The notorious criminal organization Tren de Aragua, or TdA as federal agents call it, has been called the “example of evil” and previously operated out of a notorious prison in South America.
But after kingpin Hector Guerrero Flores escaped last year, the mafia moved its command center to Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, on the U.S. border, directly across the street from El Paso, Texas, local officials told DailyMail.com.
“Tren de Aragua is the height of evil,” said Congressman Tony Gonzales, who represents El Paso.
“This gang is known for raping children, committing murder and causing widespread chaos.”
Tren de Aragua (Spanish for Aragua Train) originated behind the walls of the Tocoron prison in the Venezuelan state of Aragua and is now linked to widespread human trafficking and sex trafficking across the South American continent.
Law enforcement now considers the gang as dangerous as El Salvador’s Mara Salvatrucha or MS-13.
