I saw threads here last month about these Guardsmen being charged, but now they have been indicted.

I am absolutely disgusted. This amounts to treason in my book.

This is dual loyalty profiteering& alien smuggling in the National Guard, not the Border Patrol. The Border Patrol record is very good as far as I know. With the BP it’s Washington DC that is the problem

Similar acts landed a whole bunch of uniformed personnel in prison last year in the Tucson/Phoenix areas - Air Force, Guard, BP, Customs, IIRC.

The contraband in that case was drugs.

Some will do even worse for a federal judgeship.

Like Traitor Sutton.
