LAREDO, Texas – U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers at Laredo Port of Entry apprehended a male subject in possession of child pornography.
“Sex-related offenses against children can cause long-lasting adverse effects on the victim’s mental health,” said Port Director Albert Flores, Laredo Port of Entry. “CBP collaborated with pertinent agencies to address the heinous nature of the crime, to ultimately bring the perpetrator to justice.”
On Friday, March 22, CBP officers at Juarez-Lincoln Bridge referred a bus passenger, a male Mexican citizen, for secondary inspection due to a system-generated alert. During secondary examination, CBP officers found the subject in possession of child pornographic material, discovered within his personal belongings. The subject was arrested and Homeland Security Investigations special agents are investigating the case.
