*More money isn't going to solve this one*
It seems that the new and current influx of federal crime at the border is
more of the same down there:
Of the 61,529 criminal cases initiated by federal prosecutors last fiscal
year, more than 40%—or 24,746—were filed in court districts neighboring the
Mexican border. This includes Arizona, New Mexico, Southern California,
Western Texas and Southern Texas. The two Texas districts each had more
than double the convictions of all four federal court districts in the
state of New York combined, according to the DOJ report. The Western Texas
District had the nation’s heaviest crime flow, with 6,341 cases filed by
the feds. In Southern Texas 6,130 cases were filed, 4,848 in Southern
California, 3,889 in New Mexico and 3,538 in Arizona.
Not surprisingly, most of the offenses were immigration related. In fact,
38.6% of all federal cases (23,744) filed last year involved immigration,
the DOJ report confirms. Nearly 22% (13,383) were drug related, 19.7%
(12,123) were violent crimes and 10.2% (6,300) involved white-collar
offenses that include a full range of frauds committed by business and
government professionals. This is hardly earth-shattering news in fact, the
nation’s southern border region has for years been known for its high crime
rate compared to the rest of the country. SOURCE - Judicial Watch

*It looks like "Don't Mess With Texas" applies here.*
That was 2013. Just imagine what the numbers are going to look like in
2014 with Obama's official unofficial open door immigration policy that
doesn't really exist.
But really, why are we not hearing about this, especially in the face of
border patrol agents being killed by drug cartel members coming across the
border hidden among the children.
Last spring Judicial Watch reported
<http://www.judicialwatch.org/blog/2013/03/mexican-u-s-media-too-scared-to-cover-border-crime/>that
violence in the region has gotten so out of control that both Mexican and
American journalists have largely stopped reporting it out of fear that
drug cartels will retaliate against them and their families. Around the
same time a small town paper in Reynosa, the twin borer city of McAllen in
south Texas, bravely ran a story
<http://www.brownsvilleherald.com/news/valley/article_8d9dc9f6-8ac3-11e2-97a4-001a4bcf6878.html?mode=story>describing
the fear and panic that filled the streets during a three-hour firefight
between rival drug cartels.
More fingers on the hands of the War on Drugs. And reporters are afraid to
tell us about it because U.S. officials cannot be depended on to defend
them.
Years earlier JW reported
<http://www.judicialwatch.org/blog/2010/08/parts-mexican-border-too-dangerous-patrol/>
that federal agents guarding the U.S.-Mexico border had been ordered to
stay away from the most crime-infested stretches because they’re too
dangerous and patrolling them could result in an international incident of
cross border shooting. This shocking information came from a law
enforcement official in an Arizona county located along the Mexican border.
Uh, isn't that what federal agents are employed to do? And they've been
pulled off the border because it's too dangerous? What genius thought that
was a good idea? Don't answer that.
In one of its last reports before getting axed, the National Drug
Intelligence Center concluded that the “unprecedented levels of violence in
Mexico
<http://www.judicialwatch.org/blog/2011/10/u-s-admits-mexican-cartels-control-parts-of-border/>”
will continue for years. Inevitably the crimes have spread north because
cartels—including Sinaloa, Los Zetas and Juarez—have joined forces with
U.S. street gangs that operate in more than 1,000 cities throughout the
country, the report said. This sort of “collaboration between U.S. gangs
and Mexican-based” criminal organizations will continue to increase,
facilitating wholesale drug trafficking into and within the United States,
the three-year-old report said. It seems that nothing has changed.
According to Wikipedia,
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Drug_Intelligence_Center> the
National Drug Intelligence Center (NDIC) ceased operations in 2012 with its
functions moving to the Drug Enforcement Agency. The NDIC was set up to
compile strategic intelligence on drug gang activity. Not that the War on
Drugs is an overwhelming success, but THIS is the federal agency that gets
the ax?
In the wake of Fast and Furious, that is rather curious.
Given the increase in volume of illegal thugs, I mean aliens coming across
the border THIS year...federal prosecutors are going to break records.
God help us.
