""I don't think he's good. He's as good as he can be," attorney Andrew Lattarulo told the Globe. "When I talked to him, I could tell he's trying to find strength in his voice, but you still hear the 13-year-old child.""
"DHS later alleged the boy has ties to a Brazilian criminal ring known as "gang 33" and "posed a public safety threat with an extensive rap sheet.""
"DeMaria likewise acknowledged the teen "unfortunately has a criminal history, a criminal past" and is "well known" to local law enforcement."
A 13-year-old boy from Brazil was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement at an Everett police station after an Oct. 9 arrest tied to a credible tip about a violent threat against another student. He has been held at Virginia's Northwest Regional Juvenile Detention Center and appeared via Zoom for a bond hearing, where his request for release was denied. Federal officials characterized him as dangerous and a flight risk. Mayor Carlo DeMaria said the youth had a long knife but no gun. DHS alleged ties to a Brazilian criminal ring known as "gang 33" and an extensive criminal history. Lawyers for Civil Rights called for an independent state probe.
