Guess their lives don’t matter…
Via Fox News:
The village of Brentwood, on New York’s Long Island, is nearly 2,000 miles from the Mexican border, but with four dead teenagers, it has become a flashpoint in the debate over federal immigration policies and their possible links to gang violence.
The murder last week of Brentwood High School students, Nisa Mickens, 15, and Kayla Cuevas, 15, and the discovery of two sets of human remains, males ages 17 and 19, in a wooded area adjacent to the Long Island Railroad have allegedly been linked to the MS-13 gang that has wreaked havoc in Brentwood.
Mickens’ family said they believe gang members tried to kidnap Cuevas, and investigators say Mickens may have been killed trying to help her friend.
Suffolk County police said on Friday that the department was launching an “all-out assault” on gangs in the 11-square-mile town as well as in Central Islip and Wyandanch.
Area residents are worried and frightened given the notorious El Salvadorean gang’s growth in the area, which they say has coincided with an influx of illegal immigrants.
