by BOB PRICE 3 Aug 2023

Texas Department of Public Safety troopers arrested a Mexican national for allegedly smuggling a group of migrants across the border in the Rio Grande Valley Sector. The agents later reported finding child pornography in his cell phone. He now faces multiple criminal charges in a Texas court.

Texas DPS spokesman, Lieutenant Chris Olivarez, tweeted a photo of Christian Medrano-Alanis, a Mexican national illegally present in the United States after observing him crossing the Rio Grande with a group of four migrants. Troopers assigned to the DPS Brush Team under Governor Greg Abbott’s Operation Lone Star worked with U.S. Border Patrol agents to apprehend the Mexican national, saying that he smuggled and guided four “illegal immigrants across the Rio Grande” in the Rio Grande Valley Sector.
