- Houston has been shaken by the murder http://tinyurl.com/98mfa
of an 18-month-old toddler at the hands of an alleged illegal alien MS-13
member:
-
- Miguel Angel Castro, a 19-year-old El Salvador native,
is charged with capital murder in the April 12 death of Aiden Naquin, who
would have been 2 in August.
-
- Castro is accused of firing on a car driven by the boy's
father as it pulled into the Huffman trailer park in the 2700 block of
Third where the family lives. One of the bullets struck the toddler in
the head.
-
- Castro indelibly marked his body with tattoos indicating
he is a member of the Mara Salvatrucha, or MS-13, gang, said detectives
with the Harris County Sheriff's Department. Mara Salvatrucha, which was
started by Salvadoran refugees in the Los Angeles area in the early 1980s
and now reaches into 31 other states, has been the target of a federal
crackdown that last month swept six U.S. cities, netting the arrests of
103 gang members.
-
- "The biggest groupings have been in L.A., New York
and northern Virginia, but the cliques seem to be growing quickly now in
Providence, Rhode Island; Charlotte, North Carolina; and Houston,"
said Bob Clifford, who heads the MS-13 National Task Force that formed
in January.
-
- He said the task force is keenly aware of the latest
killing in Houston. Houston police want to question other suspects, who
they say were with Castro during a recent standoff, about possible connections
to nine other homicides.

- All well and good, but the fact that this Congress and
the Bush administration have done nothing--nothing--to rectify the sanctuary
policies that provide safe harbors for violent illegal alien gangs is a
bloody travesty.
