Last month, members of the notorious Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua took over an apartment complex, shaking down and threatening its residents. Although 9 of its members have now been charged, TdA still poses a serious threat to our national security.

From Fox News. Nine suspected members of the violent Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua (TdA) were charged following a violent December home invasion, kidnapping and robbery in Aurora, Colorado.

The apartment complex gained widespread national media attention over claims it had been taken over by the Venezuelan gang earlier this year. …

The nine suspects were identified as:

  • Andres Alexander Liendo-Padilla, 26
  • Javier Alexander Alvarado Parada, 24
  • Jesus Alberto Alejos Escalona, 22
  • Junior Reyes-Barrios, 28
  • Barbara Sivle Medina-Arcaya, 29
  • Donarkys Teresa Suarez-Quesada, 31
  • Luigi Javier Soto-Sucre, 26
  • Niefred Jose Serpa-Acosta, 20
  • Jengrinso Elias Loreto-Petit, 26

The suspects face varying charges, including second-degree kidnapping, first-degree assault, aggravated robbery, second-degree burglary, extortion and menacing, the department said. …

The charges against the suspected gang members come after a savage saga on Dec. 17, 2024 at approximately 2:30 a.m.

The gang members allegedly forced their way into a couple’s apartment at the Edge at Lowry Apartments in the Denver suburbs and bound, beat, stabbed and kidnapped the victims, leaving them hospitalized. The perpetrators also allegedly stole jewelry from the victims. …

“I will say without question, in my opinion, that this is TdA activity. Some of these individuals have been identified as TdA gang members,” Aurora Police Chief Todd Chamberlain said at the start of the investigation. …

According to Chamberlain, this was not an isolated incident. He said the TdA members and their affiliates have regularly mistreated the couple and were extorting them for $500 every two weeks. He believes the couple were not the only victims being intimidated and extorted by the gang members.
