Chilling new details emerged Tuesday in the Texas border horror that left at least 51 migrants dead — including how victims stuffed in the truck were allegedly sprinkled with steak seasoning to mask their odor.

"The truck was 'cloned,' said the owner of a local Alamo-based trucking company to the Express-News — with it painted to match one of his own, right down to copying his legal vehicle’s Department of Transportation registration number.

'Our reefer [refrigerated trailer] is sitting right in the yard,' said Felipe Betancourt Jr., who owns Betancourt Trucking with his father. 'That one in San Antonio is not our trailer.'

While the truck in San Antonio was made to look like a refrigerated truck, 'There was no visible working AC unit on that rig,' said San Antonio Fire Chief Charles Hood.

I saw a story about 46 dead.
Is this the same truck?

Sounds like Hannibal Lecter was expecting a delivery.

Yes. The death toll is up to 51 now.

Yesterday’s news said some that were taken to the hospital were in grave condition and not expected to survive. Looks like it is those that are now dying.

They were also scattered along the roadway as some escaped while the truck was still moving:

“Bodies also were found for blocks around the truck’s location, suggesting that some of the migrants had tried to make their escape while the vehicle was still moving, the San Antonio Express-News said.”

I agree. Along with those who invade our country.

More people died in that truck, and died more horribly, than in a school in Uvalde.

Where is the bipartisan effort at Border Control?

As well as those who bring that poison Fentanyl into our country.

The death of these poor people is on Joe Biden and his insane goading of invaders and illegal alien mobs to breach the United States’ borders. It’s Joe Biden’s personal responsibility and fault. Joe Biden and his illegal junta are intentionally allowing human smugglers to operate in our country.

The lethal policy of open borders and unrestrained illegal alien invasion is unprecedented. As many as 500,000 per month are expected in 2022, approximately 6 million. That is more than the population of every single individual US city except New York City.

Perhaps constituents should mail steak seasoning to their Democrat politicians...it MIGHT cover up the stench if you are upwind of them.

I don’t understand how this is happening when just yesterday the WH confirmed that the border is closed.

If any were able to escape while it was moving that would imply the door was ajar or some other opening was made and it would still be open when it stopped. So how did it get closed again, assuming there were still people trying to get out? How would the driver or accomplice push it closed again with presumably panicked people trying to stream out of there like a herd of cattle? Maybe by holding a gun on them to frighten them to stay? Is it possible the ones found on the roadside were ones who died on the trip and were just pushed out along the way by fellow migrants - or cartel guards- to make more space, rather than being escape attempts, that the exit was always in the control of the smugglers?

I don't know when, but in the not too distant future, I see an America where drug dealers, human smugglers, gang members crossing the border will indeed be shot on sight.

It will be because the Left will have destroyed society so much, and conditions in the USA have declined so badly, Americans will insist on it to maintain public order.
