Summary
Eleven people are now facing federal charges after seven migrants—including a 14-year-old—died suffocating inside a sealed shipping container on a Texas train. Smugglers loaded them in, sealed the door, and vanished as temperatures soared outside. One died near San Antonio; six more were found dead in Laredo. Each migrant paid $15K–$100K for the deadly ride. The operation, active since April, used Union Pacific rails to evade border patrols. Nine suspects are in custody; two remain at large. Authorities seized cash, guns, and vehicles tied to the ring. Potential life sentences loom. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
