#CLONEDThings are not as they seem & our dedicated #USBP agents saw through this facade. Agents arrested a U.S. citizen & thwarted this dangerous human smuggling attempt of 8 undocumented individuals. Smugglers only see humans as cargo.#TruchaCoyotehttp://bit.ly/3vqMUQJ

“Our agents will continue to put pressure on transnational criminal organizations who believe that their illicit activities will not have consequences,” El Centro Sector Chief Patrol Agent Gregory K. Bovino said in a written statement. “This is an example of how smugglers view the humans they smuggle for profit – as if they were nothing more than cargo.”
