Biden DOJ Gives ‘Disgraceful’ Plea Deal to Vicious MS-13 Leader Who Admitted to Involvement in 7 Murders

The Justice Department granted a plea deal to a gang leader in MS-13, allowing him to avoid both the death penalty and a life sentence despite his admission to committing seven heinous murders.
Jairo Saenz, 28, known by the nickname “Funny,” will face “up to 60 years in prison, and a minimum sentence of 40 years in prison under the terms of his plea agreement” when he is sentenced, per a Tuesday release from the Justice Department.
Saenz and his brother, Alexi Saenz, led a branch of MS-13 in Suffolk County, New York, known as the Sailors. The pair developed a reputation for brutality.
In one instance, they and other Sailors members attacked two high school students, 15-year-old Nisa Mickens and 16-year-old Kayla Cuevas, with baseball bats and a machete.
Cuevas had apparently been known for disputing with associates of MS-13. Members of the gang spotted Cuevas and Mickens walking down a residential street one evening in September 2016.
“Several MS-13 members then chased down and attacked both Cuevas and Mickens, wielding baseball bats and a machete, striking each of the girls numerous times in their heads and bodies, while the Saenz brothers’ car drove around watching for police,” the Justice Department said.
That was not the only brutal murder committed by the Saenz brothers and their associates.

Do not wait for an election. Prepare ads and radio spots describing the crimes and demand answers for the leniency. Prepare our nation for the upcoming investigations into DOJ corruption.
