Dude... I didn't even know Snoop was a girl until half that particular season was over. lol... And yea... she's terrifying because it's so real and possible that someone as innocent looking as what seems to be 13 year old boy is as hard as she is. She's freaking ruthless in the show. You don't see her until later though.

Yea, the whole show is pretty much based in reality as far as events, even names in some cases, like Avon Barksdale, etc... their roles, everything. It's a really good series.
