President Trump will "Disrupt and destroy" MS-13 - the first ever gang crackdown.

Four unidentified members of the Mara Salvatrucha "MS-13" show their tattoos in the unit where they are kept imprisoned in the National Penitentiary in Tamara.

The leader of MS-13 is now charged with terrorism, after federal prosecutors announced a nationwide crackdown on the group. This is the first time the Justice Department has charged an MS-13 member with terrorism.

Another MS-13 leader who is charged in seven killings may face the death penalty.

“Joint Task Force Vulcan’s operations have significantly degraded MS-13 capabilities. While there is still work to be done, the Department of Justice remains committed to protecting Americans threatened by MS-13, and we will not rest until we have successfully defeated this transnational criminal organization,” Barr had reported.
