""Serrano was ruthlessly committed to a dangerous criminal enterprise, and he and his co-conspirators shot multiple victims in furtherance of a senseless gang rivalry to advance his enterprise.""
""Pedro Serrano, a leader of a Trinitarios sect, waged a reckless shootout, targeting and injuring rivals to bolster his gang's hierarchical status, jeopardizing the safety of a residential community.""
Pedro Serrano, the leader of a Trinitarios street gang faction, was sentenced to 183 months in prison for a shooting that injured three individuals on June 29, 2021. The incident was part of ongoing gang violence, and Serrano pleaded guilty to charges including assault-in-aid-of-racketeering. U.S. Attorney Joseph Nocella and FBI officials emphasized the threat gangs pose to public safety and the commitment to combat such violence, citing Serrano's actions as part of a broader conspiracy to eliminate rival gang members.
