Who is Crazy De from Monster: The Autobiography of an L.A. Gang Member and what is their importance?

Crazy De becomes Kody's "road dog" - or best friend - after Tray Ball is captured and jailed. Kody notes that Crazy De understands his blood lust and his desire to make a name for himself among the gang members. It's Crazy De who enters into a pact with Kody to "never stop until we have killed all of our enemies." Crazy De is in jail as Kody brings his book to a close and says that he expects to be executed for his crimes. He tells Kody that he will be true to the gang though he respects Kody's decision to leave it behind.
