Possible case? Surely you jest.

Now we need to know what nationality they are because not all those trafficked across the border are Hispanic. Next we send them home in simple body bags for their government to pick up the bill for and for their country's media to report on.

Or better yet, send them to the bunch that is heading for our border like an invading army. THIS is what you will find when you get here.

Likely each one of those 42 illegal aliens paid hundreds if not thousands of dollars to some cartel "coyote" to be transported over the border.

Something spooked the coyote and he abandoned those people in what was probably a locked trailer.

Time to get super tough on these thug criminals. Maybe we need to classify them as terrorists and let them get military justice.

Unfortunately, this is far from the first time this has happened. I'm thinking rail car in Iowa a few years back. No one deserves to die in such a horrendous way. These people pay someone to bring them across and this is what happens. Even though they are coming in illegally, this is still a horrendous situation. The drug cartel in now the primary coyote being paid to bring people across. And even after being paid, they will hold the people hostage for their family already in the country to pay for their release. All this crap is enough reason to close the border without even getting into the illegal entry itself. Actually, just the drugs coming across is enough to build a wall to stop. Biden has a heck of a lot to answer for and these deaths are just another nail in his coffin.

Don’t let the Piss Ants get you down…
When I was working on telematics, for the (at the time dominant company in that field) we did an RFP for a large grocery chain down there and the questions they asked about trailer tracking made it clear that they were very concerned about one of their trailers coming back from Mexico loaded down with illegals who could get ditched or involved in an accident… and this was 20 years ago. Been happening for a long time.

It is never going to stop, until the ZUSA finds a way, to fund the welfare systems
in Central America.

Pay them to stay in their own countries, and not come here. They are coming
here only for one reason, the welfare bennies that have been created by,
the out of the pits of HELL Communist Demoncraps.

ZUSA goes on the other side of Planet Earth, and destroys nations,
sets them ablaze, and then attempts to nation build, to the tune of
trillions of dollars, when those dollars should be spent in Central America.

ZUSA cannot take in all of the world's poor. There simply are not enough
resources, and eventually if something isnt done, there is going to be war.

I have no sympathy for an illegal alien. They know that they are breaking
ZUSA law by coming here. Perhaps once the news gets back to where they
were coming from, that maybe some will rethink making an illegal trip here.

Please be safe everyone.

Regards to all.

How many die daily in the deserts....back country? I'd bet it's as much or more than this.

And worse, they bother American citizens who are camping or boondocking with their RVs.
There are a lot of remote places where it is no longer safe to solo camp. You need to be in a large group and post guards at night.

I have been solo backpacking many times, mostly in wilderness areas.
No one else around, that I knew of. It has been 15 years at least since I
headed off into a wilderness on my own, for the exact reasons that
Meemur mentioned in her post.

I recall being on the AT back in 2003, and seeing an alert posted
about (2)two women, that had been murdered on the AT in Virginia.

No doubt times are much much worse now, nothing but bad to be
encountered in what was once, one of the most safest from humans.

Please be safe everyone.

Regards to all.

Joe Biden (or reasonable facsimile) has their blood on his hands... his and every globalist POS and every bleeding heart liberal who have enticed these people to come. They use them, and they will throw them away in a heartbeat. Many of US will die at the hands of the most desperate,,but the gated enclaves will be safe... for awhile.

It's time to charge Joe Biden as an accessory to 42 murders.

The AT is also sort of a special case because parts are close to towns where locals like to go to the woods and "party" on weekends. This was happening before the border wall crisis. I imagine it's worse now.

That truck had already made it past the difficult parts which makes this even more horrible. If it was near SA, I would assume it came through (or near) the Encino checkpoint which is 45 miles north of the border. They revamped that one in the last few years and it has lots of bells and whistles.
Once you are past that checkpoint, it would be smooth sailing from there I would assume (although I don't know what could get an 18 wheeler pulled over as I don't have a CDL).
