Aliens trade safer than drug smuggling in border rings
Border Patrol deputy chief Dale Swancutt flags rising alien smuggling rings across El Paso and New Mexico. He cites 112,450 arrests this year, estimates five times that through the region, and 72 known rings with a large one in Clovis. He notes pilots use cars or houses as driver incentives and that Chicago and Denver act as pooling hubs for passage with fees from 250 to 1 000 dollars.
