She is the sister of Manboy and the wife of Skully. She and her daughter, Tianna, are the only thing keeping the Compton Crips and Inglewood Bloods from obliterating each other. During a drive by attack between the Family and the Bloods, Kirby and 2 other Blood members were killed and 2 of Franklin's boys, including C.J. were killed. Leon, assuming he saw Skully alive, fired in the car. Instead, he wound up killing Khadijah's child in a hit that was meant for Skully. She was hell bent on revenge and became impatient with her brother and husband. She took matters into her own hands when she enlisted Eureka in bailing out Fatback who agreed to take a fall for Tianna's death. Khadijah kidnapped him and demanded answers on Leon's whereabouts, but when he refused to provide an answer, she stabbed him to death and dumped his body in the Projects. She resulted in placing a $5,000 bounty on Leon's head and even recruited Black Diamond and Dallas in a drive by at Fatback's funeral in a plot to off Leon. The drive-by failed and resulted in some people getting shot, especially Franklin's Auntie Louie. Franklin was able to turn Khadijah's bounty hunters and later set her up, resulting in Jerome killing her.

### Legacy

All Khadijah ever cared about in the world was her 5 year old daughter, Tianna, but after her daughter was killed in a drive-by battle between the Family and the Bloods, Khadijah became unhinged, reckless, impatient with with her brother and husband, and thirsty for blood. Her view of the world around her became red as she continued her never ending pursuit to kill the man that took her daughters life, Leon Simmons, and put her trust in 2 bounty hunters, but in the end, the bounty hunters she trusted to carry out the job revealed they're only loyal to the highest bidder, being Franklin Saint, and walked into a trap to her demise.

He is first seen going to Lenny’s house with Franklin Saint and Leon Simmons to recover the money Lenny and Ray-Ray stole from Franklin, during which he tortures, beats and eventually rapes Lenny until he gets answers about where the cash is, before taking Franklin’s cash for himself along with a box of cereal. Franklin and Leon later hunt Karvel down to his home, to learn that he used almost all of Avi's money to pimp out his ride and they find him black-out drunk.

Franklin and Leon kidnapped Karvel and took him to the Sonoran Desert (under Avi’s advice). Karvel almost escapes the car and is shot in the lower abdomen. He falls from a height and runs off. Karvel is tracked down by the pair, who follow a trail of his blood. Bleeding out, Karvel makes a vain attempt to beg for his life; Leon then shoots Karvel in the chest and subsequently the head, after Franklin failed to do so himself.

In the episode 'Other Lives', in an alternate timeline, he robs a gas station Franklins working at and begins losing his cool with Frank. As he finishes taking the money, he demands Franklin at gunpoint to repeat something demeaning only to be gunned down and killed by Sergeant Andre Wright.

### Legacy

When it comes to gangbangers, Karvel was as sick, sadistic, violent, and volatile as they come.

Learning they were cut off due to her finding a new supplier, they jumped Franklin Saint outside Claudia nightclub and stole his cash and motorcycle, accusing him of stealing their customer. He was later tracked down to his home where Franklin and Leon enlisted Karvel, a ruthless and twisted gang member, in interrogating Lenny about the cash he and Ray Ray stole. Lenny endured harsh torture and even rape from Karvel until he gave up the money location, no surprise that he robbed Franklin as well. It was later revealed that he killed Karvel's boys at his spot. Determined for payback, Lenny plotted to kill Franklin Saint and instead managed to ambush and shoot Leon Simmons outside Franklin's house, but failed to kill him. At the end of Season 1, Lenny was captured by Ray-Ray who struck a deal with Franklin, bound and dragged out to the middle of nowhere, and was killed by Ray-Ray who was given an ultimatum to kill or die.
