Two suspected members of a violent Venezuelan prison gang even more hardcore than MS-13 have been released on bond.

The two suspected Tren de Aragua gang members — Dixon Azuaje-Perez, 20, and Nixon Azuaje-Perez, 19 — were released by the Aurora, Colorado Police Department after posting a $1,000 bond.

The police released the two despite the crimes they allegedly committed and despite U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement having requested that they detain the pair, as confirmed by the New York Post.

According to the Aurora Police Department, the two were involved with an attempted murder that occurred in late July. To be clear, the murder itself was committed by another Tren de Aragua gang member.

“On July 29, [we] arrested Jhonnarty Dejesus Pacheco-Chirinos, age 24, for attempted murder and other charges related to an attempted homicide on July 28 on Nome Street,” the police reported.

The Azuaje-Perez brothers were arrested later “that same day” on a separate charge of “tampering with evidence” in the murder case.

Homeland Security sources confirmed to the Post that the two brothers crossed the border in April of 2023 using the Biden-Harris administration’s CBP One app. They claimed they were seeking asylum, and were then granted entry on the basis that they were headed to New York.

Instead, the two turned up in Aurora, which, as previously reported, is dealing with an influx of Tren de Aragua gang members who’ve been taking over apartment buildings and terrorizing locals.

Aurora is a subset of Denver, a Democrat-run sanctuary city.

“Sanctuary cities do not protect United States citizens,” former Denver ICE director John Fabbricatore told the Post. “They only protect criminals, as we see in this case, where two individuals that were let in on the CBP One app were involved in a shooting and were released due to sanctuary policy, and ICE was not notified. Two men who will go back into the community and potentially commit more crimes.”

Aurora City Council member Danielle Jurinsky was also critical of the local police’s decision to release the two brothers.

“At some point, the city of Aurora and the state of Colorado have got to get serious about this,” she told Fox News. “This is just a shame. I’d like to know what the Aurora PD has planned to monitor these two now they’ve been released on bond.”

According to the Post, the brothers “are being monitored with GPS technology and are located near an apartment complex in Denver.”

As noted earlier, Tren de Aragua has become a major problem in Aurora, where they’ve seized multiple apartment buildings.

The video footage below shows some armed gang members freely moving about one apartment complex in the city:

Jurinsky previously told Fox News “without a doubt that there is sex trafficking now going on” in the area thanks to the gang’s presence.

“This is organized,” one former apartment dweller added. “They patrol the property with guns visibly, like they’re not trying to hide them. There’s no repercussion. These are ghosts.”

The former apartment dweller, a woman, just made it out of her overtaken apartment building on Wednesday thanks to help from Jurinsky and Fabbricatore.

“I literally had to borrow from everybody I know to get into a new place,” she said. “And it’s every bit of money I had.”

Part of the problem was that the police initially appeared to be missing in action. When questioned by the Post last month, Denver police union boss Marc Sears claimed it’s “absolutely inaccurate” to say the gang is taking over the city.

“They’re not any different than any other documented gang that we have,” he claimed. “I can tell you that the officers, is there a concern about this quote-unquote ‘green light’ that they have on officers. Sure, there’s a concern about it, but in my opinion, as the union president, I feel that we have been green-lighted since 2020.”

By the “green light,” he meant reports that TDA members have been given a “green light” to open fire on the police.

Speaking with a local Fox News affiliate last month, the Denver Police added that they were “not aware” of any apartment complexes being taken over by TDA.

As of late August, the police finally appear to be taking the problem seriously:
