Sweet and CJ joined the [[Grove Street Families]] gang as kids, and Sweet became the leader of the gang. The Grove Street Families gained power in Los Santos, although their enemies, the [[Ballas]] and [[Los Santos Vagos]] continued to cause damage to them. | ||
In 1987, CJ's brother Brian died (the cause of the death was never revealed), and CJ was forced to leave his hometown Los Santos and move to [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]], where he started working as a car thief for [[Joey Leone]]. At this time, the Grove Street Families began losing power, eventually losing turf to Ballas and the Los Santos Vagos, and they split up to three sets, the original Grove Street Families (ruling Ganton), the Seville Boulevard Families (having control of [[Playa del Seville]]) and the Temple Drive Families (mainly establishing themselves in [[Temple]] and [[Santa Maria Beach]]). All the other territories were being controlled by Ballas and Vagos, who were interested in drug trade, instead of the GSF (who never sold drugs due to Sweet's ban on narcotics). | In 1987, CJ's brother Brian died (the cause of the death was never revealed), and CJ was forced to leave his hometown Los Santos and move to [[Liberty City in GTA III Era|Liberty City]], where he started working as a car thief for [[Joey Leone]].

They decided to do a [[drive-by shooting]] on the Johnson House, and they used a green [[Sabre]] car for the getaway. However, Sweet survived, with Sweet and CJ's [[Beverly Johnson|mother]] caught in the cross fire. This forced CJ to return from Liberty City to Los Santos for the funeral. | ||
When CJ arrives at the airport, a taxi transports him back to his old hood, although, one block away from Grove Street, a police car arrives and arrests Carl. The three cops that took CJ were officers [[Frank Tenpenny]], [[Eddie Pulaski]] and [[Jimmy Hernandez]] of the [[C.R.A.S.H.]] police unit, a corrupt team of cops. They blame CJ for the death of Officer Pendelbury, who they killed instead, and take most of Carl's money, leaving him to Ballas territory. Carl finds the way to his old hood, where he enters his mom's house, and meets [[Big Smoke]], one of the leading members of the gang and Sweet's friend. They head to the funeral, where they meet the rest of the gang, Sweet, Ryder and Kendl. Sweet don't seems to be happy with his brother's arrival, because he thinks CJ "ran away". After the funeral, they are planning to enter Big Smoke's car, although the Ballas blow it up with a drive-by. The gang then leaves with bikes, with the Ballas car chasing CJ. When they arrive at Grove Street, Carl decides to stay in Los Santos, seeing things are "fucked up". | When CJ arrives at the airport, a taxi transports him back to his old hood, although, one block away from Grove Street, a police car arrives and arrests Carl.

Wu Zi, now with a casino in [[Las Venturas]], tells CJ to come and visit him. As CJ arrives there, Woozie informs him of a big plan: robbing the rival [[Caligula's Casino]] which is ran by the Italian Mob. Carl firstly gains the trust of the mob boss [[Salvatore Leone]] by carrying hits on rival mob families, and then he and the Triads rob the casino after a well-thought and done plan, firstly [[Explosive Situation|stealing some dynamite]], then [[Architectural Espionage|stealing the plans for the casino]], [[Key To Her Heart|stealing the swipe card]] for the casino from a [[Millie Perkins|croupier]] that becames CJ's girlfriend, [[Dam And Blast|cutting off the electricity]] in the [[Sherman Dam]], [[Cop Wheels|stealing some HPV1000 police bikes]] for the getaway, [[Up, Up and Away!|highjacking an armored van]] using a [[Leviathan]] helicopter and respraying it with the Caligula's Casino logo, and finally [[Breaking the Bank at Caligula's|robbing the casino]] with huge profits for Carl and Woozie. Carl also buys a luxurious house in [[Prickle Pine]], where Tenpenny confronts him and orders him kill an FBI agent and get a dossier. At this time, Officer Hernandez is not with the team, and is revealed that he talked to the authorities about Tenpenny and Pulaski's corrupt operations. When Tenpenny finds out that, he calls CJ and orders him to meet him in a ghost town in the desert, in a totally abandoned place. There, Carl hands the dossier to Tenpenny, who then hits Hernandez with a shovel and leaves him for dead. Tenpenny also orders Pulaski to kill Carl, but Hernandez suddenly gets up, Pulaski shoots and kills him, but CJ takes his weapon and starts chasing Pulaski in the desert. When Pulaski is nearly dead, he disrespects CJ wanting to "fuck his sister". Carl, infuriated, brutally kicks him in the head and kills him.

Tenpenny is put in court for several charges, but is acquitted due to lack of evidence. After hearing this, the whole city of Los Santos erupts in riots, reminiscent of the LA riots of 1992. Carl, firstly, helps Cesar take his hood back from the Vagos, and finally, goes with Sweet to confront and kill Big Smoke in his crack palace. CJ enters the building, fighting his way through Ballas, Vagos, Rifas and Russians, and finally confronts Big Smoke, and kills him after a gunfight in his room. Then, Tenpenny appears infuriated of CJ, he tells him he is leaving San Andreas, and he shoots him, although CJ escapes. Tenpenny then sets the building in fires and leaves. CJ is again forced to fight his way out, and finally escapes when the building explodes. Tenpenny tries to leave with a firetruck, but Sweet hangs on the back and CJ follows him. As Sweet loses his grip, Carl rescues him by putting his car right behind the firetruck, so he falls inside the car. Sweet takes the wheel, and CJ acts as the shooter, eliminating countless enemies who try to destroy their car, while Sweet chases Tenpenny's firetruck. Finally, Tenpenny loses control, the firetruck falls down and he dies in the heart of Grove Street. The riots pause, and all go inside CJ's house to celebrate their final win, and Madd Dogg's new record. As Carl goes out, Kendl asks him where he is going, in which CJ responds: ''"Fittin' to hit the block, see what's happening"''. Then, the credits roll and the game is ended. | Tenpenny is put in court for several charges, but is acquitted due to lack of evidence.
