Another Forming Kaos Gangster Pleads Guilty to Mexican Mafia-Related Operations in Orange County
Arrested in a massive, 2011 law enforcement sweep designed to wreck the gang's operations, Kirk Ray Butterfas had originally pleaded not guilty to a federal indictment accusing him of participating in a Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Conspiracy.
Butterfas, already a convicted felon, faces a maximum punishment of 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
His guilty plea before trial will likely substantially reduce his exposure.
But his criminal rap sheet--including prior three incarceration trips for gang activities--won't impress U.S. District Court Judge James V. Selna or Assistant United States Attorney Terri K. Flynn.
Last month, we told you about Douglas Joseph Jackovich (AKA "DJ" and "Temper"), another Forming Kaos gangster who switched his plea to guilty. Jackovich is facing a maximum life in prison sentence, but his criminal defense lawyer believes he'll likely get around 10 years in the federal slammer when he's eventually sentenced.
Both Jackovich and Butterfas are 30 years old and remain locked inside the Santa Ana Jail.
