A high-ranking member of an MS-13 clique in New York pleaded guilty Tuesday to racketeering and other federal charges in a case involving seven slayings, including the 2016 killings of two high school girls that focused the nation’s attention on the violent Central American street gang.
Jairo Saenz, 28, entered the plea in federal court in Central Islip in a hearing attended by members of his family and some of the victims’ families.
