EXCLUSIVE: Transgender MS-13 Gangster Convicted in Killing of 14 Year-Old Boy Files Discrimination Suit Against Donald Trump
A former gang member serving a 21-year prison term for charges related to the 2016 abduction and murder of a 14 year-old has filed a lawsuit against President Trump and the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) alleging that he is being discriminated against on the basis of his “gender identity.” Oscar Contreras Aguilar is claiming that the BOP “refuses to recognize” him as a woman.
Under the alias “Atrevido,” Contreras Aguilar was a member of the international criminal network known as Mara Salvatrucha, or MS-13, one of the most notorious and violent transnational gang syndicates which operates in an estimated 10-15 countries. MS-13 was established in the 1980’s by El Salvadorean immigrants to the United States, and currently cooperates with Mexican cartels in drug distribution schemes. The gang also facilitates the sex trafficking of women and children, and is known for its extreme brutality, requiring inductees to commit murders by machete, or to torture and dismember rivals.
In recent years, MS-13 has been active on the US east coast. In the DC Metropolitan area, members have been accused of horrific crimes, including the brutal slaying of a Montgomery County man who was decapitated, stabbed over 100 times, and had his heart removed, as well as multiple incidents of the videotaped torture and slaughter of young teens in Fairfax County.
In September 2016, law enforcement in Fairfax County, Virginia discovered the bodies of two teen boys buried in the woods of Holmes Run Park. In 2018, eleven members of the MS-13 gang Locos Salvatrucha were arrested in connection to the slayings and charged with conspiracy to commit abduction and murder, with Oscar Contreras Aguilar among them.
Along with his MS-13 clique, Contreras Aguilar lured 17-year-old Edvin Mendez to the park on August 28, 2016 and killed him because they believed he was a rival gang member planning to infiltrate their group. Shortly after, they killed 14-year-old Sergio Triminio because they believed he was assisting law enforcement in their investigation into Mendez’s disappearance.
Incarcerated since 2017 for the crimes, Contreras Aguilar has complained of multiple attempts on his life by incarcerated members of MS-13 and other gangs as a result of his status as an informant to the FBI. His legal complaint against the former US Attorney General Merrick Garland was dismissed at the beginning of 2024. Months later, Contreras Aguilar began claiming to identify as a “female,” calling himself “Fendi G. Skyy,” and has argued that “transgender women prisoners in men’s prisons,” such as himself, are subjected to “harsher, more degrading treatment than their cisgender counterparts.”
A civil action complaint against US Attorney General Garland, filed by Contreras Aguilar in 2022, states that he had been working with the authorities in 2016 and 2017, and that his 21-year sentence was a result of a plea agreement. “While in the community, [Contreras Aguilar] was working with the Suffolk County Police Department and the Long Island Gang Task Force of the FBI in New York as an informant,” reads the complaint.
Contreras Aguilar was taken into custody in March 2017 in connection with the murder of 14-year-old Triminio. He was sentenced to 252 months in May 2021. During interviews conducted by the FBI, Contreras Aguilar told investigators that he became a member of the Park View clique after committing murders in El Salvador on behalf of MS-13.
After being told that the gang suspected Triminio of assisting police in the disappearance of Edvin Mendez, Contreras Aguilar ordered the boy’s murder, and ordered two affiliates, or “chequeos,” to kill him.
Video footage recovered from one of the men’s phones depicts what investigators believe to be the brutal murder of the boy. According to an affidavit from FBI Officer Raymond Betts, in the murder video “the victim can be seen lying face down on the ground while multiple subjects are striking the victim with weapons, including a kitchen knife and a machete.”
Contreras Aguilar has been transferred to multiple prisons in the span of just four years. Initially detained at Virginia Beach Correctional Center in 2021, according to court records, Aguilar was transferred to USP Lee, then to USP Tuscon in Arizona, then USP Allenwood in Pennsylvania in 2023, and was once again moved, to Coleman Correctional in Florida, earlier this year. Curiously, however, Reduxx was informed by authorities in Virginia that Contreras Aguilar’s records could not be located within their database.
Aguilar has contacted the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) and has expressed concerns for this safety on multiple occasions. “Due to [Aguilar’s] known cooperation with the government against the MS-13 gang, [Aguilar,] who is a former MS-13 member, will not be able to walk into an a BOP active yard because gang members would attempt to kill plaintiff,” reads the civil action complaint.
“The Authority of the US Attorney (AUSA) in plaintiff’s criminal case contacted the Bureau of Prisons to arrange for plaintiff to go to a drop out yard… however, the BOP did not agree to put plaintiff in a drop out yard unless plaintiff agrees to waive his 5th Amendment right to not be compelled to incriminate himself.”
The complaint goes on to argue that the BOP retaliated against Aguilar with their decision to transfer him to USP Lee, “which is an active yard (a yard in where the BOP lets the gangs run gang activity and do paperwork checks), even though the BOP knows that plaintiff’s life is at risk of bodily harm and / or death because of plaintiff’s past cooperation with the government… against multiple members of the MS-13 notorious gang.”
Aguilar goes on to allege that gang members in the prison have attempted to kill him after they accessed his court records through the Public Access to Court Electronic Records (PACER) system.
“Upon arrival at USP Lee, Sur 13 [affiliated with the Mexican mafia] and MS-13 members in Unit E approached plaintiff and demanded to see plaintiff’s paperwork (sentencing transcripts, plea agreement, etc.)… Gang members were plotting to stab plaintiff because they had found out about plaintiff’s cooperation through PACER.”
Contreras Aguilar claims he was mocked by prison staff for requesting protection, despite having assisted the FBI. He says he was then told he must voluntarily commit himself to solitary confinement, waive his Miranda rights and 5th Amendment rights, or he would be “transferred into another active yard where plaintiff would be ‘butchered’ by gang members.”
His initial legal complaint against Attorney General Garland was dismissed in January 2024, but by July of that year, he had begun claiming to be a “transgender woman” who “identifies as female.” According to his most recent legal complaint, he began taking feminizing hormones and calling himself “Fendi G. Skyy.”
The first civil rights complaint to cite his “gender identity” was submitted by Contreras Aguilar in August 2024. In the complaint lodged against the Bureau of Prisons (BOP), Contreras Aguilar states that he was held in solitary confinement for months at a time, conditions which had pushed him to “the brink of insanity” and contributed to him being diagnosed with “gender dysphoria.”
“Plaintiff is currently suffering from severe exacerbation of her mental illnesses, especially her gender dysphoria, as she has no access to shaving supplies, make up, female hair clips, social support, etc,” reads the complaint.
The document goes on to state, “Inmate Contreras Aguilar’s gender dysphoria became apparent around age 14. Inmate Contreras Aguilar also reported growing up in an environment where she was surrounded by ‘female energy’ in her community, mostly through family members her age and being raised by maternal figures. While this does not directly add to her gender dysphoria diagnosis, she reflected having strong feminine experiences around her as a child, including ‘dressing up as a girl.’ She noted this felt ‘comforting.'”
Additionally, on June 20, Contreras Aguilar filed a lawsuit against President Donald Trump, seeking a temporary restraining order prohibiting the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) from employing male prison guards to conduct strip searches on him, and from implementing or enforcing an executive order that would bar male convicts from being transferred to women’s prisons.
In particular, Contreras Aguilar named Trump’s executive order 14168, “Defending Women from Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Government,” which, he argues, “discriminates on the basis of sex.”
In addition to his complaint about being strip searched by male prison guards, Contreras Aguilar is seeking “female cosmetic items, such as lip gloss, make up, lipstick, hair dye, bras, [and] panties,” as well as ongoing access to feminizing hormones. To be denied this, he argues, puts him “at increased risk of serious harm or death by suicide.”
“Prior to Trump’s order, the BOP, including USP Coleman 2, provided female undergarments to transgender women, including plaintiff, upon arrival at the institution, and female undergarments as well as other female cosmetics were always available for purchase on commissary,” Contreras Aguilar states. “That is no longer the case.”
He further alleges that BOP staff are “maliciously” referring to him as “Mr,” and “he,” and that this “deliberate misgendering” causes “severe psychological and emotional pain and distress,” and “greatly exacerbates plaintiff’s gender dysphoria to the point of suicidal ideation.”

With respect, he can f*ck off.
Kills a kid and finds out he can't handle hard time. Now he wants a transfer to the women's pen. Sorry, dude, I doubt you had any "gender identity" problems when you were committing violence and murders. I realize this may be shallow, narrow, and single-faceted, but... you don't have the right to move over to where you can dominate, beat up and rape most of the other inmates because you don't like the male prison. Your "one flew over the cuckoo's nest" stunt seems transparent.
