MS-13 gang member Jonathan “Kraken” Hernandez was sentenced to 43 years in prison after he pleaded guilty to luring a New York man he believed was part of a rival gang into the woods to smoke marijuana before using a machete to slash him to death.

In a statement from the Department of Justice published Wednesday, prosecutors said Hernandez — who also goes by the alias “Travieso” — deserved the lengthy sentence given the “barbaric” murder.

“This sentence ensures Hernandez will never have an opportunity to brutalize another person again,” acting Suffolk County Police Department commissioner Robert Waring said.
