Video Illuminating How MS Members Rob Illegals Headed North.
Analysis: It is unclear which news organization produced this video. It's interesting because it focuses on one of the activities MS-13 uses to finance itself, robbing illegals headed north. Msthirteen.com reported on this phenomenon in the past, specifically the robbery gangs that prey on the Chiapas-Mayab rail line. This video focuses specifically on illegalls who fall prey to gangs while riding the north bound freight trains. It is an interesting look at a subject that until now hasn’t received much attention.
Update: Here is another video posted online, which shows a number of people aboard a train headed north.
