Summaries

A sleazy gangster has a gang of young girls commit robberies and prostitution for him by getting them hooked on drugs.

Joe leads a criminal gang of young people--teens and young adults, mostly females. A drug dealer and pusher, he gets them hooked on drugs using marijuana as a gateway to harder drugs such as heroin. Needing their fixes and unable to pay for the drugs otherwise, the young people willingly commit crimes for him, such as robbery, grand theft auto, and prostitution to pay for the drugs, which ends up being a vicious circle from which they cannot escape--even if they so wished. While Joe has told them no violence in committing their crimes, their judgment may be impaired in their primary focus of the money and the associated drugs.—Huggo
