Summary
54-year-old Mexican national, Ricardo Guadalupe Dominguez, sentenced to 42 months in prison for leading alien smuggling operations via cross-border tunnels and storm drains. He supplied vehicles and tools, and was involved in building a man-made tunnel. Dominguez was caught trying to cross at the Paso Del Norte Port of Entry and pleaded guilty to conspiracy to bring in aliens. His co-defendant, Oscar Ivan Carrillo, received 33 months for the same tunnel conspiracy. ICE and Border Patrol investigated, exposing the operation and highlighting the futility of such sneaky routes. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
