Reviews

What reads like a work of fiction, so vivid and fantastic is the account of this crusade against MS-13 in San Francisco's Mission District, is, in fact, the story of one investigator's Herculean effort to marshal federal. State and local law enforcement resources to take on and defeat a criminal syndicate as sophisticated as La Cosa Nostra was in its prime, as vicious as any terrorist group and as menacing and dangerous as any subversive organization this nation has ever seen, a victory that was all the more extraordinary given that it played out against the backdrop of a political establishment more concerned with promoting sanctuary for illegal alien criminals than protecting the general public from harm. Operation Devil Horns is a must read for anyone who thinks they know how MS-13 operates, the threat it poses, and what can and must be done to destroy it. -- Joseph P. Russoniello, Former United States Attorney, Northern District of California
