    Don't tell me, all this is because Fox News, the entertainment channel, says so?

    Illegal immigrant charged in 4 murders told police he killed because he needed money for meth

    ICE confirms teen suspected in Nevada murder spree is an illegal immigrant

    An illegal immigrant charged with murder in the deaths of four people in Nevada earlier this year told police he committed the killings because he needed money to buy meth, a detective said Thursday.

    Wilber Ernesto Martinez-Guzman, a 20-year-old Salvadoran national living in the U.S. illegally, broke into tears and repeatedly called himself an “idiot” before confessing to the murders during an interrogation hours after his arrest in Carson City on Jan. 19, a detective told a grand jury.

    WASHINGTON STATE DEPUTY WAS KILLED BY ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT, ICE SAYS

    Martinez-Guzman had initially denied being behind the slayings and was smiling and giggling while being interrogated, Washoe County Sheriff’s Detective Stefanie Brady told the grand jury March 13, according to transcripts obtained by the Associated Press. When confronted with several contradictions, however, he then admitted he had “done something that’s unforgivable.”

    Brady said he told her that he shot his victims “because of the drugs.”

    “He said he needed the money for the meth and it was the meth,” Brady testified.

    She added that Martinez made “lots of eye contact” during the early part of the interrogation and said he was initially fine without having an attorney because he was adamant he did nothing wrong.

    When asked about certain items stolen from two of the murder victims, Brady said Martinez-Guzman began to cry.

    “He talked about how he was an idiot. He repeated that several times,” Brady said. “He talked about how he had done something that's unforgivable.”

    Martinez-Guzman was indicted last week on four counts of murder with the use of a deadly weapon, three counts of burglary while in possession of a firearm and one count each of burglary, burglary while gaining possession of a firearm and possession of a stolen firearm, according to the Associated Press.

    Federal officials have said Martinez-Guzman is in the U.S. illegally, but they don’t know when or how he came across the border. Officials said they were seeking the death penalty in the case.

    Martinez-Guzman attorney had no comment after reviewing the transcripts.

    The Associated Press contributed to this report.

    First of all, there's no such thing as an illegal immigrant. After adjudication, they may find an immigrant to have immigrated illegally. So, you can say someone committed a crime but you can't say that a person is illegal.
    Of course, all this doesn't matter, the man is Hispanic and therefor filth, the kind of filth that rapes, murders, steals and is involved in the drug trade with calves the size of cantaloupes.

    Fox news the self confessed entertainment channel. When I want really truthful facts, I rely on an entertainment channel. No fake news there.

    Defense secretary OK's $1 billion for border fencing help

    [​IMG]© Thomson Reuters A U.S. Border Patrol vehicle stands at the U.S. and Mexico border fence by in Tijuana, Mexico, January 21, 2019. REUTERS/Shannon Stapleton

    WASHINGTON — Acting Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan has authorized the Army Corps of Engineers to begin planning and building 57 miles of 18-foot-high fencing in Yuma, Arizona, and El Paso, Texas, along the U.S. border with Mexico.

    The Pentagon says it will divert up to $1 billion to support the Department of Homeland Security and Customs and Border Patrol. The funding would also go toward installing lighting and constructing roads in those areas.

    Shanahan says the Corps' focus will be on blocking "drug-smuggling corridors."

    The El Paso sector has suddenly become the second-busiest corridor for illegal border crossings after Texas' Rio Grande Valley, many of them asylum-seeking families from Central America. The Yuma sector has also witnessed a jump in illegal crossings, particularly Guatemalan families in remote areas.

    Illinois woman held 33 Guatemalans in basement, forced them into labor, threatened deportation, authorities say

    By Katherine Lam | Fox News

    Concepcion Malinek, 49, was arrested on forced labor charges following an federal investigation. (Kendall County Sheriff's Office)

    An Illinois woman was arrested after she held 33 Guatemalan immigrants, including children, in her basement, forcing them to work and threatening them with deportation, federal authorities said.

    Concepcion Malinek faces forced labor charges following a Tuesday morning raid at her Cicero home, where they discovered 19 adults and 14 children, all believed to be from Guatemala, in the basement, a 12-page complaint filed in the Northern District of Illinois stated.

    It’s unclear if the Guatemalans were in the country legally, however a victim told authorities he believed a majority of them had claimed political asylum. He claimed at least two of them were in the country illegally, the complaint stated.

    Federal authorities began investigating Malinek in March after a person who worked with one of the victims contacted the FBI about potential human trafficking occurring at the residence.

    Malinek helped the immigrants travel to the U.S. in 2018 and 2019, but then accused them of owing her thousands of dollars once they were on American soil, the complaint stated. To pay her back, Malinek allegedly forced them to work in a factory in Romeoville and took them to and from their workplace in a white passenger van.

    The 49-year-old kept track of the Guatemalans’ debts in a ledger, which appeared to contain signatures and “contract-type language regarding the debts owed to Malinek,” authorities said. One of the “contracts” stated the victim was “free to leave or stay” after the debt was settled.

    The immigrants received a minuscule amount of the money they earned, according to the complaint, because the majority of it went to Malinek to pay the debt they owed, authorities said.

    One of the victims told authorities Malinek claimed he owed her $18,000 for letting him use her name and home address on his immigration paperwork. He said Malinek allowed his 15-year-old daughter to live on the first floor of the house, but left him and other people in the basement. He would only be able to see his daughter “for limited periods of time” and had to ask for permission to leave the basement, according to the complaint.

    Another victim, who allegedly agreed to pay Malinek about $37,000 to get him and his family into the U.S., said he lived in the basement with his wife, 12-year-old son and 10-year-old daughter.

    Malinek allegedly kept her captives quiet about the scheme by threatening deportation and dared them to call immigration officials.

    “They already know you are here, so go ahead and call them,” she told them, according to the complaint.

    She allegedly told one person, “immigration knows how many people live in this house, you guys are poor and I have all the money.”

    Malinek is expected to appear in court on Thursday.

    Nothing wrong with blocking drug-smuggling corridors. Just make sure the locations are heavy drug smuggling corridors and that the fence is neither easy to go over the top nor easy to tunnel under. No sense paying for a useless feature.

    ummm, you best not take that unthought out idea to Mexico and execute.

    Entry is allowed at Ports of entry only. When arrive by boat as I have several times, here is the procedure.
    If you do not follow this or show up at other than a Port of entry, you will be considered and illegal. I guarantee it.

    ARRIVAL FORMALITIES

    On arrival in Mexico, yachts must go to the nearest Port of Entry, with the Q and courtesy flags flying.

    Depending on the port it will likely be one of two processes:

    1. Immigration and Customs Office—your Crew Lists will be stamped and FMMs (Forma Migratoria Multiple) issued for all passengers.
    2. Port Captain’s Office: Pay the clear-in fee. In some ports a port fee paid to the API (Port Administrator) may also be required.
    or

    1. Health inspection – either at the local hospital, or, the Port Captain will ask the doctor to come to his office. This is not always required.
    2. Immigration
    3. Agriculture
    4. Customs
    5. Port Captain (pay clearance and port fees)

    Crew members will not be allowed off their boats until the vessel has been inspected by Immigration.

    Passports must be valid for the length of your stay in Mexico. Some nationalities will be granted a tourist card on arrival (known as an FMM- Forma Migratoria Multiple), others must obtain a visa in advance (see below).

    A new regulation aimed at sport fishing boats but which includes all aquatic-recreational activity states that anyone sailing within 12 miles of the coast of Mexico must be in possession of a visa. Cruisers must obtain a FMM at their first port of entry.

    Cruisers have reported on the Southbound Group that they were boarded in La Paz Bay by the Mexican Navy checking paperwork and ensuring that crew were legally in Mexico. Other cruisers report that on arrival at Isla Mujeres they were granted a tourist card without difficulty.

    See this Official list of countries whose passport holders do not need a visa in advance.


    Note the, "inspected by Immigration." The are very keen to make sure this is done. Do you know why?

    Sort of the same coming this way. And rightfully so. A big friggin reason for the Fence.
