The Trump administration celebrated the prosecution of accused MS-13 ringleaders, but the case against a key suspect fell apart twice before ultimately collapsing. Moises Rivera-Luna, allegedly an MS-13 mastermind who ordered murders in El Salvador, was initially brought to the US as part of the investigation.

The failed prosecution marks another setback for the Trump administration's law enforcement efforts.
