Thirds

The standard Mexican Mafia tax on illicit proceeds in prison or on the street.

Ex. 1

Prosecutor: Are you familiar with the concept of thirds?

Boxer: Yes, thirds.

Prosecutor: What's that?

Boxer: Thirds is the standard tax on anybody, particularly for individuals coming into a prison setting. Anybody coming in with drugs or any illegal material, any contraband, they're required to give us a third, the Mexican Mafia members a third.

Ex. 2

Boxer: I got an assignment for you. There's a trap house in Boyle Heights run by a dude named Nico. He's bragging about being tax free. It's on Matthews across the street from the high school--

Savage: --Isn't that the school where Jaimie Escalante taught calculus to all them cholos and jainas?

Boxer: Uh huh. And like Mr. Escalante, you're gonna teach Nico some math. Specifically, how the concept of thirds works. Make sure he knows that La Cliqua sends its regards.
