Albuquerque, NM (KKOB) — 37-year-old Estefania Primera, allegedly linked to the Venezuelan prison gang Tren de Aragua has been charged with human trafficking for allegedly drugging a woman so men could pay to have sex with her at an El Paso hotel. Authorities in El Paso confirm that the gang has been expanding through the Western Hemisphere over the past few years, and now more members are appearing in the Southwest. The group continues to make headlines in both Colorado and El Paso. Last month Albuquerque FBI Special Agent Raul Bujanda stated that geography plays a part in the gangs reach. New Mexico sits in the the middle of both these states. To think there isn’t a presence in New Mexico would be foolish on our part from a law enforcement standpoint, and for anyone else who lives in our community.
