Lilly was an associate of shady individuals that caused her to get involved in crime jobs. Usually how this would work was two or three cars would drive to a job. Lilly was let out two or three blocks from the victim spot. She walked to the hit place. She went in alone first and created a diversionary attractive distraction that got most of the people’s attention there. Then the gang would show up with guns pulled, masks and hold up the place. Tisha was not seen by the victims as a gang member. She might scream, yell, and cry. The crooks got in the cars with the loot and left. Tisha walked outside, walked three or four blocks and met the crooks, got in a car, and left safely. She has a .32 pistol on herself if it was needed. It was silvered with a pearl handle. The hold ups were small branch banks or small businesses like garages, florists, barber shops, laundries, or grocery stores. She was many times involved as an accessory to crimes. Her life was entangled with dangerous criminals. To gain by crime was to court death, yours and that of others.
Tisha worked at the White Swan nightclub. Bud Hobson of the Satan’s Skulls gang owned it. So Tisha knew Bud Hobson. Knowing him, she also knew the whole gang and the extras that joined and left it. She was well known by the entire Charlotte criminal underworld society. They looked up to, respected, and adored her.
