Hotel El Salvador....you can check in but can never check out alive.

Federal agents nabbed a migrant Tren de Aragua gang crew holed up in a Bronx apartment — after tracking one of their ankle monitors to the hideout, sources told The Post.
The Dec. 5 raid at an apartment building on the edge of Crotona Park landed seven alleged gangbangers in handcuffs, including a troublesome 28-year-old Venezuelan national who was wearing a court-ordered monitoring device that led the feds to the crew.
“Better late than never,” quipped a law enforcement source who wondered why Jarwin Valero-Calderon was free despite at least three busts, a Nassau County conviction and a federal deportation order.
“This is what actual supervised release looks like?” the source asked. “The thing about ankle monitors is you have to actually monitor them to be effective.”
The raid was nonetheless a significant blow against TdA, the violent gang that snuck into the US with a wave of migrants seeking asylum since 2022 — and gained a foothold in New York.
Law enforcement officials said the gang has recruited inside tax-funded migrant shelters and runs violent theft and robbery crews while peddling drugs, guns and women in the five boroughs.
“What we’re seeing is this evolution of Tren de Aragua, where they’ve gone into these sanctuary cities,” said former Denver ICE chief John Fabbricatore. “They’ve started to solidify themselves and then they throw tentacles out to multiple other locations where they think that they can continue to make money.
“I think people are finally starting to realize how bad the situation has gotten.“
According to law enforcement sources, most of the gang members busted inside the Bronx apartment were sought on multiple warrants after crossing the US border with Mexico — then disappeared.

So now what are they going to do with them? Catch and release?
Slap their hands?
Give them a sternly worded warning to be good?

Weed whacking. Much easier when you’re only 4 1/2 ft. tall. Less bending, and besides, they’re pretty good at it.
Works for me.
These gangbangers are not only dangerous, they’re obviously stupid. Wearing an ankle bracelet and leading the cops to your asshole buddies? But his stupidity may be working for him, they’ll probably give him another ankle charm and set him loose.
Bragg will let them go in the name of social justice.
NYPD is stupider than we think.
Tell me NYPD doesn’t know what kind of animals these gangs are by NOT telling me outright NYPD doesn’t know what kind of animals these gangs are.
They used an ANKLE MONITOR to track the gangbanger?
Great.
The NEXT TDA member who is given one will lose a foot and the monitor/foot will be found in a dumpster somewhere.
“The raid was nonetheless a significant blow against TdA”
TDA has a foothold in 14 to 16 states. There are a few thousand of them in the USA.
Nabbing a few in NY is a “significant blow”?
Too bad they included that in the news article as it is an excellent way to catch them in the future.
Catch one, release them with an ankle monitor, let them go back to their hideout. We need some sort of injectable tracking device.
I guess LE can only catch murdering gang bangers when there is a near literal trail of breadcrumbs to the bad guys...
Zurp4ised they caught this fella- aren’t they too busy arresting elderly grandmother’s who pray outside of abortion clinics to be bothered with going after gang bangers?
“tracking GPS ankle monitor to hideout” - as a certain letter of the alphabet would say, “these people are stupid”.
Reminds me of a Cheech and Chong radio skit from years ago....
“Hello?!”
“Hey man, listen, man, don’t answer the phone”
“hello?!”
“Hey man, I think the phone is bugged”
“Hey, I gotta go. Someone’s at the door”
muffled sound “Open up - this is Sargent Stedanko, Open Up!”
We have long had the means to combat them. All we lacked was the will.
“We have long had the means to combat them. All we lacked was the will.”
Exactly right. Like so many other organized crime rings.
“This is what actual supervised release looks like?” the source asked. “The thing about ankle monitors is you have to actually monitor them to be effective.”
The problem is that the impact of their crimes does not affect the people in the media and on Marthas Vineyard.
Our media once again rushes to tell the bad guys how to avoid getting caught. The media can’t seem to recall that the number one killer of media members are the bad guys.
“The problem is that the impact of their crimes does not affect the people in the media and on Marthas Vineyard.”
Yes. Victor Hanson drives this point home all the time. The “elites” are never affected by their policies.
But it will affect their children and grandchildren. Negatively for the most part.
