Summary
Last Friday, President Trump said, "To any member of MS-13 listening, I have a message for you. We will find you, we will arrest you, we will jail you, we will throw you the hell out of the country." With MS-13 back in the news, we wanted to share a rebroadcast of an episode we did earlier this year. Why is Trump drawing attention to MS-13 now? And what is it really like on the inside? Hosts Maria Hinojosa and Julio Ricardo Varela lead a discussion with former MS-13 member and current director of Homies Unidos Denver, Gerardo Lopez.
