The MARA 18


Awesome collection of photographs of the infamous Mara18 gang from Guatemala. Viewer beware... some of these pics are pretty damn harsh.

Description from Victor's site: "The phenomenon of the Maras, violent Central American gangs that originated in Los Angeles, has become a nightmare in the region. After years of crime and extreme violence, the gangs have lately been subject to repression from governments tired of the insecurity, utilizing methods reminiscent of the counter insurgency wars of the 1980’s."
