Border agent accused of being a cartel member was arrested after wife's lifestyle raised major red flags

LINK

Lavish trips to Dubai and designer clothing for a federal border agent's wife were allegedly funded by his suspected membership of a Mexican drug cartel, sources told DailyMail.com.




Prosecutors allege Manuel Perez Jr., an agent with US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) in El Paso, Texas, had been bankrolled to the tune of $300,000 to $400,000 a year by 'La Linea,' the armed wing of the Juarez drug cartel, El Paso Times reported.

In stunning court testimony, Perez was accused of getting paid to let illegal immigrants and drugs into the US, but also of being a member of the cartel that was paying him, federal prosecutors alleged during a hearing last week.

The cartels have been working on infiltrating law enforcement: state, local and federal; as well as our military.'


I hope they throw the book at him and he never sees the light of day again. Or perhaps his cartel employers will 'take care' of him.

Skin him alive and dump him in Sheinbaum's front yard.

Sounds like he should become a Ukrainian freedom fighter.

With the additional money, Perez and his wife lived like a drug lord, his co-workers had noticed after seeing extravagant internet posts made by Perez's wife.

Perez's wife deleted her social media accounts after her husband was taken into custody.

The lifestyle presented in her posts appeared to be beyond what a CBP officer making $100,000-$200,000 on a government salary could afford


Don't instagram your crimes.

Any and all La Linea buildings should be wiped out by tomorrow. Any known members disappeared only. Any accounts attacked.
Send a damn message.

HE'S NOT A BORDER PATROL AGENT. He's customs. Different uniform, different mission, different everything. I hate when the media fricks this up. I was a Border Patrol agent for ten years and they got this wrong constantly.

How do you guys think these cartels are armed to the teeth with weapons from the USA? They obviously have guys helping them on our side.

Known this for a while. A couple Hispanic roofers here in Alabama I've dealt with in the past have said the same thing. Border control agents are on the take.
