In the next clip of our exclusive interview with San Fernando graffiti legend HERT USC, he offers a rare glimpse into his past, reflecting on his encounters with the infamous Foothill Division, a police unit that gained global notoriety after several of its officers were implicated in the Rodney King beating.

Hert, whose vivid recollections bring to life the tense atmosphere of his youth, describes growing up under the watchful eyes of the Foothill Division.

One poignant memory stands out: the day before the Rodney King verdict, Hert joined forces with legendary graffiti vandal SKATE, a member of the CBS and MTA crews. The two painted the town, unaware of the historic moment that was about to unfold.
