RIVERHEAD, N.Y. (AP) — Three teenage reputed members of the MS-13 street gang were ordered held without bail Friday on charges they forced a 16-year-old into a wooded area of a Long Island golf course, where two of them took turns raping her while the third stood as a lookout.
"This is one of the most brutal, heinous crimes that I have seen in a long, long time," Suffolk County District Attorney Thomas Spota said at a news conference following the suspects' arraignments. "This poor young woman is so lucky that, quite frankly, that she is alive. These are vicious young men, vicious young men and what they did to her was absolutely terrible."
The suspects were identified as 17-year-old Jose Cornejo, 18-year-old Bryan Larios and 17-year-old Joel Escobar, all of Brentwood. All three are from El Salvador and are members of the MS-13 street gang, Spota said.
Their attorneys entered not guilty pleas to a grand jury indictment charging them with rape, assault, sexual abuse, robbery and other crimes. An attorney for Larios denied his client was involved. Cornejo's attorney said he is just beginning to investigate the charges and Escobar's attorney had no comment.
Prosecutors said the three were arrested on May 29, hours after the attack occurred.
The three are accused of approaching the girl and a male friend at a Brentwood middle school at about 6 p.m. They allegedly robbed and beat the friend, who then fled the scene. The trio then allegedly told the girl they had a weapon and forced her to walk about a half-mile to a secluded area of the Brentwood Country Club golf course. It was there, prosecutors said, that Cornejo and Escobar raped the girl while Larios acted as a lookout.

Some of those dynamic dreamers Jebster wants to give the country to.
Dreamers committing acts of love.
Rubio, Perry, Mitch and Jonbon all approve. Their support of illegals tells me that.
No, I’m not one of “them” who thinks Obama is the AntiChrist. (But I’m sure they’re good friends.)
If the Kenyan had a son....
They're here legally, right?
I will gladly pull the hangman's rope or fire a firing squad rifle. Can we get this done by tomorrow afternoon?
Did they come into our country before or after Walker evolved on the issue?
Yeah, I’m sure they’re lovely boys a lot like the one currently living in our white house.
Doesn’t matter. his droids will defend his temporarily forgotten liberalism until the USCSC demands he evolve again. The it will be our fault for noticing.
Sooner or later payback is gonna be a bitch.
I’m pretty sure that Obama is not THE Anti-Christ.
But I’m pretty sure Obama and the Democrat Party are AN Anti-Christ.
This is part of their culture. Who are we to judge?
Somebody call Jeb Bush and tell him another “act of love” occurred with illegal immigration.
Is this what you are working so hard to protect?
Might have one of those in the fridge. Will have to check.
We noticed the case of Coke had words on all the cans like that.
“They’re here legally, right? “
Legal, illegal, what does it matter?
They are latinos, and therefore more important than you. They are doing the rapes that Americans won’t do anymore.
Jeb says it’s an Act of Love. Obama says you’re racist if you oppose having them run loose in the country. It’s America’s future. Enjoy!
