Over 14,000 strong, TDCJ's Tango Blast gang still creating major issues inside the walls.



By Doug Glass, Backgate Website



  Texas prison officials first noted the presence of a gang known as the Four Horseman in 1998. Some Hispanic gang members entering the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) from the cities of Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth and Houston were not interested in joining an established prison gang and established the Four Horseman to protect one another and to engage in illegal activities, particularly drug-trafficking, to make money. The Four Horseman became known as the Tangos, because its members wore tattoos that reflected the town (or tango) in which they resided prior to their incarceration. As interest in the Tangos grew among Hispanic gang members entering the TDCJ from other areas of Texas, only inmates from West Texas, the Rio Grande Valley, San Antonio and El Paso were allowed into the gang.

Of the eight groups now recognized as Tangos, six are part of what is now known as Tango Blast or Puro Tango Blast. Tango Blast includes Tangos from the four original cities as well as the West Texas and Rio Grande Valley areas. Tango Blast differs from the Tangos in that separate Tango Blast members sometimes band together to help one another. The rapid growth of the Tango Blast poses a significant new security threat within the TDCJ and elements of the Tango Blast appear to be challenging the Texas Syndicate for control of illegal prison activities. Upon release from prison, Tango members appear to return to their local street gangs, rather than continue their prison-based gang affiliations.

In 1998, the Tango Blast prison gang is formed in the Clemens state prison in Brazoria, Texas. (Gang Intelligence 101)

In 2001, both the Tango Blast and Barrio Azteca engage in a gang fight in a gymnasium at the Torres state prison in Hondo, Texas. Both gangs settle a truce soon after. (Associated Press)

On January of 2002, members of the Barrio Azteca brutally stab a Tango Blast member while the victim is using the restroom at the Robertson state prison in Abilene, Texas. A gang war between the two gangs erupts state wide soon after. (Associated Press)

On June 2002, the Tango Blast retaliates against the Barrio Azteca by severely beating 4 of its members in the John B. Connally state prison in Kenedy, Texas. (Gang Intelligence 101)

In mid 2002, the Texas Syndicate declares war on the Tango Blast prison gang. (Gang Intelligence 101)

In April 2002, members of the Texas Syndicate murder a Tango Blast member at the J.B. Connally state prison. (Gang Intelligence 101)

On August 7, 2005, Tango Blast member Rolando Vasquez murders Juan Rodriguez, a member of the Varrio Northside street gang in Houston, Texas. (Vasquez v. State, No. 2-06-409-CR (Tex. App. 9/4/2008)

On August 31, 2006, several Tango Blast members are arrested for drug distribution and trafficking in Dallas, Texas. (Aguilar v. State, No. 05-07-00660-CR (Tex. App. 8/18/2008)

In October 2007, Tango Blast member William Linzer kidnaps and rapes a teenage girl in Houston. (Associated Press)

On May 2007, Tango Blast member Jesus Elizondo, 22, shoots and kills a 15-year-old boy in Dallas. (Associated Press)

In June 2008, The Tango Blast prison gang attack Texas Chicano Brotherhood members in the J.B. Connally state prison. (Gang Intelligence 101)

On November 16, 2008, Tango Blast members murder Alejandro Vasquez in a nightclub in downtown Dallas. (Associated Press)

On December 2008, ten members of the West Texas Tango gang are arrested in a major cocaine and meth trafficking ring. (U.S. Department of Justice Press Release)

In 2009, four members of the Tango Blast gang are arrested by FBI officials in Houston for possession of more than five kilos of cocaine. Agents seized fire arms, high end cars and jewelry. (Associated Press)

With law enforcement all over Texas comparing notes on the group, hundreds of arrests are being made from everything from armed robbery, to murder by Tango members. The group lures in new members by offering protection and unity. Although members claim not to follow the same principles of other prison gangs, they sometimes do. They routinely "cora check" or "beat in" potential gang members, and many face the same repercussions if they leave the group. They originated in the late 1990's as a group to protect themselves against other gangs, but have evolved into a prison based criminal enterprise. Trafficking drugs, tobacco, cell phones and extortion have elevated the Tangos past the level of most established Texas prison gangs.

Tango members are violent towards other offenders and staff members alike, being responsible for the majority of offender and staff assaults on many prison units. The group has grown significantly over the last couple of years and there true numbers within the Texas prison system can really only be estimated based on self admission by the offender, or through security threat group investigation.No matter what their official numbers, they will surely be a thorn in the side of the TDCJ for years to come.

  1. The "Mexican Problem" in our prisons is just a reflection of what's happening in society in general. Until we get serious about deportation and illegal immigration prevention, this will continue to worsen. Our state is being overrun by the refugees of a failed state. They can't or won't fix it and they've come here to destroy us too.

    1. Tango Blast are hispanic offenders born in the united states not mexican born. They are not an outside problem but rather a home grown threat. In fact some are not hispancs at all but Anglos who have lived in hispanic areas who identify more with the hispance culture then the anglo culture.

    2. You're an absolute liar... Most of the TANGOs at my unit are, in fact, foreign born. Stop playing apologist for the illegals.

    3. You all better wake up to the fact that a bunch of American born mexicans are turning into gang members, and a s#%t load of them are serving approx. 4 years in our military to learn how to be organized and many other reasons. Looks like a whole lot of you talk smack becasue you can remain anonymous. Everyone of you need to stick together and man up. Help fight this problem. Jay Jefferson, Dallas, Texas

    4. I know one way to fix this problem, start placing a 97% tax on Western Union transactions to Mexico. Start treating them here, the way we'd be treated in Mexico. That means, oh you don't have a drivers license, we're going to toss you in a nasty jail and extort your family for thousands. I don't know about where you live, but in Dallas, everytime someone brings up Illegal Mexicans, all these stupid white people have to say: "Oh they're so honest and hard working" and "They come here seeking a better way of life". They need to seek it in Mexico. If they want a better life here, they need to start paying their honest share of income tax. The only tax they pay now is whatever sales tax they pay when they buy what ever they buy. Gang activity should carry an automatic death sentance. If you got the tat's, you dies like the rats!! Look at the crime stats of all small towns before the ILLEGAL INVASION, VS What the stats are after their arrival. Pretty sad. Where I work, they commit some of the most brutal crimes agiants others you'd ever want to see. Wake up everyone, they way to get awareness is to talk to people about this problem. Instead of sitting at the bar talking about sports with the guy next to you, bring up all of the issues with this ILLEGAL INVASION. Also folks, especially you White Peoples. They are out producing you where birth rates are concened. You may not see this as a problem now, but when you are out-numbered in 21 years, you'll remember back when you should have been more active in stopping this ILLEGAL INVASION. Trust me, the white man has given the mexicans and all other minorities their fare shake, but when you need them in 21 years for you or your childrens fair shake, good luck whitey!! Don't take this as a racist rant, take this as a reality rant. A reality you are not going to like in approx. 21 years

    5. everybody talks about how things should be and how they think they can make a difference..But in reality I bet NOT one of you have made an effort to make a difference but write senseless bullshit on sites like this one..God forbid that you step foot in one of those cells,because thats when you will wish one of those Tango"s would stick up for your man hood..Yeah the problem is in society..I lived 21 years in Dallas..and all the crime is a product of its own environment..Police out there like gang unit are some dirty basturds..White folks wanna downgrade a mexican,by calling him illegal and invading spaces..Who gave you the right to run off Families that were established way before your time..This is the best that could of happened in TDCJ..Tango"s..at least they don"t Rape or Demand to kill.

    11. My name"s Victoriano Vasquez (El Guero), this is an out dated comment but should get a little more attention; There is no Mexican Problem, the problem lies in communications. There has always been a communication Wall that has kept us all fromm moving past ignorance, (the lack of knowledge). It has crippled this State and economy for over a hundred years. Give a little attention to true fact and not "mosca" generated truth, (like an annoying fly in one's ear) anyone could see integral hard working and even strict, when it comes to following the rules trustworthy awsome people. It can not be denied. Seek out the truth, learn spanish, which is Texas' other native language. God bless, Felize ACora..........

  5. Even if the U.S. did get serious about immigration, it would do little to solve this tango gang problem. The vast majority of its members are, in fact, american-born. In the prison system of Texas, most foreign born hispanics sway towards other gangs formed particularly for the influx of criminal immigrants who have huge cultural issues with hispanics born here, like differences in spanish, sports and music preferences... just to name a few.
    You will encounter a few foreign born tango members, but not much.
    Also, there is not a single stronghold of the gang in central or southern latin countries.
    Those comments in response the 2nd from top is an absolute proclamation for the distaste of hispanics, period.
    Just to dumb it down to the level of ignorance posted by the folks calling the guy an absolute liar, mentioning 'wetback', and playing
    apologist, your clearly angry at mexicans in general probably because they had you like b!#%*es in the unit you were in...Don't lie now!
    Furthermore, your perception of that race is distorted being that you developed your hatred for them in such a despicable environment as prisin, that you fail to realize the majority if immigrants actual create great economic impact for this country, because of their very respectable outlook of a decent living.
    You guys could care less about illegal immigration... and typical to address this issue in such a sloppy, non-progressive fashion.

    1. Ptb was created to keep people from being taking advantage of. Because believe it or not before the blast, illegals and american born mexicans were being (for a lack of a better word) bullied by prison gangs because they were alone fighting against 10-15 people. So when we came along we made sure you can come to prison, be safe, do ur time, and get back to ur family. That's what the blast is about. Anyone who does anything different than that, is not Real blast. I can't let A few fake people claiming to be a part of ptb, tarnish what we really are. Oh and btw. The guy who raped someone in houstone, WAS NOT BLASTIN! we don't pick up trash, especially rapists.

  11. The Blast is simply poorly represented by young members who DO NOT follow the original intent of the organization or who are simply misinformed. The Blast was always meant to be a PRISON gang. Not a street gang. Lots of young kids claim to be Tango Blast without even being in prison or knowing what PTB is truly about. 214 baby

So if people want to talk bad about me or my fellow brothers/sister's, then we will have a problem on our hand! We are not all ruthless and bad like what some fellow members do in the day to day basis. Some of us believe in keeping the peace. but make no mistake about it we don't play games.

  27. I did 15 years in tdc, it seems the facts are really very off here, I mean yes tango stuck together against prison families so the numbers of them wouldn't intimidate or hog homies from the cities and west tx, now tango members are not from mexico, mostly Chicano (Mexican Americans), safe prison act was a way to confirm and get prison families out of population,23hr lock downs all over the state of tx, since tango was not a actual prison gang i they remained in general population and used their numbers to take over control of drugs, phones, anything else inside prison walls because the government knew they'd never be able to empliment safe prison act with all the prison families to kill and evoke fear, see them snitches knew they would be killed, well now its a free for all I-60s are now prisoners way of telling everything they see, so tango blasters yes they will do some crazy shit from time to time, but they've never been known ass killers, they fight and will use shanks against other prison families, but people if you check tdcj now a days the families are rotting away in ad-seg, from the writings ive read here alot of y'all dont have a clue, tango blasters picked up the torch the families had in place, with most of their numbers out the way tango became simular to what they despised, although they work off of majority vote, when they get out no strings attached

I rep my city and stay stiff on these vatos. I don't follow nobodys rules but my own. hold it down raza.

  32. Tango blast started out to keep people from joining famas and now it has turned into to what it hates. The old school tango from the 90s know what it is all about but these kids now days are just trying to claim the fame. As for me i found God and nothing can compare, life is good and my prayers are that the homies will see the light. God dont see blast or fama black or white He looks at the heart. Our real families need us to lead in the right direction. Much love and God bless

  40. Tango blast is about to be put into segregation because they have became exactly what the famas used to be. They used to protect their own and now they extort, rape, and beat their own kind. They are such a nuisance in TDCJ that the STG department is considering releasing the low-risk families and opening a seg unit just for the tango blast.

  41. I'm blasting. Been blasting for 17 years now. Got released yesterday from a 19 year sentence. I've read all these lame comments. I'm just going to say, I spoke for the blast a lot and different units. I've seen a lot of homeboys trying and make the blast a blood in blood out thing. Ts and other famas in the rancho technically ain't about shit. Numbers online about us are off. As of 2019 we are over 21000 strong. No fama has no numbers as us. I wish someone out the blast will tell me their blasting and never been down so I can stop that vatos heartbeat. We killed and bled for this stampa. I take this shit serious. I'm USDA TANGO BLAST. Those of y'all who comment talking shit about the blast, y'all funny homos. Y'all online thugs, I'll be glad to give y'all my address and we can catch that paper. PURO TANGO BLAST. TANGO PASSION FOREVER BLASTING

  44. Been blastin since 19, got a 5 year sentence at 18 year old cuz I messed up a white mf. Only 24, but these other youngins be making Tango Blast look bad. The blasters took care of me while in the Lynaugh and Dominguez unit. We most definitely don't pick up rapists, fuck all you rapists and sex offenders. We most definitely own Texas. So don't say shit about us cuz you butthurt. Puro pinche 956 alv, Valluco 4 life
