This is who the state had him rooming with, not exactly easy time. The victim:

FACTS
Defendant and the victim, Michael Fairley, were members of rival sets of the Inland Empire Projects gang. The victim belonged to the Ninth Street Murder Block Bloods set and was known as "Trouble." The two men had gotten into a fistfight; the victim still had a black eye on February 3, 2002.
That night, defendant went to a San Bernardino apartment building. He asked a woman outside, Sharon Walker, "Hey, you all know anybody from Ninth Street Murder Block?" Walker answered "no" and went inside an apartment. Defendant followed her, knocked on the door, and asked, "Where's Trouble at?" He forced his way inside and shot the victim several times in front of several eyewitnesses. As defendant was shooting, he told the victim, "what's up now bitch" and "put your feet on someone now bitch." Defendant ran to a car and drove off, shouting "Projects."
