A starling new development reveals South American criminal tourists are on home invasion sprees targeting wealthy neighborhoods across the US, according to Daily Mail.
South American thieves exploit the US’ immigration system for travel as they target multi-million dollar homes in liberal-controlled areas with relaxed criminal justice laws.
Police from around the country report some of these criminal tourists are from Colombia and elsewhere in South America. They have ransacked mansions in California, New York, Virginia, Texas, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina.
Law enforcement experts say these professional burglars exploit a 2014 visa waiver program intended to promote tourism. Called the Electronic System for Travel Authorization, it’s an automated system that determines the eligibility of visitors to travel without obtaining a visa.
Earlier this year, the FBI busted one of these gangs in Virginia who stole an estimated $2 million worth of goods from mansions owned by Asian and Middle Eastern families. Officials said those homes were targeted because they had lots of high-value jewelry and cash.
The thieves chose Virginia because of the state’s lax bail laws and could skip bail and exit the country with the loot. The thieves were also connected to burglaries in Carolinas, Georgia, Texas, and a brazen $1.2 million jewelry heist in Southern California.
Police in Nassau County, New York, arrested criminal tourists from Chile who broke into multi-million dollars homes and stole jewelry and cash.
In the San Francisco suburb of Hillsborough, (Zuckerberg lives here) where a home’s average price is $5.4 million, a group of criminal tourists from Chile and Colombia looted homes in multiple neighborhoods. One of the incidents was caught on cameras as the thieves emptied a house.
Its only fair.....I target them.
Defund the police. Get rid of cash bail. Open up the borders.
No more mean tweets from the White House. It’s all good.
The endgame is extermination of legacy US citizens.
Because there are just some crimes Americans won't do. /S
Why am I not feeling bad about this?
I wonder if Imbert & Smithers has seen an uptick in business.

If you see something do something say nothing
Making America a Chithole country!
I’m safe! Yes!
We live 5 miles off the blacktop on 250 acres where our closest neighbor is 1 mile away. Our county sheriff comes to the local school each year and tells us the same things. If it’s dark and they climb the gate, the SherIff say to fire untitled they are no longer moving .
Thene call the police
If it’s during the day keep the drop on them and sic the dogs on them.
Pikers. The Criminals in the District of Corruption not only stole America but ripped off the Entire World by using the Inflation Tax on anybody unfortunate enough to do trade in dollars.
Florida not on list.
Good news, most very rich Lib. Pay back is a u know what.......
I wonder if they know that there are armed Americans who work from home.
They mention Texas? That’s surprising. Texas allows Harry Homeowner to execute home invaders to protect property. I’d like to know more details.
That's just so sweet.
Our County Sheriff tells people to have a legal weapon available...then add and train with as many as you believe you need.
He’s a good man faced with daily threats to his deputies and the community.
