Carl was born and raised in [[Grove Street]], [[Ganton]], [[Los Santos in GTA III Era|Los Santos]], living in the [[Johnson House|their house]] with his mother [[Beverly Johnson]], his brothers [[Sweet|Sean "Sweet" Johnson]] and [[Brian Johnson]], and his sister [[Kendl Johnson]]. Sweet and Carl joined the [[Grove Street Families]] gang as kids, and Sweet became the leader of the gang. Gradually, the Grove Street Families gained power in Los Santos, although their enemies, the [[Ballas]] and [[Los Santos Vagos]] continued to cause damage to them. However, the entry of corrupt officers [[Frank Tenpenny]] and [[Eddie Pulaski|Edward "Eddie" Pulaski]] of the community policing unit [[C.R.A.S.H.]] began to severely impact the Families, since Tenpenny entered into a full-swing alliance with the Ballas, and began cooperating with them. | Carl was born and raised in [[Grove Street]], [[Ganton]], [[Los Santos in GTA III Era|Los Santos]], living in the [[Johnson House|their house]] with his mother [[Beverly Johnson]], his brothers [[Sweet|Sean "Sweet" Johnson]] and [[Brian Johnson]], and his sister [[Kendl Johnson]].

Sometime in 1987, Carl's brother Brian died, and Carl, upon being blamed by Sweet for negligence in trying to save Brian, 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 Families, who never sold drugs due to Sweet's ban on narcotics. Eventually, high-ranking [[Grove Street Families]] member [[Big Smoke|Melvin "Big Smoke" Harris]], under duress from Tenpenny and Pulaski, secretly defected to the Ballas out of greed in hopes of heading up a drug trade ring that would fetch him high money and power, and began a deal with suppliers from [[San Fierro]], who were leaders of the [[Loco Syndicate]], the largest drug cartel in San Andreas. Shortly later, he failed to convince Sweet, but was able to add fellow high-ranking Grove Street Families member [[Ryder|Lance "Ryder" Wilson]] to his drug ring alliance, which was also expanded to include the [[Los Santos Vagos]], who had similar interests in drug trade, along with the [[Russian Mafia]], who would provide protection and arms. Through ties with the Loco Syndicate, the serving gang, [[San Fierro Rifa]], was also included in the alliance. | |||
Early in 1992, the Ballas, in cooperation with Smoke and Tenpenny, plotted Sweet's death, which could gain them the eventual capture of [[Ganton]] and the ultimate fall of the Grove Street Families. They decided to do a drive-by shooting on the Johnson House, and they used a green [[Sabre]] for the getaway. However, Sweet survived, with Beverly being caught in the cross fire instead. This forced Carl to return from Liberty City to Los Santos for her funeral. | |||
