BP Officers Seize Almost 9 Tons of Dope Valued at $67 Million
Calexico, CA
U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers at the Calexico, Calif. east commercial facility detained a Mexican truck driver after they discovered 8.85 tons of marijuana commingled with a shipment of television screens at the port Friday afternoon, Port Director Billy Whitford said today.
The 25-year-old driver, a resident of Mexicali, was registered in the Free and Secure Trade program and was driving a 1992 GMC tractor-trailer with a shipment manifested as flat screen televisions.
Inspection of the truck through a non-intrusive gamma-ray system later revealed images with anomalies within the shipment. Upon opening the doors, several large packages fell out of the trailer.
Regarded as the largest marijuana load ever for the Calexico port of entry, officers discovered 1,019 large packages of marijuana for a total of 17,701.07 pounds, valued at about $67,264,000.
The tractor-trailer and marijuana were seized by CBP and the driver was taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents and booked into Imperial County jail to await arraignment. ICE investigation is continuing.

Why is it that Chertoff and King Jorge are the only ones who didn't see this coming?

Mexican trucks carrying all sorts of illegal stuff, from people to drugs, are here to stay, thanks to the Bush Administration.
