The ringleader, Stefano Pachon, reportedly sold nine loaded guns throughout a months-long criminal operation, heightening concerns over illegal firearms trafficking in New York City.
Assistant District Attorney Yuval Simchi-Levi noted that Pachon had access to an 'endless supply of loaded guns,' highlighting the extensive nature of the gun trafficking operation.
Evidence tied to a separate investigation of Victor Parra, an interstate moped gang leader, ultimately led authorities to Pachon's gun trafficking ring involving multiple high-quality firearms.
Despite claiming asylum seeker protections, Pachon faces serious charges as prosecutors uncover his role in distributing firearm illegalities throughout the city's neighborhoods.
