Illegal immigrants involved in deadly crash near US-Mexico border paid up to $10K each to be smuggled: report
That’s a lot of money.
[FoxNews] The illegal immigrants colonists who were involved in a fatal Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, highway crash last week reportedly paid up to $10,000 each to be smuggled across the U.S.-Mexico border.

The 25 immigrants colonists were jammed into a single SUV that crashed into a semi-truck in Holtville, a town about 125 miles east of San Diego, near the border.

13 of the passengers were killed. The remaining victims are still being treated for their wounds, but are likely to be deported once they recover — unless they file an asylum claim, according to the Daily Mail which was the first to report on their payments.

The immigrants colonists paid between $5,000 and $10,000 to be smuggled across the border, with Guatemalan immigrants colonists paying the highest fee. Their ages ranged from 15 to 53 and were a mix of males and females, officials said.

Customs and Border Protection sources told Fox News that the crash happened after a hole was cut in the border fence near Calexico, Calif.

The fence, likely constructed some time between 2007 and 2009, was cut several miles east of the port of entry and did not involve Trump wall construction.

#4 There were 25 people in the vehicle (25 x $5,000 is $125,000 to smugglers)!
The coyotes removed all but the two front seats to fit them all in the large SUV.
So 12 others are seriously injured because the coyote driver was speeding and lost control and hit a heavy gravel truck.
So 12 seriously injured illegal aliens are in a US emergency room at American taxpayers expense (13 x $4,000 is $52,000 per day).
I recommend returning the aliens to their country of origin ASAP to save taxpayers millions of dollars.
The California AG should sue the Biden Administration to recover the lost funds.
Except California's AG was just approved as Biden's Secretary of HHS.
While acting as California's AG, Xavier Becerra was busy suing and putting pro-life organizations and their members out of business so Planned Parenthood had no competition.
One can imagine what Becerra would do running HHS as a lawyer.
During his confirmation hearing even Mitt Romney had to question Becerra's stance on partial birth abortion.
My guess is Becerra will get Planned Parenthood to takeover HHS to implement the global cabal agenda to abort American babies
and replace them with young unaccompanied minor refugees from central and south American countries.
The blue state public schools will raise these orphaned children under the woke agenda to perpetuate their global agenda.

1st of all thanks "trailing wife"


OK whether they paid up front or will have to pay by working it off over the next year, is the smaller argument.

Think about the fact that illegals working in the USA at NON-Taxed wages sending $$$$$ back to the Human Trafficking smugglers and part back home using Money orders or
Money-Grams.

All of this money being drained out of our economy, along with stolen jobs, Social Security not being funded, US and State taxes being avoided, Hospital care bills unpaid and on and on. Now add between 11.1 and 12.4 Million others already doing the same thing. Or about $100 Billion per year in drainage and related impacting items and issues.


Ref: Send the bill to Biden to Pay...
Biden does not pay anything.
WE THE PEOPLE PAY.


Maybe if there was a Congressional salary/US Budget clause. Where if the budget is not balanced then Congress must forgo further spending and a salary until it is.

#7 If they had that kind of money to PAY the traffickers they'd be rich where they came from, so the fee is being paid by others - indentured service deals which are essentially slavery, or by sympathetic parties, for altruistic reasons or more likely for political ones (vote buying.)

#8  so the fee is being paid by others - indentured service deals which are essentially slavery

Hence the Human Trafficking tag.

You are very welcome, dear NN2N1. I had a feeling this one might be of interest to our people.

#9 25 @$10k per haul a good business

Though, 25@150lbs in a SUV is poor execution.
