Those 72 "migrants" were on their way here. I'm glad to hear they didn't make it.

This opens up a whole field of questions. Were they in Mexico illegally? What involvement did the cartels have in their immigration into Mexico? Were they executed all at once, or was this a long time process and was this a habitual dumping ground for disobedient client illegals?

I looked for conformation that the investigator had been found dead in other US new sources, but found nothing. You'd think they'd be all over it, but nothing!!!

This I found disturbing:
Interviewed at their home in a remote Andean village by Ecuadorian TV, Lala's family said he had left for the US two months ago after paying $15,000 (£9,000) to a people smuggler to organise the trip.With $15,000 to spend on smugglers, why do they need to come here? How many US citizens have an extra $15,000 to spare?

"I told him not to go, but he went," said one of his seven brothers, Luis Alfredo. His 17-year-old pregnant wife Maria said she had received a call a few weeks ago from Guatemala, indicating all that was well. Seven brothers, no mention of how many sisters, but even seven kids is a lot. This is that third world mentality of have a litter of kids, then complain they can't "feed" them. And his "17-year-old pregnant wife is popping out another one, but this doesn't mention if that is even her first.

The US has to stop being the welfare state for every third world country that wants to suck on our dollars. We are not the world parents.
