U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions on Monday named a veteran federal prosecutor on Long Island to advise a new task force targeting the MS-13 street gang and other transnational organized crime groups.
The move is the latest in the Department of Justice's broad assault on the street gang, which has been alleged to have killed at least 25 people on Long Island since 2016.
Assistant U.S. Attorney John Durham, of the Eastern District of New York, will lead the task force's subcommittee on MS-13.
