http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compton,_California

Compton is notorious for being the city with the highest violent crime rate in all of California. The Morgan Quitno Corporation designated Compton as the third most dangerous city with a population of 75,000 or above in 2005. Compton also has a homicide rate about eight times higher than the national average, most of which are gang killings. The Crips and the Bloods are the most well-known gangs; disputes between these gangs were recreated in various films and allegedly were central to the death of Tupac Shakur. Many other gangs also exist, which now have both African Americans and Latinos as members. Compton's policing needs are currently served by the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. In the past, the Compton Police Department (CPD) was shut down amidst controversy. Some claim this was because some members of the police force itself were heavily involved in gang activity, while the police themselves charge that this was due to friction between the department and then-Mayor Omar Bradley, who has since faced serious corruption charges. Regardless of the situation, it is clear that government corruption of some form was so severe that it became necessary to have law enforcement overseen from outside the city itself.
Civic corruption has also been a widespread problem in Compton. In 1995, the Mayor and a councilwoman were convicted of extortion. In 2002, his replacement, Bradley, was convicted of using city credit cards to purchase golf balls and lavish hotel stays for himself and his friends. Various mayoral administrations have been investigated by federal, state, and county government for bribery, nepotism, and misappropriating public funds. This contributes to Compton's poor reputation and discourages business investment.
Compton's crime is due mainly to its economic condition and its location as the center of the South Los Angeles "ghettos" and drug trade. The crime has not been as severe as it was in the 1980s and early 1990s, during the crack (cocaine) epidemic. Compton's notoriety as a dangerous city is exaggerated by the rise of the gangsta rap group N.W.A, among others.
In 2005 Compton had at least 68 gun related murders, which is significantly higher rate than the national average for a city its size. Recently in an effort to combat this gun violence the Compton citizens gave the option to hand over their guns to the police, and receive a $100 check for various goods. The police have to this date (25 Dec 2005) received over 200 guns.

holy cow, that's quite extreme. How come this kind of situation could even start developping ? Aren't there any control autorities to check out what does the politicians do in your country ?

That made me thinking about some reportage I saw about Haiti and the situation in "Port au Prince"
