President Donald J. Trump has made it clear to criminals who cause damage and devastation to our communities that they will be caught and prosecuted.
Francisco Javier Roman-Bardales, a senior leader of the violent MS-13 gang, was extradited from Mexico to the United States to face charges after FBI Director Kash Patel announced yesterday that another fugitive from the agency’s “Ten Most Wanted” list had been apprehended. Roman-Bardales was wanted “for his alleged role in drug distribution and extortion schemes in the United States and El Salvador, as well as his role in ordering numerous acts of violence against civilians and rival gang members.”
Since President Trump took office, the ruthless criminal has been captured, making him the third fugitive on the FBI’s “Ten Most Wanted” list.
