[00:00:00]Saturday nights, they killed for fun.

[00:00:02]In 1980s LA, Mara Salvatrucha, or MS-13, formed from Salvadoran Civil War refugees. Led by Ernesto Deras and Jose Abrego, spreading from Pico Union to East LA.

[00:00:16]Their leader, Ernesto Deras, a ruthless strategist, orchestrated attacks on rival gangs, while presenting himself as a humble local businessman, fooling even the FBI. A 1991 LAPD crackdown, and a single cryptic phone call from an anonymous source, led to the arrest of top MS-13 members, including Deras. But the gang's power structure remained intact.

[00:00:42]Today, MS-13's influence spans the Americas, with over 50,000 members. Can law enforcement ever fully dismantle the world's most feared street gang? Comment your thoughts.
