San Antonio police found more than 50 (!!) migrant bodies stacked in a hot semi and the murderers used spices to cover up the smell

Imagine opening a semi trailer and seeing 50 dead people who suffocated in the 103º sun because the suits in Washington don't want to enforce our border laws.

I really can't imagine how horrible it must have been to discover this. Just sit for a moment and realize the sheer, disgusting tragedy.

Dozens of migrants were found dead in an abandoned big rig in San Antonio on Monday in what appears to be the deadliest human smuggling case in modern U.S. history.

The bodies of at least 46 people were initially found in the tractor-trailer in the sweltering Texas heat, officials said. Sixteen others, including four children, were hospitalized, San Antonio Fire Chief Charles Hood said.

On Tuesday morning, Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said the death toll had risen to 50. He said 22 of the dead were Mexican nationals, while seven were from Guatemala and two from Honduras. The nationalities of the remaining 19 people had yet to be confirmed.

Here was the initial press conference from authorities.

These migrants were abandoned by their human traffickers. According to accounts, bodies were found not only in the trailer, but for blocks behind the trailer, indicating that suffocating victims had managed to open the back of the trailer and jump out. Authorities estimate 100 people total were on board.

The dead and dying were left in the sweltering summer sun, children and all, because the traffickers seemingly decided to cut their losses. The only reason any survived is that a nearby worker heard a cry for help.

The grim discovery was made early Monday evening in an undeveloped area of southwest San Antonio near railroad tracks. A person who works in the area reported hearing a cry for help and spotted at least one body, officials said.

...

"We're not supposed to open up a truck and see stacks of bodies in there," Hood said.

You know what's even worse? The traffickers covered the bodies with spices to hide the smell, meaning they took the time to cover their mass murder.

The rig was "cloned," said the owner of a local Alamo-based trucking company to the San Antonio Express-News — painted to match one of his own, right down to copying his legal vehicle's Department of Transportation registration number.

Police took three people into custody, but have not identified them or indicated if they are being arrested over a connection to the murders.

Two of the migrants remain in critical condition at Baptist Medical Center in San Antonio.

I mean it sincerely when I say that the White House's border policy – or lack of it – is directly responsible for incentivizing this human trade and trafficking.
