BOSTON— A shocking admission has surfaced from the depths of gang brutality in Lynn, as 25-year-old James Jimenez pleaded guilty to a racketeering conspiracy involving heinous acts of violence. This disturbing case shines a spotlight on the violent underbelly of the Trinitarios, a notorious criminal enterprise that stretches its tentacles across the United States.

Jimenez’s guilty plea, announced today, comes in connection with a chilling record of two murders and an attempted murder. According to federal prosecutors, he was involved in the murders of Jandriel Heredia and Abraham Diaz, executed in a brazen drive-by shooting that left seven innocent partygoers injured in Lynn last September.

The court proceedings revealed the gruesome details of this gang's operations. Reports indicate that Jimenez and other Trinitarios members targeted rival gang members during a party, unleashing a hail of bullets in an act of vengeance after the death of a fellow gang member. Jimenez's role did not end with the gunfire; he also allegedly helped cover up the evidence of the crime, showcasing the depths of loyalty within this violent organization.

This case is part of a larger crackdown on the Trinitarios, with 22 members and leaders facing federal racketeering charges as part of a multi-jurisdictional investigation launched after a series of murders and shootings in Lynn. Jimenez is the eighth to plead guilty, with sentencing scheduled for March 24, 2026, where he faces the possibility of life imprisonment.

The Trinitarios, known for their strict internal hierarchy and adherence to a violent code, have created a culture of fear and intimidation in their neighborhoods. As authorities work tirelessly to dismantle this gang, the shocking revelations surrounding Jimenez's plea may only be the beginning of a broader investigation into organized crime in the region.
