Federal Agents Arrest Karen Bass-Linked “Peace Ambassador” — Convicted Murderer and Active 18th Street Gang Member Was Being Paid with Taxpayer Dollars Through NGO Program
Federal law enforcement just exposed another jaw-dropping failure of Los Angeles’ radical “reimagine public safety” experiment under Mayor Karen Bass.
A convicted murderer, whom law enforcement believes is an active member of the 18th Street gang while being paid with City of Los Angeles funds to work as a “Peace Ambassador,” was arrested Friday and charged in a federal criminal complaint him with illegally possessing two body armor plates near the city’s drug-and-crime-infested MacArthur Park.
Michael Angel Alvarez, 41, a.k.a. “Diablo,” of Westlake, was charged with possession of body armor by a violent felon. According to an affidavit filed with the complaint, Alvarez is a convicted gang murderer who represents himself as working for Healing Urban Barrios, a Lincoln Heights-based organization that contracted with the city for its Peace Ambassador program that is run in the city’s Council District 1, which includes MacArthur Park. He has represented himself as a member of that organization through clothing he wears.

Federal agents arrested Michael Angel Alvarez AKA “Diablo”
The 41-year-old was on the city payroll via a $450,000 contract awarded to Healing Urban Barrios, a Lincoln Heights-based nonprofit running the Peace Ambassador program in Council District 1.
That district, which includes MacArthur Park, falls under City Councilmember Eunisses Hernandez, but Alvarez explicitly told LAPD officers during his detention that he worked for “CRT” – Mayor Karen Bass’s Crisis Response Team.
He even carried a business card identifying himself as a “CDI Peace Ambassador” and wore clothing advertising the organization.
He was caught with military-grade body armor plates near the drug and crime plagued MacArthur Park neighborhood while taxpayers funded his so-called violence-prevention work through an NGO.
According to the DOJ, Alvarez has a criminal history
🔺️2002 First-degree m*rder conviction as part of gang activity; sentenced to 50 years to life. Released on parole after serving 24 years.
🔺️April 2025 Convicted as a prisoner in possession of a weapon - yet kept his city-funded job.
🔺️Federal prosecutors say jailhouse phone calls show he talked about assaulting people for breaking 18th Street rules and relayed the details of a January 2026, double shooting in Westlake tied to the gang.
🔺️He remains an active member
🔺️LAPD officers detained him in May near MacArthur Park during a stolen-vehicle call.
🔺️A search of his car turned up two high-protection body armor plates marketed to stop rifle rounds.
He admitted gang membership during questioning and complained about being stabbed on the job because of it
He said he reported to Councilmember Hernandez, but she denied aid so the program’s backers on the City Council wouldn’t find out.
Healing Urban Barrios paid Alvarez $58,156 in 2025 for “lived experience” work allegedly aimed at stopping violence before it starts.

🚨 Please watch: While casually walking in NYC, a man goes unhinged by my presence. He yells and screams that I am “Islamophobic and racist” but can’t give one example.
Shouts “someone is going to find you” while signaling a gunshot to the head.
“I want you to go into any leftist organization and show them my photo and they will know who I am” he yells when I ask him how he has helped society.
Uncovering fraud and helping America has become the most dangerous job in America, unfortunately.
🚨BREAKING: Steve Hilton, who was placed in first place after election day for Governor of California, is now projected to fall into third place and be ELIMINATED!
This is voter fraud! We are witnessing 2020 all over again!

How is this not a threat of violence? Why are the police doing nothing?
🚨 President Trump is CALLING OUT California's RIGGED election system against Spencer Pratt and Steve Hilton
"It's FOUR DAYS and they STILL aren't even CLOSE to telling you who won. You know why?
Because they're RIGGING the election, that's why. Four days!"
"It's a crooked state. We have crooked THIRD WORLD elections in a lot of our states and we should pass our SAVE AMERICA ACT!"
How are Democrats cheating in L.A.?
Let me show you…
There are 26 registered voters at this toilet in Los Angeles.
I’m not kidding. I have the voter records. See for yourself. The only thing here is a stinky port-a john inside an empty parking lot.
No homes. No mailboxes. No businesses. Yet TWENTY SIX ‘people’ are casting ballots here.
Straight-up voter fraud out in the open. This just a glimpse of what’s happening under Gavin Newsom.
This is why California desperately needs Voter ID — and we must pass the Save Act NOW.
