News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

Border Patrol Arrests Wanted Honduran Subject in Mississippi

Tuesday, January 22, 2008

Vicksburg, Miss. — Border Patrol agents assigned to the New Orleans sector arrested an individual with an outstanding warrant for arrest stemming from narcotics charges out of Denver.

The arrest occurred Sunday when agents were conducting smuggling interdiction operations on Highway 61 near Vicksburg. The agents observed a white high-capacity passenger van commonly used as smuggling vehicles. The agents performed a vehicle stop and questioned the occupants on their immigration status. All eight occupants admitted to entering the United States illegally.

During processing, all the subject’s fingerprints were submitted into the Integrated Automated Fingerprint Identification System. Record checks identified one subject to be Jairo Acosta Miranda, a 24-year-old citizen of Honduras with an outstanding warrant of arrest for dangerous drugs out of Denver.

Jairo Acosta Miranda is being held by local authorities and will be turned over to the Denver Colorado Police Department for prosecution.
