What is your opinion on MS-13 gang leaders puts out hit on ICE agent assigned to crackdown?
El Salvadoran leaders of the MS-13 gang allegedly put out a contract on the federal agent responsible for a crackdown on its New York factions, the Daily News has learned.
The brazen plot to assassinate the unidentified Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent was revealed in an arrest warrant for reputed gang member Walter (Duke) Torres.
Torres tipped authorities to the plan after he and four other MS-13 members were stopped by NYPD detectives for hassling passersby on Northern Blvd. in Queens last month.
He told cops he had information to pass on, and was debriefed Oct. 22 at Rikers Island, where he was being held on a warrant issued in Virginia, according to court papers.
Torres said "the order for the murder came from gang leadership in El Salvador," ICE agent Sean Sweeney wrote in an affidavit for a new warrant charging Torres with conspiracy.
Torres, who belonged to an MS-13 "clique" in Virginia, said he was put in charge, and traveled to New York in August "for the specific purpose of participating in the planning and execution of the murder plot," Sweeney wrote.
Gang members were trying to get their hands on a high-powered assault rifle, like an M-16. to penetrate the agent’s bulletproof vest.
Another MS-13 informant told authorities the agent was marked for death because the gang was "exceedingly angry" at him for arresting many members in the past three years, the affidavit states.
The murder was supposed to be carried out by the Flushing clique, according to the informant.
Federal prosecutors have indicted numerous MS-13 gang members on racketeering, murder and drug trafficking charges. The targeted agent was the lead investigator on many of the cases.
Brooklyn Magistrate Judge Roanne Mann ordered Torres held without bail Friday. His public defender did not return a message seeking comment.
Torres immigrated to the U.S. in 2001 from El Salvador and is a legal resident.
The feds have identified various neighborhoods in Queens and Long Island as hotbeds of MS-13 criminal activity – including Jamaica, Flushing, Far Rockaway, Hempstead, Roosevelt, Brentwood and Islip.

Well its just a matter of time before they DO start murdering policemen, I mean there were cases where domestic gangs had targeted a particular cop & murdered him. And these foreign gangs are even worse (As I read about them.) So if they kill cops in Mexico or central America, they surely will not respect nor fear U.S. cops more. And these gang members many of whom are illegals, are living openly & freely in U.S. with full knowledge of their whereabouts by ICE & Police, without anyone arresting them & deporting them?…How can you expect anything good to come out of situation such as this?..

These guys could be whacked by the Gov in a heartbeat.
But the civil rights nuts want them here .

Practically any rifle will go through a bullet proof vest, m16 is low powered compared to the average deer rifle.
As for ms13, hire blackwater to exterminate them. At least give citizens the OK to kill them, i know lots of Texans would volunteer. I believe in posse comitatus, the military should not be involved inside the USA. I don’t have a problem with sending drones into Mexico though.
This is a war we need, not Afghanistan (where the drug production has increased since the US occupation)

I guess the MS-13 leaders never heard about the Enrique Camarena case, the DEA agent who was killed in Mexico by Mexican dopers. And how it turned out for those involved.
No doper is so big that they can not be got. Just ask Pablo Escobar the Colombian drug lord, oh that’s right, he’s dead.
USCIS agents know that they are subject to this types of threats, it goes with the territory.

This has been going on for many, many years. I remember last October MS-13 said they were going to kill a CBP Officer that month. Nothing happened. Not saying it can’t, and we don’t take them as empty threats, but they’ve been running they’re mouths for years.
