THE GANG ENCYCLOPEDIA

Too many times, the question has been asked by law enforcement around the world, "Why is there not a single comprehensive resource on criminal street gangs, prison gangs, organized crime groups, hate groups, and other security threat groups where law enforcement can conduct the necessary research to both educate themselves about the gangs of the world and/or to assist in identifying a particular gang that may be making their presence known in their jurisdiction.

Over the years, there have been literally thousands of spreadsheets, word documents, pdf's and even stand alone databases spread out to just as many officers but never has there been a single resource readily available with gang profiles, definitions, terminology, photos, videos, scars, marks, tattoos, codes and communications and other signs and symbols.

The Gang Enforcement Company has set out to resolve this issue through our development of Gangipedia™ and our Gangology™ Research Team.  Our research team from throughout the United States are compiling information from a variety of sources and subject matter experts to create as comprehensive as possible global profile of the world's gangs.
