- I have just finished a lengthy 90-minute interview with
a verified American national who is an alien smuggler. This interview was
witnessed by a member of the newsmedia who has conducted their own investigation
into this smuggling operation for over 1 years time.
-
- My expertise was solicited to help clarify who the government
agents might be and to help prosecute them.
-
- Although I have to sanitize certain information for later
use through the DOJ or newsmedia, the basics are that 1 man of about 40
"coyotes" or smugglers, mostly American has smuggled at least
5 people in the trunks of their cars each day Monday -Friday for $1,500
each day for the last couple of years prior to, during and after 9-11.
(That's about 1600 felonies for all of the aliens smuggled in by ONE smuggler.
) That's about $195,000 for one years work less than 2-3 hours work each
day.
-
- It was apparent the INS knew this smuggler and that the
AUSA (Assistant United States attorney) had full knowledge of these incidents
and even "waived" prosecution and allowed this and many other
violators to return to Mexico without being arrested or booked into MCC(federal
prison). INS officials also recognized the defendant and were on friendly
terms with the smuggler.
-
- These people are all connected to 5 families in the Tijuana
area region alone and connected to various other smuggling organizations
in the Arellano Felix Organization. (The Game as it is referred to is the
act of smuggling humans or other contraband across the border) narcotics
was NOT smuggled, but was offered in case a smuggler wanted to make extra
money.
-
-
- Of the many times smuggling, this informant was only
caught about 8 times and only charged by the San Diego U.S. Attorney's
office with ONE felony act of smuggling. Later reduced to less than 3-4
months prison to prevent exposure of government complicity in conspiracy
to smuggle and aiding and abetting smuggling, etc...When confronted with
the prison term, the defendant merely threatened to expose all INS or Customs
officials in front of a jury the government's involvement and to go to
the newsmedia.
-
- At $1,500 a day for smuggling, the government also promised
to pay up to 25% of any proceeds where narcotics were recovered and the
defendant could keep all the money including the $40,000 offered to smuggle
on one job.
-
- The informant has implicated INS and possible Customs
officials in this large smuggling operation.
-
- What's even more shocking is that after 9-11 this particular
smuggling organization was given full reign or carte blanche to smuggle
from now on as long as it was only Mexicans. (Not other nationalities and
NOT one ever got caught that had anything other than Mexican) It appears
someone has given the "green light" to allow people in from Mexico
according to the informant.
-
- Payments were routinely made in a public place everyday
after the jobs were finished and on several occasions in front of "off
duty" INS/Customs officials who were having breakfast in a restaurant
in San Ysidro nearby.
-
- At a later time, the defendant was approached by "several"
agents from INS, Customs, IRS, DEA, etc....and asked to work for them in
in a "sting" operation that was involved in smuggling. The defendant
allegedly co-operated but turned down the offer as he was out of "the
game" for a while and did not wish to take such a risk at this particular
time.
-
- The informant was very clear about the fact that Customs
and INS officials at the San Ysidro Port of Entry knew very well what he
was doing and did NOT prosecute him. In fact, routinely fingerprinted,
photographed and returned to Mexico where he used to live. The case files
were later discovered "missing" or "lost".
-
- The smuggling organization was connected to the AFO in
the Tijuana area and other influential people's names were mentioned.
-
- This information will be turned over to the proper agency
for investigation and also the newsmedia in case the U.S. Attorney is complicit
in the conspiracy to smuggle charges. After all, the AUSA's office makes
the determination as to whether they will prosecute each case or not.(This
all involves the years 2000 to present)
