| On March 26th 2012, the Notorious Darren Banks, said to be the leader of the PIV gang back then, was sentenced to 3 years imprisonment for 26 and a half pounds of marijuana which was found on top of the roof of his Oleander Street home. At the time of the search at Bank's home, police say they found an AR-15 rifle, twenty nine 5.56 live rounds of ammunition, and thirteen .223 live rounds of ammunition. Banks was charged with kept prohibited firearm, kept prohibited ammunition and drug trafficking. It's been over 3 years now since Darren Banks has been locked up and things have only gotten worse for him and his family. Banks was diagnosed with Schizophrenia - a long-term mental health condition that causes a range of different psychological symptoms. According to his family, his rights are being violated at the prison due to his mental condition.
According to CEO of the prison Virgilio Murillo, Banks was not denied a family day. He told us that Darren Banks did not write down his name on the list of those who wanted to spend the day with their family. Tonight Darren Banks's mother says she has bigger problems: she can't afford to put his son through school.
IN 2008 Banks went to court and panicked; he told the judge he saw snakes slithering on the courtroom floor.
