Human trafficking is big business for Mara Salvatrucha. Members recruit young Central American immigrants, usually girls, some recently arrived in the US, others shipped in by the gang, as well as female runaways, and force them into prostitution. Many of the girls have a history of sexual abuse. In 2009, there were nine child prostitution rings discovered in Maryland, Virginia, and the District of Columbia, most run by MS-13. If such activity is indicative of gang activity in all territories, the number of operations and victims could be staggering.

 

Such activity is easy money for the gang; they barely spend anything on the product (young girls), because they get it for free. According to NPR, the only thing the gang has to spend on regarding the girls is drugs and alcohol to keep them subdued.

 

In 2004, Adnan Gulshair el Shukrijumah, a top Al Qaeda leader, was seen in Honduras meeting with high-ranking MS-13 members in order to seek assistance infiltrating the US through Mexico. In 2015, MS-13 was designated a terrorist group in their own right by the Salvadoran government.
