Episode Details

Eleven people are now facing life sentences for smuggling migrants into the U.S. in a sealed, sweltering train container that reached 90°F — killing seven, including a 14-year-old boy — after smugglers fled when one person fell out. The victims, from Honduras and Mexico, paid $15K to $100K for the doomed journey from Del Rio to Laredo. Ten suspects are in custody, two remain at large — including U.S. citizens and undocumented immigrants — as authorities probe a deadly smuggling ring that exploits train routes beyond border patrol reach, echoing last year’s 53-person tractor-trailer tragedy.
