Another dangerous MS-13 gang member has been released onto American streets by a Biden-appointed federal judge in California.
US District Judge Jinsook Ohta ordered the immediate release of 35-year-old David Antonio Aviles Perez, a Salvadoran illegal alien and convicted MS-13 killer known as “La Bruja,” or “The Witch,” the New York Post reported.
Ohta was nominated by former President Joe Biden in September 2021 and confirmed by the Democrat-controlled Senate later that year.
Aviles Perez entered the United States in December 2013 and remained in the country illegally, according to court records. ICE finally captured him in San Diego on March 26, 2026.
At the time, Aviles Perez was wanted on an international warrant after being convicted in absentia of aggravated murder in El Salvador.
This was no minor offender.
According to El Salvador’s Attorney General’s Office, Aviles Perez and fellow MS-13 member Ismael Enrique Mendoza Flores hunted down a man in La Unión in July 2014.
