From the Wave:Twenty-five members of the vicious La Maria Salvatrucha (MS-13) South American street gang were indicted this week in federal court in Islip, Long Island, charged with 70 counts of murder, including the death of Mario Alberto Canton Quijada, 25, of Beach Channel Drive, who was found dead with multiple stab wounds on Beach 12 Street in Far Rockaway on March 17 last year.
Two of the men facing federal trial are Roger Alvarado of Queens and Heriberto Martinez of Central Avenue in Far Rockaway. Those two, along with a third, unindicted man, were found on the beach by police. Police say that uniformed officers on patrol on the boardwalk at about 12:34 a.m. on March 17, 2010, spotted three young men on the beach.
The cops went down on the sand to investigate the three and found Quijada with multiple stab wounds to his body.
An ambulance was called and EMS workers declared him dead at the scene.
The three men on the beach with the body were taken into custody and transported to the 101 Precinct in Far Rockaway for questioning.
At the time, local sources conjectured that the murder may have been the result of a fight between rival gang members.
The three men were arrested and transported to Queens Criminal Court for booking.
The three were identified by police as Diego Marroquin, 19, of Mott Avenue; Heriberto Martinez, 23, of Central Avenue and Roger Alvarado, 30, of Queens.
Marroquin and Martinez were charged in Queens Criminal Court with murder and criminal possession of a weapon.
State charges against Alvarado were brought later on, according to court sources.
Martinez is charged in the federal indictment with not only the murder of Quijada, but with an earlier murder in Central Islip (Long Island) in which a woman and her two-year-old son were shot and left in a secluded wooded area on the island.
All of the men are charged with a series of violent crimes, including attempted murder, conspiracy to murder rival gang members and assaults that left a number of people badly injured.
Court documents say that MS-13 is a violent street gang, made up primarily of illegal immigrants from El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala.

These are the major strongholds of Salvadoran/Guatemalan/MS-13
I informed the 109th precinct about MS 13 gang graffiti exhibited all over Flushing 3 years ago.
The commander yawned, "No real problem here".
Every 2 years the 109th seems to get a new captain.
It's known around town as the "promotion precinct".
They change captains so often, I can't even remember the current commander's name.
No matter, we'll have a new one next week whose name I'll have to remember.
It's very simple: put out fires, keep us safe, fix the streets, pick up the garbage. The rest is all a scam.
I believe the correct name of the gang to be, 'Mara Salvatrucha', not La Maria Salvatrucha. The gang is named after the street in LA where the original 13 members, hung out back in the 1980's. (from Wiki)
These savages thrive in Sanctuary city's. The mayor should be expunged jailed and charged with gross negligence with the lives of over 2 million people.
The mayor has turned NYC into another Los Angeles.
At this point all we need is the police helicopters going all night with the Q beams.
Give it another 6 years when the 1 million feral s currently in grade school join gangs to survive.
Its going down, you aint seen nothing yet
I remember only too well during the routine friday morning john gambling show with blOOmburg,a listener called in with similar concern inregard to crime and co$ts of our sanctuary city and WHY THE HELL NOTHING'S DONE...and blOOmburg without skipping a beat simply said back- " the illegals ? oh they're stayin"---this was a while ago but still there was NO backlash.
i fail to understand why this just keeps going on and on
and WHY ALL that entered legally,paid all the application/filing and legal fees etc simply remain silent....
too bad we don't have the death penalty and exactly like back in the day without years of appeals.
If you walk the streets on nyc unarmed,you are a fool........
