Status and record

The structured life-status field is living. This administrative value should change only when a reliable current source supports an update. The current-status field is serving time.

Source record

The Master package currently attaches these sources to the profile: – Four Pomona Gang Members and Mexican Mafia Associates Sentenced to Life in Federal Prison for Murder, Racketeering — U.S. Attorney’s Office, Central District of California, Tier 1.

Claim-level source references remain in the structured data so later audits can trace evidence rather than relying on a generic bibliography.

Evidence and editorial boundaries

For living subjects especially, legal status and allegations require dated evidence. Future expansion should come from stronger records, court material, archives or newly processed canonical entities rather than generalized crime lore.

How this profile fits the archive

The source package currently includes Four Pomona Gang Members and Mexican Mafia Associates Sentenced to Life in Federal Prison for Murder, Racketeering. Those records define the safe editorial boundary for this version of the page. Unknown dates and unresolved associations remain explicit because a missing fact is a research task, not permission to speculate.

Research state

This depth pass expands the page from structured evidence already present in the Master. The next meaningful improvement should be a stronger primary source, a dated event, a verified legal-status change, a prison record, or a newly processed Book, Screen or Organization entity that creates a legitimate reverse link.

Media remains a separate completion gate. A portrait should be attached only after source page, provenance and reuse status are checked. Until then, text can be complete while media remains pending.

Archive discipline

A stable canonical Person page remains useful even when some biography is unresolved. It prevents duplicate identities and gives future cases, organizations, events, books and screen works one consistent target. Depth should come from verified edges and source-backed chronology, not filler.

Future audit trigger

Return this profile to research when a new source materially changes chronology, status or network position. Add the structured fact first and update prose second so the article and knowledge graph stay synchronized. Portrait completion remains separately gated.

Editorial boundary

This depth pass stays inside the evidence already attached to the canonical entity. It does not import conduct from an organization page merely because the person is linked to that organization, and it does not promote a contextual or editorial connection into a stronger criminal-association claim.

This matters most for living subjects, where an outdated or weakly sourced status can be more misleading than leaving the field open. The structured record remains the source of truth and the prose follows it.
