SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) - Gov. Jerry Brown on Thursday blocked parole for a former Mexican Mafia prison gang leader, saying he remains a danger to society despite efforts to turn his life around and years of cooperating with law enforcement.

For the third time in as many years, Brown reversed a state parole panel decision that Rene "Boxer" Enriquez should be freed from jail.

Enriquez has been in prison since 1993, serving a sentence of 20 years to life for two murders, multiple assaults and drug trafficking conspiracy.

Enriquez is not expected to be eligible for another parole hearing for more than a year, said Laura Sheppard, his lawyer.
