"content": "\u003cp>Convicted San Francisco Chinatown crime boss Raymond \"Shrimp Boy\" Chow was sentenced to two concurrent life sentences in prison Thursday, marking a major milestone in a sprawling, decade-long federal investigation that probed some of the darker aspects of the city's political landscape and led a former \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/02/24/leland-yee-sentenced-to-5-years-in-prison-on-corruption-arms-charges/\" target=\"_blank\">state senator to a five-year prison sentence\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chow was the principal defendant in a complex racketeering case that indicted 28 others, all alleged to have some connection to a criminal enterprise he was convicted of operating as dragonhead of San Francisco's branch of the Chee Kung Tong, a Chinese fraternal organization. Chow was \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/01/08/raymond-shrimp-boy-chow-guilty-on-all-162-counts-in-racketeering-murder-trial/\" target=\"_blank\">convicted in January\u003c/a> of all 162 counts for which he was charged, including murder, conspiracy to commit murder, money laundering and running a racketeering organization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The case was revealed to the public when FBI agents conducted a series of simultaneous raids, searches and \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/03/26/u/Leland-Yee-Firearms-Trafficking-FBI/\" target=\"_blank\">arrests on March 26, 2014\u003c/a>, and former state senator and San Francisco politician Leland Yee was among those arrested.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government's lead prosecutor said in court Thursday that Chow is a \"highly manipulative, constant, perpetual liar\" who made a \"mockery of those who have effectively rehabilitated\" by presenting a facade of a reformed criminal while orchestrating the murders of his rivals and building an organized racketeering organization in San Francisco's Chinatown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The defendant lied repeatedly while he was on the witness stand,\" Assistant U.S. Attorney William Frentzen said in court. \"This is a case that involved a murder, the ordering of a murder, an infamous murder, a murder that was committed so that Mr. Chow himself could move ahead and advance and take over ... corrupting a long-standing community organization.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chow was convicted of ordering the \u003ca href=\"http://www.sfgate.com/news/article/A-KILLING-IN-CHINATOWN-Allen-Leung-a-power-in-2500019.php\" target=\"_blank\">2006 murder of Allen Leung\u003c/a> to make way for his ascension to head of the Chee Kung Tong. In exchange for leniency, several of Chow's former associates \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/11/12/shrimp-boy-defense-tries-to-discredit-testimony-linking-chow-to-murders/\" target=\"_blank\">testified\u003c/a> against him and said Chow ordered the murder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an \u003ca href=\"http://ww1.hdnux.com/photos/12/13/33/2668260/4/920x1240.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">iconic photo\u003c/a> displayed during the trial, Chow was captured amid a flock of newspapers held by supporters to obscure him as he left Leung's funeral wearing a white suit. The prosecution alleged Chow's wardrobe choice was a symbol of disrespect and a sign of his power grab to assume the head of organized crime in Chinatown, a claim Chow disputes. The photo launched the FBI's \"Operation White Suit.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chow was also convicted of conspiring to murder Jim Tat Kong, who was shot to death with his wife in Fort Bragg in 2013.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Jim Tat Kong eventually was murdered, although not necessarily as a result of Mr. Chow’s conspiracy to have him taken out,\" Frentzen said. A former associate of Chow's testified that he was brought in to kill Kong, but Chow later abandoned those plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the past two years, the public got to know Chow's broad, smiling face as he sat silently through most days of court hearings and a highly publicized jury trial.

Chow was \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2016/01/08/raymond-shrimp-boy-chow-guilty-on-all-162-counts-in-racketeering-murder-trial/\" target=\"_blank\">convicted in January\u003c/a> of all 162 counts for which he was charged, including murder, conspiracy to commit murder, money laundering and running a racketeering organization.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The case was revealed to the public when FBI agents conducted a series of simultaneous raids, searches and \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2014/03/26/u/Leland-Yee-Firearms-Trafficking-FBI/\" target=\"_blank\">arrests on March 26, 2014\u003c/a>, and former state senator and San Francisco politician Leland Yee was among those arrested.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The government's lead prosecutor said in court Thursday that Chow is a \"highly manipulative, constant, perpetual liar\" who made a \"mockery of those who have effectively rehabilitated\" by presenting a facade of a reformed criminal while orchestrating the murders of his rivals and building an organized racketeering organization in San Francisco's Chinatown.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"The defendant lied repeatedly while he was on the witness stand,\" Assistant U.S. Attorney William Frentzen said in court. \"This is a case that involved a murder, the ordering of a murder, an infamous murder, a murder that was committed so that Mr. Chow himself could move ahead and advance and take over ... corrupting a long-standing community organization.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

In exchange for leniency, several of Chow's former associates \u003ca href=\"http://ww2.kqed.org/news/2015/11/12/shrimp-boy-defense-tries-to-discredit-testimony-linking-chow-to-murders/\" target=\"_blank\">testified\u003c/a> against him and said Chow ordered the murder.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an \u003ca href=\"http://ww1.hdnux.com/photos/12/13/33/2668260/4/920x1240.jpg\" target=\"_blank\">iconic photo\u003c/a> displayed during the trial, Chow was captured amid a flock of newspapers held by supporters to obscure him as he left Leung's funeral wearing a white suit. The prosecution alleged Chow's wardrobe choice was a symbol of disrespect and a sign of his power grab to assume the head of organized crime in Chinatown, a claim Chow disputes. The photo launched the FBI's \"Operation White Suit.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chow was also convicted of conspiring to murder Jim Tat Kong, who was shot to death with his wife in Fort Bragg in 2013.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Jim Tat Kong eventually was murdered, although not necessarily as a result of Mr. Chow’s conspiracy to have him taken out,\" Frentzen said. A former associate of Chow's testified that he was brought in to kill Kong, but Chow later abandoned those plans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Over the past two years, the public got to know Chow's broad, smiling face as he sat silently through most days of court hearings and a highly publicized jury trial.

The county is field testing the programs at these sites, with an eye toward a new juvenile facility that will open in the spring. Campus Kilpatrick will have a \"trauma-informed\" approach, focusing less on discipline and more on rehabilitation. It will not have a SHU at all. And the L.A. County Arts Commission is working with probation to embed arts at the core of the curriculum as part of the rehabilitation process.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I’ve seen over the years the ebb and flow of different theories of how to handle kids who are detained,\" said Sherry Gold, justice deputy for Los Angeles County Supervisor Sheila Kuehl, who co-authored \u003ca href=\"http://supervisorkuehl.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/05/5.3.16-Solitary-Confinement-Motion-REVISED.pdf\">the motion restricting the use of solitary\u003c/a>. \"It’s my opinion that it’s about time that we’re recognizing that arts are a very important part of a program.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>At Camp Scott, the mural project is starting to change the atmosphere on the campus. One girl said that the painting is relaxing and helps her blow off steam. Another said that having the mural in the SHU makes the space feel more peaceful and less like a prison.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Since participation was required at the facility, artists Galarza and Nery Gabriel Lemus said that not all of the girls were thrilled to be there. Some started to look forward to it over time, and picked up skills to improve their painting and drawing technique. But even for those who never got into it, there were valuable lessons.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Everything is interconnected,\" said Lemus. \"Sometimes it’s not just about art per se. Sometimes it’s just about being able to focus on something and get your mind off of the negativity.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Anaceli is set to go home in June and she says while she’s painting, she dreams of turning her life around once she’s out.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Engaging yourself in it makes you think a lot of positive things like, do I want to continue my life like the way I was living? Or do I want to become clean and live my life like a normal person?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The girls completed the mural in early June and theater workshops are set to start there later this summer.\u003c/p>\n\n",

"info": "The MindShift podcast explores the innovations in education that are shaping how kids learn. Hosts Ki Sung and Katrina Schwartz introduce listeners to educators, researchers, parents and students who are developing effective ways to improve how kids learn. We cover topics like how fed-up administrators are developing surprising tactics to deal with classroom disruptions; how listening to podcasts are helping kids develop reading skills; the consequences of overparenting; and why interdisciplinary learning can engage students on all ends of the traditional achievement spectrum. This podcast is part of the MindShift education site, a division of KQED News. KQED is an NPR/PBS member station based in San Francisco.
