Community engagement

In his neighborhood, he is actively involved with Dudley Street Neighborhood Initiative (DSNI), where he works with youth from the neighborhood on community planning and organizing projects, ranging from clean-ups to planning community centers. Henriquez is also involved with the Ward 13 Democratic Committee, the NAACP, the Young Professional Network of the Urban League, the Roxbury Master Plan Oversight Committee and the Roxbury Neighborhood Council.

Kidnapping and assault charge

Henriquez was charged with assault and kidnapping of a woman in July 2012 and released after posting $1000 bond. In September, the kidnapping charge was dropped, though the others remained. On January 14, 2014, Henriquez was convicted of two counts assault and battery charges and sentenced to 2.5 years in jail, with six months to be served in the Middlesex House of Correction and the remaining two years to be spent on probation.

On February 6, 2014, the House of Representatives voted 146 to 5 to expel Henriquez. It was the first time since Harry C. Foster's expulsion in 1916 that the House had expelled one of its members.
