Hunting MS-13: Tucker travels to El Salvador in new Fox Nation special
Fox Nation's latest installment of 'Tucker Carlson Originals' sees the host traveling to Sal Salvador, El Salvador, to learn all he can about the 'death cult.'
Police in Maryland announced they arrested an illegal immigrant teen and suspected MS-13 gang member for the killing of an autistic 20-year-old woman over the summer.
"It’s been for me, many sleepless nights … I never thought I would take this journey on losing my daughter in such a horrific way and so soon," Tammy Nobles, the mother of Kayla Hamilton, told WMAR-TV in Baltimore. "When I found out that it was a juvenile, I was shocked. I was like, ‘A juvenile did this to her?’ Like I was really shocked. I could not believe a teenager could do this."
Police in Aberdeen, located in northeastern Maryland about 30 miles from Baltimore, announced they arrested an unnamed 17-year-old boy for allegedly strangling 20-year-old Hamilton to death in July.
"Hamilton’s death was determined by the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner to be a homicide by strangulation. Detectives learned from Hamilton’s family that she was autistic and had recently moved to Aberdeen with her twenty-two-year-old boyfriend," the Aberdeen Police Department wrote in a press release Thursday.

He was arrested last Sunday in Edgewood, which is about 10 miles south of Aberdeen. He is being held without bail at the Harford County Detention Center.
