Scuzzballs

The Scuzzballs were a network of street gangs that operated in the lower levels of Coruscant. They were associated with the Black Sun crime syndicate, and a majority of their operations included drug dealing and contract murder; they were one of the largest gangs on Coruscant, with more than 15% of all incarcerated persons in Coruscant prisons being affiliated with the Scuzzballs. The biggest Scuzzball gang was the CoCo Town Scuzzballs, who operated in the CoCo Town neighborhood and boasted at least 700 members during the Imperial era. The Scuzzballs were involved in numerous "turf wars" with Hutt Cartel-aligned gangs, and had a presence in nearly every impoverished neighborhood on Coruscant.

As the Scuzzballs were a loose alliance of gangs rather than adhering to a strict hierarchy, it had no particular leadership, though it is believed that they were formed by a Twi'lek drug lord and moonshiner known only as "Scuzzy", who was killed in a firefight with rival gangsters in 41 BBY.
