- In January, authorities confiscated various firearms, extended magazines, controlled substances, and counterfeit papers from the suspects' homes, and in March, Padilla received a sentence for unlawful entry into the United States.
- Authorities also arrested 16 additional Tren de Aragua members on immigration charges in Chicago and Raleigh, while criminal investigations and deportation efforts remain ongoing amid litigation delays.
