\"\"An El Salvador man was sentenced Wednesday to life in prison for murder in aid of racketeering and conspiracy to commit murder in aid of racketeering, officials stated.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Juan Carlos Sandoval-Rodriguez, aka Picaro, aka El Pastor, aka Gasper, 24, of El Salvador, was sentenced for a racketeering conspiracy, racketeering, attempted murder, assault with a dangerous weapon, conspiracy to commit murder in aid or racketeering, as well as related violent crimes in aid of racketeering, officials stated.<\/span><\/p>\n

The crimes included three murders, connected to his participation in La Mara Salvatrucha, a transnational criminal enterprise also known as MS-13, according to authoritities.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"womanOn Oct. 31, 2019, after a nine-day trial, a federal jury convicted Sandoval-Rodriguez of murder in aid of racketeering, and conspiracy to commit murder in aid of racketeering, in connection with a murder that occurred on March 11, 2016.<\/span><\/p>\n

On Jan. 24, 2022, a federal jury convicted Sandoval-Rodriguez of racketeering charges, along with co-defendants Jose Joya-Parada, aka Calmado, 21; Oscar Armando Sorto-Romero, aka Lobo, 23; and Milton Portillo-Rodriguez, aka Little Gangster, aka Seco, 26, after a three-month trial. <\/span><\/p>\n

Sandoval-Rodriguez, Portillo-Rodriguez, and Sorto-Romero were also convicted of multiple counts of murder in aid of racketeering.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"tuftedBranches or \u201ccliques\u201d of MS-13, one of the largest street gangs in the United States, operate throughout Frederick County, Anne Arundel County, Prince George\u2019s County, and Montgomery County, Maryland. <\/span><\/p>\n

Sandoval-Rodriguez, Portillo-Rodriguez, and Joya-Parada were members of the Fulton Locos Salvatruchas (FLS) clique. <\/span><\/p>\n

Co-defendant Sorto-Romero was part of the Parque Vista Locos Salvatruchas (PVLS) clique.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Evidence at both trials established that between 2015 and 2017, Sandoval-Rodriguez and his co-defendants engaged in a pattern of racketeering, drug trafficking, extortion, murder, and brutal acts of violence against suspected rivals of the gang in an effort to increase MS-13\u2019s power in the Frederick County, Montgomery County, and Anne Arundel County areas of Maryland.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Evidence presented at the 2019 trial established that Sandoval-Rodriguez participated in the murder of a suspected rival gang member on March 11, 2016. <\/span><\/p>\n

During this murder, Sandoval-Rodriguez lured the victim to Quiet Waters Park in Annapolis, Maryland, with the intention of killing him.<\/span><\/p>\n

Surveillance video from a nearby laundromat captured Sandoval-Rodriguez and the victim walking toward Quiet Waters Park on the evening of the murder. <\/span><\/p>\n

Once the victim arrived at the park, members of the gang struck him in the head with a branch or stick, and the assailants, including Sandoval-Rodriguez, repeatedly stabbed the victim with a knife, killing him.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"While Sandoval-Rodriguez and other members of the gang committed the murder, other MS-13 members and associates stood watch outside the park to ensure no one entered or left the park, and to watch for police, so that the gang could complete the murder. <\/span><\/p>\n

Sandoval-Rodriguez cut his finger on the knife that he used to stab the victim. After the victim was killed, MS-13 members and associates buried him in a shallow grave inside the park, but Sandoval-Rodriguez did not bury the body because of the cut on his finger and fear that he would leave evidence at the scene. <\/span><\/p>\n

The body was not recovered until Aug. 28, 2017, when it was exhumed by law enforcement. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"After his arrest, Sandoval-Rodriguez\u2019s writings about the murder as well as additional MS-13 paraphernalia was recovered among his personal belongings in jail. <\/span><\/p>\n

Sandoval-Rodriguez participated in the murder to raise his status in the gang and to assert the authority of MS-13 in Annapolis.<\/span><\/p>\n

Trial evidence related to Sandoval-Rodriguez at his second trial focused on his participation in several murders, including that of a 17-year-old victim, who was believed to be a rival gang member. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"Specifically, the evidence showed that on March 31, 2017, the gang lured a 17-year-old from Annapolis to Wheaton Regional Park, where they stabbed him over 100 times, dismembered him, removed his heart, and buried him in a clandestine grave. <\/span><\/p>\n

Evidence was presented that Sandoval-Rodriguez and Portillo-Rodriguez lured the victim and, with other MS-13 members and associates, brought him from Annapolis to Wheaton Regional. <\/span><\/p>\n

Sandoval-Rodriguez, Portillo-Rodriguez, and Joya-Parada participated in the murder by stabbing, cutting, and dismembering the victim and Joya-Parada also helped to dig the victim\u2019s grave.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Trial evidence also demonstrated that Sandoval-Rodriguez participated in a murder that occurred on June 24, 2017. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"In that murder, the gang used a female associate to lure a 21-year-old woman into a car and then took her to a wooded area in Crownsville, where she was killed, her body was dismembered, and she was buried in a clandestine grave. <\/span><\/p>\n

Co-defendant Portillo-Rodriguez aided in the planning of the murder and helped lure the victim into a car. Sandoval-Rodriguez traveled to the wooded area earlier in the day to dig a hole for the victim\u2019s grave. <\/span><\/p>\n

MS-13 members caused the victim to lose consciousness, removed her clothing, and decapitated the victim with a machete. <\/span><\/p>\n

Sandoval-Rodriguez and Portillo-Rodriguez participated in the murder by stabbing and slashing the victim\u2019s body with a machete, dismembering the body, and burying the body in a wooded area. <\/span><\/p>\n

As a result of their participation in the murder, Sandoval-Rodriguez, Portillo-Rodriguez, and other gang members were promoted within MS-13.<\/span><\/p>\n

More than 30 MS-13 gang members and associates have been convicted in these cases.<\/span><\/p>\n

Co-defendants from Sandoval-Rodriguez\u2019s first case, Marlon Cruz-Flores, 25, Fermin Gomez-Jimenez, 23, Moises Alexis Reyes-Canales, and Manuel Martinez-Aguilar, aka El Lunatic, aka Zomb, 22, all of Annapolis, previously pleaded guilty to racketeering conspiracy and a firearms offense. <\/span><\/p>\n

Both Gomez-Jimenez and Cruz-Flores were sentenced to 38 years in prison, Reyes-Canales was\u00a0sentenced to 35 years in prison<\/a>, and Martinez-Aguilar was sentenced to 24 years in prison.<\/span><\/p>\n

On April 20, 2022,\u00a0Joya-Parada was sentenced to 50 years<\/a>\u00a0in<\/u>\u00a0federal prison for a racketeering conspiracy, racketeering, and related violent crimes in aid of racketeering. <\/span><\/p>\n

Portillo-Rodriguez and Sorto-Romero were each sentenced to life in federal prison, for a racketeering conspiracy and for racketeering, as well as related violent crimes in aid of racketeering, including multiple murders.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

According to federal officials, the case was investigated by the FBI; Homeland Security Investigations; ATF; Frederick Police Department; Frederick County Sheriff\u2019s Office; Anne Arundel, Montgomery, and Prince George\u2019s County Police Departments; and Anne Arundel, Frederick, Montgomery, and Prince George\u2019s County State\u2019s Attorneys, with valuable assistance provided by the Baltimore County Police Department.<\/span><\/p>\n

Assistant U.S. Attorney Zachary Stendig for the District of Maryland and Trial Attorney Matthew Hoff of the Criminal Division\u2019s Organized Crime and Gang Section prosecuted the first trial. <\/span><\/p>\n
