What is the nickname sometimes used to refer to the Mexican Mafia?

The Brothers
The Wicked Ones
The Outlaws
The Guardians

The correct answer is: The Wicked Ones

The nickname that is sometimes used to refer to the Mexican Mafia is "The Wicked Ones." This term reflects the notorious reputation and the violent history associated with this criminal organization, which originated among incarcerated individuals in the California prison system. The Mexican Mafia is known for its control over a variety of illegal enterprises and its involvement in gang activities, often associated with extreme violence and drug trafficking. The name signifies not only the group's actions but also the fear they instill within both criminal and lawful communities. The other options do not resonate with the identity or known lore surrounding the Mexican Mafia, as they are associated with different groups or carry distinct connotations that do not relate to the history or operations of the Mexican Mafia.
