Five people charged after authorities find 97 migrants in Houston home

Five people have been arrested and charged with federal crimes in connection to a stash house in Houston where more than 90 migrants were found on Friday.
According to the Houston Chronicle, a criminal complaint alleges that the five illegally harbored, concealed and shielded immigrants in the country for private financial gain.
The five individuals are Marina García-Díaz, 22; Henry Licona-Larios, 31; Kevin Licona-López, 25, Santa Barbara; Marco Baca-Pérez 30; and Marcelo García-Palacios, 21. They hail from Central American countries and Mexico.
The investigation was started after a woman contacted authorities on Friday saying her brother had been kidnapped, the Chronicle reports. The caller reportedly told authorities she had paid smugglers $11,000 in February to bring her brother into the U.S. from Honduras. She was then instructed by the smugglers to bring an additional $6,300 to Houston in exchange for her brother’s release or he would be killed.
The woman recorded the phone call and gave the recording and smuggler's phone number to authorities, who obtained an emergency geolocation order and tracked down the location of the smugglers. LINK

The house where the people were kept was in a very nice neighborhood. Manicured lawn with no indication of crimes in progress.

There's a house on 74 in Gonzales that probably has 50 migrants living in it.
