President Donald Trump’s Department of Homeland Security (DHS) reminded the public on Monday that a $5 million bounty is still available to anyone who assists the federal government in capturing one of the most brutal MS-13 gangsters in the world.
Yulan Adonay Archaga Carías, also known as “Alexander Mendoza” and “Porky,” 43, is said to be the Honduran kingpin of the ultra-violent Central American gang. The Trump administration has made its MS-13 crackdown one of its top priorities, and has designated the group as a foreign terrorist organization.
“This terrorist leader can no longer be allowed to live free as MS-13’s evil devastates communities in America and throughout the western hemisphere,” Attorney General Pamela Bondi said in a statement. “If you can contribute information leading to his arrest – come forward now.”

MS-13 is a predominantly Salvadoran gang, but operates in many Central American countries and in the United States. The criminal enterprise terrorized El Salvador before the country’s current president, Nayib Bukele, put more than 80,000 suspected MS-13 members behind bars in megaprisons called “Terrorism Confinement Centers.”

In the United States, the gang has recently been in the news after one alleged member, illegal immigrant Kilmar Abrego Garcia, was deported to El Salvador.
He was suspected of being involved in labor/human trafficking, according to a 2022 Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) report obtained by Fox News.
