Femanin recently made its list of the most dangerous gangs in each state. Here's what it had to say about Iowa:

C Block is a street gang operating mainly in the city of Des Moines in Iowa, well-known for its long history of drug dealing and violent crimes. C Block has been so dangerous that the FBI spent months investigating them before recent convictions, particularly of cocaine dealing. C Block is also known to be connected to another dangerous gang, the Crips.
