They were used as a distraction. They sent them across. The Border Patrol would have to in-process them in accordance with the
Obama policies. While they were doing that, they would tell you
privately, yes, we know there are drugs coming across at other points
in the river down there south of McAllen and southwest of McAllen, but
they knew. We are doing our job. We know they are bound to be bringing
drugs over while they keep us tied up. What a business model. Then the Department of Homeland Security would ship many of those
people to the places that they would have addresses for, and, as I
witnessed myself, there were times when our Border Patrol would say:
well, you certainly didn't come up with all the thousands. And
ultimately they finally admit: no, they are going to let me work some
of that off when I get to the city where I am going. In other words, they would be their drug mules, they would be their
drug salespeople.
