On November 18th 2020, Gustavo Trevino, Orlando Reyes, and Albert Carrillo were all arrested for multiple charges stemming from a several months long investigation.
In August 2020, Mesa Detectives saw photographic evidence (open
to the public) on Trevino’s Social Media pages indicating he may be in possession of
firearms. Trevino is a prohibited possessor and this opened an investigation
which led to a search warrant that provided detectives with thousands of pages
of Trevino’s conversations. The conversations pointed to Trevino being a high-ranking
gang member of the gang “Savage Murder Crime Family 451z”. The search warrant
suggested evidence of weapon possession and a plot to commit armed robbery and
murder.
Undercover detectives made contact
with Trevino and initiated conversation that furthered this investigation.
Trevino and Reyes made numerous statements to undercover detectives leading to
the charges listed below. Trevino told undercover detectives his plan to murder
two different individuals and his desire to commit armed robbery and murder for
hire. A murder for hire plan was conceived that involved
Trevino and Reyes committing an armed robbery in exchange for the murder of the
two people Trevino wanted to kill.
After numerous exchanges with the undercover detectives
Trevino and Reyes and a third suspect named Albert Carrillo were arrested and
have been charged with multiple felonies.
Gustavo Trevino has been charged with Conspiracy to Commit Murder,
Participating in a Criminal Street Gang, Assisting a Criminal Street Gang, Narcotics
for Sale, Dangerous Drugs for Sale, and Misconduct involving Weapons.
Orlando Reyes has been charged with Conspiracy to Commit Murder,
Participating in a Criminal Street Gang, Assisting a Criminal Street Gang, Narcotics

We are proud of the hard work and dedication of all involved
in this investigation. The suspects listed above have been charged and are
presumed to be innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
