On Tuesday, FBI Director Kash Patel reported the arrest Francisco Javier Roman-Bardales, a suspected leader of the Latin America criminal gang and terrorist organization, known as MS-13:

"BREAKING: I can now confirm that last night, working with @TheJusticeDept and other interagency partners, the FBI has extradited one of our "Ten Most Wanted" from Mexico—one we believe to be a key senior leader of MS-13, Francisco Javier Roman-Bardales.

"He was arrested in Mexico and is being transported within the US as we speak, where he will face American justice.

"This is a major victory both for our law enforcement partners and for a safer America.

"Thank you to our brave personnel for executing the mission. And thank you to Mexico's SSPC and FGE teams for their support of the FBI in this investigation and arrest."

"For those counting at home: This is the third arrest of a fugitive on the 'Ten Most Wanted' list since January 20, 2025," FBI Assistant Director for Public Affairs Ben Williamson noted, referencing Trump's inauguration date.

"Roman-Bardales was wanted 'for his alleged role in ordering numerous acts of violence against civilians and rival gang members, as well as his role in drug distribution and extortion schemes in the United States and El Salvador,'" the White House website explains, detailing the three apprehensions:

"The cold-blooded criminal is the third fugitive on the FBI's 'Ten Most Wanted' list apprehended since President Trump took office.

• Arnoldo Jimenez—a fugitive wanted on first-degree murder charges—was arrested on January 31, 2025.
• Donald Eugene Fields II—a fugitive wanted on child sex trafficking and child rape charges—was arrested on January 25, 2025."

Since its establishment, 496 of the 535 (93%) of the fugitives on the list have been apprehended. Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
