SAN ANTONIO, TX
A federal jury in San Antonio on Thursday found former Texas
Mexican Mafia general Jacinto Navajar and two lieutenants guilty of
conspiracy. Federal agents arrested 34 members of the gang in 2008,
but these three were the only ones who went to trial.
The other members pleaded guilty. Prosecutors pinned six murders
on Jose "Bam Bam" Martinez and two on Mike Garcia.
Federal prosecutors say they were hit men who killed others for
cooperating with police or undermining the gang.
All three face life in prison. Sentencing is scheduled for
August.
