Machete-wielding MS-13 gangster wanted for murder walks free after Biden-appointed judge releases him: DHS
A convicted MS-13 killer known as "La Bruja" or "the witch" is free in California after a federal judge ruled ICE held him without a required bond hearing for five months.
An MS-13 gang member convicted in a murder in El Salvador was ordered released from federal custody in California by U.S. District Judge Jinsook Ohta. The judge found that immigration officials held David Antonio Aviles Perez for five months without a bond hearing or determining if he posed a danger or flight risk, violating his due process rights. DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin criticized the ruling, accusing the judge of endangering the public and blaming sanctuary policies.
