    HUMAN SMUGGLING/TRAFFICKING

    06/19/2018



    Federal criminal complaint filed against driver and 4 others involved in South Texas crash that resulted in deaths of 5 illegal aliens


    DEL RIO, Texas — Federal authorities on Tuesday charged five individuals for their roles in a South Texas smuggling scheme that resulted in the deaths of five illegal aliens.

    These charges were announced by the following agency heads: U.S. Attorney John F. Bash, Western District of Texas; Special Agent in Charge Shane Folden, U. S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI); U.S. Border Patrol Del Rio Sector Chief Patrol Agent Felix Chavez, and Dimmit County (Texas) Sheriff Marion Boyd.


    A federal complaint charges the defendants with transporting illegal aliens and conspiracy to transport and harbor illegal aliens resulting in serious bodily injury and death. Upon conviction, the offense is punishable by life imprisonment or death, a $250,000 fine, and five years of supervised release.


    On June 17, 2018, U.S. Border Patrol agents initiated immigration inspections on three vehicles – a 2013 Tahoe, a 2007 Suburban, and a 2008 Tahoe – traveling in a convoy on FM 2644 between El Indio and Carrizo Springs, Texas.


    According to the criminal complaint, the 2013 Tahoe yielded while the other two led Border Patrol agents and Dimmit County Sheriff’s deputies on high-speed chases. While traveling east bound on Highway 85, Jorge Luis Monsivais Jr., 20, of Eagle Pass, Texas, the driver of the 2007 Suburban, crashed as he entered the town of Big Wells, Texas. According to the complaint, Monsivais was traveling with 13 suspected illegal aliens – including one juvenile – at the time of the crash. Four of them died at the scene. Nine were transported to a hospital for medical care. One died on the way to the hospital. One was released to the custody of the U.S. Border Patrol after receiving medical attention.

    Seven remain hospitalized, including the juvenile.

    The criminal complaint alleges that the driver of the 2008 Tahoe evaded law enforcement before purposefully coming to a stop. Several people absconded from the vehicle. U.S. Border Patrol agents detained the driver, a 17-year-old juvenile, and captured 10 suspected illegal aliens in the area.


    In addition to Monsivais, the criminal complaint charges the following individuals as conspirators in the smuggling venture: the driver of the 2013 Tahoe, 55-year-old Mexican citizen Marcial Gomez Santana; and occupants, 45-year-old Mexican citizen Mariela Reyna; Marcial’s son, 21-year-old Rudy Gomez of Hockley, Texas; and, Marcial’s daughter, 19-year-old Johana Gomez of Houston, Texas. All five charged in the federal criminal complaint remain in custody.


    Of the 23 illegal aliens involved in this scheme, 21 are Mexican nationals and two are Honduran nationals.


    At this time, six of the 23 illegal aliens are being held on federal complaints as material witnesses. This investigation continues. No other federal charges have been filed. The juvenile driver is in the custody of Dimmit County authorities.


    Homeland Security Investigations is leading this investigation with the U.S. Customs and Border Protection’s Border Patrol Del Rio Sector, and the Dimmit County Sheriff’s Office.


    Assistant U.S. Attorney Paul Harle, Western District of Texas, is prosecuting this case.


    A criminal complaint is merely a charge and should not be considered as evidence of guilt. The defendants are considered innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

    Fatal SUV crash driver among 5 charged in smuggling scheme


    A heavily damaged SUV is seen on Texas Highway 85 in Big Wells, Texas on June 17, 2018 after crashing while carrying more than a dozen people fleeing from Border Patrol agents. A federal grand jury on July 18, 2018 indicted several people in Texas connected to an alleged immigrant smuggling scheme, including the driver of an SUV crash last month that killed five of 14 people inside. | David Caltabiano/KABB/WOAI via AP

    DALLAS — A 20-year-old man indicted in an alleged immigrant smuggling scheme was under federal supervision when he led authorities in Texas on a high-speed chase and crashed an SUV, killing five of the 14 people inside, according to court records.


    Federal prosecutors said the driver, Jorge Luis Monsivais Jr., and four others were indicted Wednesday by a federal grand jury in Del Rio, Texas, for their roles in the alleged smuggling scheme. All five face multiple federal counts, including conspiracy to harbor illegal immigrants.



    Authorities say Monsivais crashed a Chevrolet Suburban as he entered Big Wells, a town about 100 miles southwest of San Antonio. Five immigrants in the U.S. illegally died from the June 17 crash.


    At the time, Monsivais was on supervised release for a federal charge. Court documents show Monsivais was arrested “transporting” three immigrants to San Antonio for an average price of $1,500 per person. He had been sentenced to more than a year in prison and three years of supervised release.


    A U.S. probation officer wrote in court documents that Monsivais had received his General Equivalency Diploma, completed substance abuse treatment and participated in a mental health assessment. But, the probation officer also wrote that his “reckless behavior” and “blatant disregard for the safety of humans” show he is not willing to comply with the conditions.


    The crash happened after Border Patrol agents became suspicious of three vehicles traveling in a convoy between El Indio and Carrizo Springs, Texas. Two of the three vehicles fled when agents tried to make “immigration inspections.”


    The Suburban driven by Monsivais crashed. The other vehicle, driven by a 17-year-old boy, also fled from authorities but eventually pulled over. An affidavit said the teenager had been hired by Marcial Gomez-Santana, the driver of the vehicle that did not take off when agents approached.


    Gomez-Santana is of the five defendants indicted Wednesday. Two others charged — Rudy Gomez of Hockley, Texas; and Johana Gomez of Houston — are his children.


    Witnesses said Gomez-Santana and his son Rudy would call the family members of the immigrants to collect additional smuggling fees, according to court records. Witnesses also reported that Mariela Reyna, another indicted defendant, came to cook for the immigrants at a stash house at least two times.


    Johana Gomez told authorities that one of the vehicles was registered to her boyfriend and she went to Eagle Pass to sell it. According to the affidavit, she later said her father “needed to use the vehicle for something.”


    The teenager driving the 2008 Tahoe said Johana Gomez “was present when he discussed his role” in the smuggling venture, according to the court records.
