Sealed Trucks Found with Illegals

(Falfurrias, Texas) In two separate incidents last Thursday and Friday, sealed tractor-trailer rigs were found at the Falfurrias checkpoint with illegal aliens inside. Nineteen were in one 18-wheeler and six were in the other. The drivers were held on smuggling charges. It wasn't disclosed what happened to the illegals. Notably, the Falfurrias checkpoint is dozens of miles north of the U.S.-Mexico border.

I think it's safe to assume that these two incidents are barely newsworthy since the authorities intercept human smuggling operations all the time. What is worth mentioning is that nothing currently being considered by Congress will change the flood of people illegally entering the United States.
