The Department of Justice (DOJ) on Oct. 21 released a report detailing its efforts to “disrupt, dismantle, and destroy MS-13,” which showed that nearly three-quarters of alleged members of the violent gang prosecuted by the DOJ in the past four years were present in the United States illegally.
The report (pdf), which describes the DOJ’s work to disrupt MS-13 both in the United States and abroad, shows that the department has, since 2016, prosecuted 749 members of the notorious gang.
