Judge Ohta, A Biden Pick, Frees MS-13 Suspect Wanted For Murder
David Antonio Aviles Perez, arrested by ICE in March, walked free last week wanted in El Salvador for aggravated murder.
- Aviles Perez was arrested in 2023 for assault with a deadly weapon, drugs and petty theft.
- ICE re-arrested him March 26; this marks his second release in California.
- Ohta sits on the federal bench after Newsom and then Biden each appointed her.
Why it matters: The same political machine that appointed her twice let a murder warrant go unanswered.
