Defining gangs

The link between the brutal murders of 11 victims and the MS-13 gang has captured the attention of President Donald Trump. It also prompted Attorney General Jeff Sessions to visit Long Island and Suffolk County Police Commissioner Thomas Sini to declare war. State Sen. Tom Croci said he supports a new bill that would target gangs. The legislation would include strengthening felonies for gang-related violence and recruitment of members. For the first time, it would clearly define street gangs.
