Emerging Venezuelan gang ‘more violent’ than Tren de Aragua targeting rural America, expert warns
- In April 2025, federal prosecutors revealed charges against 21 individuals connected to the Venezuelan-based Anti-Tren gang, accusing them of operating illegal drug and sex trafficking enterprises within New York City.
- The Anti-Tren gang formed from former Tren de Aragua members and emerged amid existing criminal competition and violence between the two groups.
- Anti-Tren members commit murder, assault, sex trafficking, and drug smuggling to protect their power and expand beyond New York City into rural U.S. Areas.
- Robert Charles, former U.S. Assistant secretary of state, observed that Anti-Tren seeks to set itself apart by escalating violence and focuses on rural areas in the U.S. Where they can operate more freely and profitably with minimal interference.
- Experts warn that if U.S. Authorities delay action, Anti-Tren could grow in numbers and violence, especially in rural communities lacking proper law enforcement infrastructure.
