MS13 vs. Barrio18: Salvador’s Violent Gang War | Witness | Gang Documentary – Everything Law and Order Blog

With its sandy beaches, Spanish colonial architecture and volcanic lakes lined with restaurants, El Salvador has all the assets of a dream tourist destination. Yet foreign visitors are rare. The reason: this tiny state in Central America is the most dangerous countries in the world. Every year, between 3,000 and 6,000 people are murdered, in a population of only 6 million.

Since the 1990s, the country has been torn apart by a violent gang war. Members of MS-13 and Barrio 18 fight a bloody war for control of the neighbourhoods. Julio, one of the leaders of Barrio 18, opens up before the camera and lets us film the violent induction ceremony for a new member. We also meet Zorro, a hitman who committed some of the worst atrocities.

Forensic pathologist, Riccardo, specializes in the toughest crime scenes. This morning, he is investigating three dismembered and decapitated bodies that have just been found in a ravine. His colleague Israel Ticas, a forensic criminologist, is working on a politically sensitive mass grave where 26 bodies were buried some 15 years ago. Among the victims, there are police and soldiers executed by gangs.

For this documentary, the Salvadoran government also authorized us to enter the high security prison of San Francisco Gotera. Inside, 1,700 gang members are held in deplorable conditions of hygiene and overcrowding. From morning to night, the prisoners are subjected to a true evangelical religious conditioning and the sworn enemies of rival gangs must learn to cohabit in the same cells.

Welcome to the world of the Salvadoran mareros, a ruthless universe where death punctuates daily life and where people murder for a fistful of dollars.

This documentary was produced by Ligne de Front and directed by Vincent Prado. It was first released in 2021.

  1. " Blood in blood out…" 😈

    " La pinta O La Muerte " ¿A ese?

    " Death Or Prison " Eh, homeboy? Choose your faith and die, you've been dying since the day you were born. Where? El Salvador! You were already born dead in El Salvador, especially if you were born POOR!!!

    Congratulations if you were born after 2015, why? A messenger was sent to the Saviour Land (El Salvador) by the Almighty Lord Of Earth 🌎🌍 yes, GOD.

  2. This YouTube channel fail to release this early. It was sitting on it for a while . very late now you don’t hear of any gangs period . They will arrest anyone of suspicion with no rights 😂

  3. No más El Salvador ya tiene un presidente que se llama nayib bukele y esto es lo que todo los otros países necesitan así como los Estados Unidos

  4. Gosh.. You just can't escape the Church. Just another form of indoctrination, another form of gang dynamic that doesn't tolerate critical thinking. It spreads, just like the plague. As if belief in a magical man in the sky will change anything for these gang members, in the long run.

  5. There is a skinny guy from Guatemala and his girlfriend is from el Salvador. The guy says he is from ms and from florence. Has a Mexican flag on the side of his blue honda in Los Angeles. Slauson and Vermont. They are bullying the street vendors.

  6. THAT IS A LIE ZORRO DOESN'T PAY RENT FOR THAT HOUSE, THE OWNERS WERE PROBABLY KILLED OR THEY LEFT DUE TO THREATS FROM HIS GANG HE DOESN'T PAY SH….T OF COURSE HE BOUGHT THE SOFA AND THAT LITTLE TABLE WITH THE MONEY OF THE EXTORTION.

  7. Y A ESOS ASESINOS DIABOLICOS DEFIENDEN LOS DERCHOS CRIMINALES, LA ONU, LA OEA, LAS ONGs ETC. YES, ZORRO KNOWS THAT THERE ARE KIDS THAT HAVE NOTHING TO EAT AFTER HE AND OTHER GANGS KILLED THE PARENTS OF THOSE KIDS.
