Just as the gang members pile into a lowrider to drive off another car with two women pulls up. Meanwhile, the Bloods in the alley drive to a nearby basketball court and inform their fellow gang members about the "E-Rickets" (a disrespectful term for East Coast Crips) funeral nearby. The church deacon peeks outside a window and notices the Bloods congregating in the alley but, after thinking about it, decides against informing anyone about it in order to avoid an inevitable conflict. The young Blood leaves and returns to the area with two more Bloods, who then summon other Bloods driving by. After being restrained by the police Cartoon and the Crips leave the scene.ĭays later, at Lil Cartoon's funeral, the Crips are mourning and listening to the pastor's eulogy while outside a teenage member of the Mad Swan Bloods, a gang located in the same neighborhood as the church, notices the Crip funeral while walking down an alley across the street from the church. One of the Crips, Devonte's best friend Cartoon (Treyvon Green), approaches the crime scene and becomes enraged at the finding of his namesake dead in the gas station lot. While the detectives conduct their investigation a car pulls up with several members of the East Coast Crips. From the eyewitness accounts of the shooting the detectives surmise that Devonte was the intended target of the shooters. When the LAPD homicide detectives arrive at the scene they learn that Devonte is a member of the East Coast Crips street gang and went by the street moniker "'Lil Cartoon". In 1988, a 19-year-old man named Devonte Jones is murdered one evening at a gas station in South Central Los Angeles, shot to death by unknown assailants as he gets out of his car. The dramatization is interspersed with commentary from members of several Los Angeles street gangs including The Athens Park Bloods, The Gardena Payback Crips, The Campanella Park Pirus (Who are different from the bloods), and the Grape Street Watts Crips.
The film consists of the dramatization of an actual incident regarding the murder of Bloods gang member Darryl "Poo Bear" Young (director Billy Wright's cousin) who was murdered in a gang-related shooting in 1988. This direct-to-video effort features live concert footage of the late rappers Tupac Shakur and Notorious B.I.G. This fact-based urban drama offers a moving, unforgettable account of the effect a drive-by shooting has upon the community, from the families, to the friends and neighbors of the victims, and the perpetrators.

The director of the movie was Billy Wright. The movie also stars Treyvon Green and Cynthia Berry. Dead Homiez was filmed on location in South Central Los Angeles. Their most fierce rivalries are with almost all Piru hoods, due to the on-going race-wars between African-Americans and Hispanics in South Central, Los Angeles. The CV155 do not have any known allies outside of the Mexican Mafia and are usually hostile towards nearly all Sureños gangs on the streets.
Other rivals include the Acacia Blocc Compton Crips, Spook Town Compton Crips, Farm Dog Compton Crips (a.k.a the A.T.F) and the Mona Park Compton Crips. Among African-American gangs, rivals include the Original Block Piru 151, Campanella Park Pirus, West Side Piru, 145 Neighborhood Pirus, Cedar Block Piru, Tree Top Pirus, the Palmer Blocc Compton Crips and the Park Village Compton Crips. Like many other Hispanic gangs, outside of prison, the CV155 have waged war with other Sureño gangs such as the Compton Varrio Tortilla Flats, Compton Varrio 70's, Compton Varrio Alondra 13 and the Compton Varrio Lokos 13. Members are known to attend Enterprise Middle School and Compton High School, starting rivalries with other street gangs far removed from their territory. Most members of the Compton Varrio 155 live on 155th Street and the medium sized trailer park home on 156th Street. Their territory stretches from Central Avenue in the West, Tajauta Avenue in the East, 154th Street in the North and 156 Street in the South. This Sureños gang has been around for the past three decades and has become one of the most well known Hispanic gangs in Compton. The South Side (S/S) Compton Varrio 155 (or CV155) is a small Latin-American street gang located on the west side of Compton, California.
