Mocobizscene- Jonathan Huertas, also known as “El Don,” is now facing a range of charges, including operating as a major trafficker. His indictment in Manhattan Supreme Court is a result of his alleged participation in two kidnappings and assaults that were linked to a drug dispute in the Morris Park neighborhood of the Bronx in early 2022.
In September 2023, Huertas was apprehended in Jalisco, Mexico, after escaping New York following the arrest of three accomplices. He had been on the run for over a year and a half before being extradited back to the United States. The investigation uncovered a connection between these incidents and the theft of narcotics, leading to the inclusion of plans for a third kidnapping in the indictment.
Huertas is scheduled to appear before Justice Steven Statsinger in Manhattan Supreme Court for arraignment. He is facing multiple charges, including second-degree conspiracy, operating as a major trafficker, first and third-degree criminal possession of a controlled substance, second-degree kidnapping, second-degree assault, and second-degree criminally using drug paraphernalia.
