My students would come back from Christmas break in Mexico telling tales of such.
Heartbreaking that people live like that.
My cousins Mexican wife has a relative who had a business with a bit of property to it; cartel people came one day and said that’s ours now! GTFO. We never should have allowed civil forfeiture to take root and spread here. Rife for corruption. Patriot Act encourages abuses while providing questionable benefits back. And the lawfare we see daily is infuriating.
