'The Family with Secrets...'
How did we get here...
In 1996 when our Original Family leader was caught in a crossfire between two rival gangs in the streets of Los Angeles, all our members turned to me, The Underboss, The Segundo. Of course, there were a few exceptions, these were dealt with in a way we deemed necessary. We at this point were in the drugs trade, it was a good business back then, practically an endless line of customers coming to buy weed for example. Another Well remembered piece of our history was in 1997, the loss of one of our great 'negotiators', Samuel Deleon. He was meeting a well respected underboss in one of our cities Mafias, to negotiate the release of our newest member, unfortunately, Samuel Sacrificed himself to save this member, and for reasons unbeknown to us, he killed himself the next day.
In 2002 we finally decided to transfer out of Los Angeles, new Families were coming in, and we decided we would be more successful moving to another city. For near enough 8 years we have moved from city to city trying to get our names known, and this city, we believe, holds great promise for us, it holds riches, and challenges, potential for new allies, and new enemies, a new start, a stepping stone to the Rise of the Deleon Family.

Joe Deleon's Story
I was born in August quite a warm month. I was found on the doorstep of an orphanage, not an unusual occurence for children back then, being abandoned for various reason, perhaps my parents couldn't afford me, or maybe family differences. I choose not to dwell on this though, and so I continue with my life. My life is pretty unremarkable to start with. I attend Pre-school, just like everyone else, I carry on through the years, I reach 15, and I am walking from school, where I see a whole gang of people, a mismatch, and it gets me thinking about gang life in general, how scruffy many of them are, so I decide to join, not just any group, but a Mafia, I am quickly established in this, I move on, many relatives of mine I knew were involved in 'Unclean' Deals, so naturally, I go to them next, and thus, The Deleon Crime Family was born. A group of people, with the same aims, to gain respect, to gain wealth, to gain freedom from the mistakes others have made, moving onto bigger things.
Where are we based...

What Weapons do we use?...
(http://media.gtanet.com/gtasa/images/baticon.gif)
The baseball bat, Can be very good for RPing, especially if there is a big mob. Popular melee weapon amongst families like ours, it is a realistic object for you to be carrying
(http://media.gtanet.com/gtasa/images/knifecuricon.gif)
The knife, you will probably never leave the house without it in a crime family, small and discreet, so can be well hidden, but deadly when used correctly
(http://media.gtanet.com/gtasa/images/desert_eagleicon.gif)
The Desert Eagle, very powerful pistol, can kill in two shots (I believe), again, a very common weapon for us to be carrying
(http://media.gtanet.com/gtasa/images/mp5lngicon.gif)
The SMG (MP5), generally used in small shootouts between us and our rival gangs, some people prefer to carry them around as security, but if there are two or three of you going around together, make sure at least one person has got this, it will save your lives, trust me
(http://media.gtanet.com/gtasa/images/ak47icon.gif)
The AK47, deadly, fast firing, powerful weapon, only to be found on your person when you are anticipating a big gang shootout, not to be used when just walking about, it is too big to be hidden effectively
(http://media.gtanet.com/gtasa/images/chromegunicon.gif)
The shotgun, a very powerful weapon at close range, very unaccurate at a distance, my advice, only to be used in dire need if your enemy looks more skilled and stronger than you, and is heading towards you with a knife, shoot them with this, you will definitely save yourself
(http://media.gtanet.com/gtasa/images/shotgspaicon.gif)
Many peoples personal favourite, the combat shotgun, will fire off rounds at the same rate as a 9mm, but is more accurate and powerful than a shotgun, situation is the same as the ak47, only use when anticipating a gang war.

Dear whoever it concerns
My name is Joe Deleon, and I am in charge of the Deleon Crime Family, we are new here, but we have many connections around the globe, if you want any help, contact me and I will se what I can do.
We are looking for allies to help us in this 'strange new world', and maybe, together we can become great. We are looking for many new members to build up peoples knowledge about us, and in the future, we could become serious business allies. If you have a problem with this Family, or you wish to praise us at all, you can call me on 6642 and I will answer the phone if I am available. We were based at Palomino Creek, close to the Headquarters of the Relentless Renegades, and this is how we became allies, we realised that by working together, we could help and benefit each other. We are now based at the East Side of Los Santos, and will hopefully be accepted into the community by the people.
I know you may be thinking, we have many crime Families here, what good is another one. Well I sincerely tell you this now, we will do our best to help you people, and not just cause destruction, we will try to help boost the trade here, instead of watching it crumble. It is time to be different, time to create, time to invent, not a time to destroy, nor to merely watch life collapse.
Joe Deleon - Head of the Deleon Crime Family
