President Donald Trump’s attorney general, Pam Bondi, announced the arrest of three members of the notorious MS-13 gang and promised that more arrests are coming.
The three members of the gang were charged with the near-decade-old slaying of a rival gang member, 22-year-old Gerson Vilelio Vasquez-Portillo, who was killed in Palm Beach, Fla., back in 2015, authorities said, the New York Post reported.
“More arrests are coming,” the attorney general pledged as she stood with law enforcement officials in Fort Lauderdale when making the announcement. “If you are a gang member living in this country, I’d self-deport right now because we’re coming after you.”
“Jose ‘Chango’ Ezequiel Gamez-Maravilla, Wilber ‘Blue’ Rosendo Navarro-Escobar and Hugo ‘Power’ Adiel Bermudez-Martinez were the latest to be slapped with charges over the savage stabbing and shooting of the rival gangbanger in 2015,” The Post reported.
“The three other violent killings in South Florida were also carried out using knives or machetes, authorities said. The cases were only reopened in 2020 after initially going cold,” the report said.
