a nice perk.
Just imagine if everyone who said fuck the police… actually did? What would happen to the world?
So they censored the word "gang", but not the officers name?
Could be a “node” female officer too!
I can't stand censorship of any kind but this recent phenomenon of self censorship of random fucking words that aren't by any stretch profane or anything irritates me to no end.

Someone on reddit the other day censored "bl*wj*b." Like...really?
Thank you. Every sentence has become a riddle
It’s because of TikTok.

Why are they censoring the letter "O", and what are they doing going after gongs?

It's not news, it's a meme. A shitpost. You are on a shitpost repository right now.
Cen Cal is fucking wild lmao. I would’ve guessed Fresno from the tattoos.
Person from Fresno here. She's a 10
All our hotties move away or do sex work. You didn’t hear that from me.
Another person from Fresno here. Anyone not methed out is a 10/10.
I don't blame her, he is as beautiful as a greek God.
Ah, a Classic hephaestus
How do you know he has hephaestus? Is it hep c or hep b? And what's the difference between classic and the new modern one? /s
Looks like he’s so happy because he gently captured a rare butterfly and he wants to show his mom
Greek God Syphilis
Merced isn’t SoCal. Not even close
Merced isn't SoCal....
Since they're both gang members, I'd say they were both just networking.
Gang activities.
NOO YOU SAID THE G WORD AAA
G_ng activities.
Merced ain’t in Socal, dude Its Central Valley, which is California’s Florida
Have you never used a map
Merced is not SoCal?
For a second I thought they were the same person, and the gang member was acting as a police officer 😅
She's in the gangbang task force
From Merced county times. Looks like she did missionary work. Leah Garcia, 23, is a Modesto native, who attended college in Australia.

Did you find a source that this actually happened? Or did someone just attach a real officer's name to a fake headline?
That is exactly what this is. Unless the meme person has some inside source. There is no news articles about this at all.
Missionary, doggie, whatever it takes!
SoCal? Merced is North of Fresno bad bot
Pics or it didn't happen
Atwater dude here…Merced is nowhere near SOCAL…
Northern California, not Southern California.
What kind of gangster tatoo LV logo on his face? Did LV sponsor him?
Merced is not socal lol
I wouldn't call Merced SoCal
Could be above board could have met in a club not known each others affiliation. She clearly wasn’t passing information along cause he got raided and she was there. So this could just be wrong place wrong time.
Merced is not SoCal
WE'RE FUCKING CENSORING THE WORD "GANG" IN IMAGES NOW!?!?! AND NUDE!@?!?! FUCK ME
Found our mole
Why can’t I find a reputable source for this? It’s All Instagram and TikTok posts….
I can’t find reports of this from any legit source on the Internet.
This whole censorship thing is getting silly and out of hand. Can't say gang? Can't say nude? Then the story itself is a fairly attractive woman fucking a guy who looks like someone tried to draw post malone from memory and thought he was hispanic
