US citizens with outstanding murder warrants in Texas escape to Mexico, then get bust
Quote:Two US citizens were arrested by Border Patrol agents in Santa Teresa, New Mexico this week after authorities discovered they both had outstanding warrants on murder charges. They had been crossing at a popular illegal immigration route.
The arrests were made when the two male suspects, whose identities have not yet been revealed, were caught illegally crossing into the US through the southern border in Santa Teresa on a popular crossing route for illegal immigrants, per the Daily Mail.
It's unclear what the pair was doing in Mexico, but the two suspects failed to show proper identification at an official checkpoint which is a requirement to return home.
Jason Owens, Chief of US Border Patrol, announced the arrests on X and said they will both be extradited to Dallas, where the homicide reportedly occurred.
"USBP agents in Santa Teresa, NM arrested two USCs who made illegal entry into the US. Each has an outstanding warrant for Homicide in Dallas, TX. Both have multiple arrests for unlawful carrying of a weapon, drugs, burglary, and assault. Both will be extradited to Dallas," said Owens.
The arrest occurred one week after the arrest of another US citizen for trying to enter the southern border with a narcotics cache thought to be worth more than $130,000, per the Daily Mail, and highlights the amount of crimes that use the border as passage.
Authorities claimed to have discovered a sizable fentanyl stockpile when they stopped the other US citizen in a taxi that was trying to cross the border on Highway 86 in Southern California.
The illegal immigration crisis at the US southern border has dominated headlines over the past several months and has emerged as a top issue among voters heading into the November 2024 Presidential Election. Since President Biden took over the White House and rescinded strong Trump-era border policies, more than 7.3 million illegal immigrants have entered the US and that number continues to climb.

How many foreign murderers have strolled through?
We don't know because the idiot administration doesn't bother to check.

there's zero verification process of those that were never seen ... therefore, if seen = 10MM, it's pretty safe to assume 12MM...
it will be DJT's fault regardless how '24 plays out....
