Illegal Immigrants Allowed Into The U.S. By President Biden Cause Horrific Crash Near The Border


The final defendant involved in the fatal crash that claimed the lives of nine undocumented immigrants that were part of a human smuggling ring near the Texas-Mexico border was recently arrested, according to authorities.

Veronica Torres-Mendez, 34, was arrested on Nov. 3 at a home in Austin. Authorities allege she was involved in a smuggling ring that claimed the lives of undocumented immigrants on March 15 near the border city of Del Rio. Torres-Mendez was charged with conspiracy to transport undocumented noncitizens. Authorities said Sebastian Tovar, 25, of Toledo, Ohio, was driving a Dodge Ram when a Texas Department of Public Safety trooper tried to stop him.

When Tovar attempted to flee, he crashed head-on into a vehicle in oncoming traffic, killing eight people in the truck and seriously injuring another, all of whom were not U.S. citizens, authorities said.

Two American citizens were seriously injured in the vehicle Tovar crashed into, according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. Shortly after the accident Border Patrol encountered a Ford F-150 which was stopped in traffic near the scene of the deadly crash. When Border Patrol agents directed the driver to turn around, the occupants inside the truck fled into nearby brush. Agents tracked and apprehended the 12 immigrants who tried to get away.

Authorities were able to determine the drivers and passengers of both the Dodge and Ford trucks were involved in a human smuggling ring that had transported 20 undocumented immigrants illegally into the U.S.

The suspects face sentences ranging from 10 years to life in prison.
