A senior leader of the notorious MS-13 gang — one of the FBI’s most wanted fugitives — was captured on the California-Mexico border earlier this month after more than three years on the lam, according to court records.
Freddy Ivan Jandres-Parada had been on the run since December 2020, when the US Attorney’s Office in the Eastern District of New York indicted him and more than a dozen other members of MS-13’s “board of directors” on terrorism charges.
Jandres-Parada was nabbed by FBI agents in San Diego on March 7, according to officials. He waived his right to bail the next day, CNN reported.
