此类案例不是个别现象。另一个代表性人物是 Jose Inez Garcia Zarate，他本因犯罪被遣返，但因为执法不严，他得以继续滞留在美国，结果2015年他在旧金山行凶杀人 (https://abc7news.com/amp/post/kate-stei ... /14483941/)。
美国目前估计有 75 万至 85 万名帮派成员，但尚无可靠数据能够明确区分其中有多少是外来人口、多少是美国公民。然而，显而易见的是，帮派犯罪正成为日益严重的问题。2001 年发生了 631 起与帮派相关的凶杀案，到了 2003 年，这一数字跃升至 819 起。 除了凶杀之外，帮派成员还被直接关联到毒品交易、人口贩运、证件造假以及暴力袭击等犯罪活动。
同样显而易见的是，外来人口在美国许多最暴力的帮派中占有一席之地。报告显示，加州 18 街帮派（18th Street Gang） 中有 60% 的成员是非法移民。据称该帮派“涉及多种犯罪活动，包括汽车盗窃、劫车、驾车扫射、毒品销售、武器贩运、敲诈勒索、强奸、雇凶杀人以及谋杀”。
同样，美国移民与海关执法局（ICE）报告称：“MS-13 的多数成员是非法滞留在美国的外国人。”《新闻周刊》将 MS-13（在美国估计有约 2 万名成员）称为“美国最危险的帮派”。甚至有人声称该帮派曾与基地组织接触，试图协助将恐怖分子偷运入境。
此外，外来人口显然也是这些危险帮派的关键成员之一。MS-13 洪都拉斯分支的头目 莱斯特·里韦拉·帕斯（Lester Rivera Paz） 在逃离其本国、因涉嫌伏击公交车而被通缉后，于 2 月在德州被捕。据报道，在过去四年中，帕斯曾被联邦当局 四次遣返。
同时，甚至更年轻的移民社区成员也卷入了帮派暴力。例如，《华盛顿邮报》在 2005 年 4 月 6 日报道，一名九年级学生在马纳萨斯购物中心外被刺伤并遭棒球棍殴打。普林斯威廉县警局发言人称，该受害者与 South Side Locos 帮派有关，而嫌疑人被认为是敌对帮派 Sureno-13 的成员。
While there are an estimated 750,000 to 850,000 gang members in the United States today, there are no firm estimates on how many of those gang members are aliens and how many are citizens. What is apparent, however, is that gang crime is a growing problem. Over 631 gang-related homicides occurred in 2001, and by 2003, the number of gang killings had jumped to 819. In addition to homicide, gang members have been directly linked to the narcotics trade, human trafficking, document fraud, and violent assaults.
It is also apparent that aliens are members of many of the most violent gangs in America. Reports have indicated that 60 percent of California's 18th Street Gang are illegal aliens. This gang is reportedly ''involved in many types of criminal activities, including auto theft, carjacking, drive-by shootings, drug sales, arms trafficking, extortion, rape, murder for hire, and murder.''
Similarly, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or ICE, has reported that, ''The majority of MS-13 members are foreign nationals in this country illegally.'' Newsweek has termed MS-13, which has an estimated 20,000 members in the United States, ''the most dangerous gang in America.'' It has even been alleged to be negotiating with al Qaeda to smuggle terrorists into our country.
It is also apparent that aliens are key members of these dangerous gangs. Lester Rivera Paz, the reputed leader of MS-13's Honduran branch, was arrested in Texas in February after escaping from his native country where he's wanted in connection with a bus ambush. In the past 4 years, Paz has reportedly been deported four times by Federal authorities.
In addition, it is apparent that even younger members of our immigrant communities have become involved in gang violence. For example, the April 6, 2005, Washington Post reported on a ninth grader who was stabbed and beaten with baseball bats outside Manassas Mall. A Prince William County Police Department spokesman stated the victim has been associated with the South Side Locos gang, and that the suspects are believed to be members of the rival gang ''Sureno-13.''
