Shocking new court records show that the U.S. is dropping major criminal charges against MS-13 leader Vladimir Arevalo-Chavez. The move has sparked outrage, with many accusing the Trump administration of helping El Salvador’s president hide a dark political deal.
Arevalo-Chavez reportedly knows the inner workings of a 2019 agreement where President Nayib Bukele’s government allegedly made secret concessions to the gang for political gain.
Legal experts warn that deporting Arevalo-Chavez is an intentional way to bury damaging testimony. It’s not the first time either—another top MS-13 figure was deported under similar circumstances in March.
