SUMMIT COUNTY — Recent arrests in Glenwood Springs and Eagle County have proven that human smugglers are using the Interstate 70 corridor to bring illegal immigrants into the United States.
In 2008, Eagle County has reported three incidents involving human smuggling and have moved to prosecute on two of the cases. There have been no prosecuted cases of human smuggling in Summit County.
According to the Human Smuggling and Trafficking Center, human smuggling is defined as the facilitation, transportation, attempted transportation or illegal entry of a person across an international border. As opposed to trafficking, human smuggling is generally done with the consent of the person being smuggled, and often times these individuals pay large sums of money.
