Record Arrests Target Gang Leaders

Organized crime is under unprecedented pressure as law enforcement hits record highs with 189 arrests this year — a 24% jump from last year — targeting bosses, foot soldiers, and active offenders under special 2009 legislation. A major 24-year sentence was handed down to cartel lieutenant Sean McGovern for directing a criminal group linked to a 2016 murder. While arrests for directing crime dipped slightly, participation and active offense charges surged, with over 1,200 arrests since the laws took effect. The annual review of these tough measures ensures they stay sharp in the fight against gangland power. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
