Catching the responsible for all of the crimes caused, more often the bring leaders, meaning the gang leaders, is an extremely hard job because they have a way to hide and intimidate officers as well. More than catching them, when they are locked up, they still control everything from the inside. The prisons do very little to isolate them from the outside world, and our justice system being as broken as it is, puts all of the same gang members together, making it much easier to keep on plotting.
The prisons also have limited space for the amount of criminals that roam the streets of my country. For this reason, when there is a new capture, most of the times the captures come in big sizes because the gangs are caught committing a crime together, they have to release some of the prisoners that have been there the longest, and they can go back to committing more crimes... Like I said, failed justice system.
On top of those mistakes that make it possible for the gang members to continue causing violence, the prison facilities have minimal security. They have minimal security for the most dangerous people in the country. Some prisoners have phones inside of their cells from which they call the other gang members on the outside to give them murder orders. People wonder how this is possible, and we don't even know if it's because they have a way to sneak stuff in or because the officers are that easy to bribe. The prisoners roam around the jails all day without being forced to work or pay for their crimes. And then people wonder why we can't get rid of violence...
