M7D2 Transnational Gangs’ Threat to Local Communities

Q 1.The U.S. has identified MS 13 as a transnational criminal organization (TCO). What effect will that have, if any, on how this gang is dealt with. Also, why these guys and why now. The OMGers have been international for years. You might want to check out the following as background (right click and open in new tab):Identifying an organization as a TCO allows for different jurisdictions to have better intelligence gathering and allows for investigators different methods and groups to collaborate with. This also allows for victims and witnesses different rights. 2.Additionally, at an ACJS meeting, I heard a paper on Human Trafficking. The presenter made the argument that when it comes to transnational stuff, almost everything is voluntary. That is, whatever relationships, information, investigation, cooperation, etc. is done voluntarily. What does this mean for addressing the problem?

Transnational Criminal Organizations receive more attention than the normal gangs. This can have a different effect on the gangs rather than general street gangs. When a street gang like MS-13 gets a new status of a TCO, its actions are more closely monitored by the police professionals. Finklea (2018) noted “MS-13 was born on the streets of Los Angeles, CA. It was formed in the 1980s by refugees who were fleeing civil conflict in El Salvador” and this traces this gang’s roots which is buried down in the history.
