Federal human trafficking investigation underway at Dundee waterpark hotel

Splash Universe, a waterpark hotel in Dundee, Michigan, is at the center of a human trafficking investigation. That’s according to federal agents with Homeland Security.

The investigation stems from an alleged argument that turned physical between hotel staff and the manager. According to a report from Dundee Police, that manager called an officer to the hotel on Saturday, Sept. 7, 2024, at about 6:50 p.m. He said a female employee threw a phone and hit him in the head.

Once he arrived, the officer said no one among a group of five employees spoke English. So, he called a Michigan State Police officer who translated from Spanish over the phone.

The police report states a 30-year-old woman, " ... told the interpreter that she was an undocumented immigrant who was brought to Splash Universe by the manager with the promise of receiving $90.00 per day for working at the hotel, along with room and board. She said they had worked nine days and had yet to receive payment.”

The officer also wrote a 25-year-old woman “... used Google Translate to tell me that she was pregnant and that she had not eaten in two days. She also told me that the argument had started specifically after they were told that they were only going to be paid $5 per hour, instead of the $90.00 a day they were originally promised. She also told me that the manager had threatened to call ICE if they did not do what he told them to do.”

Dundee Police then contacted Immigration and Customs Enforcement. An ICE agent confirmed the three who had IDs were in the country illegally and told the Dundee Police officer it sounded like the hotel was trafficking immigrants.

Hilarious

This has been the norm in the Southwest for 45 years, thanks to morons in the upper midwest (”Blue Wall”) voting for Rats at the national level who then voted in Congress to keep the border wide open and privilege illegal aliens over Americans.

Now they’re shocked? I guess it’s cuz it finally hit their area.

Welcome to the party, pal. Your jobs, your schools, your government are all gonna be taken over by them. Aprende Espanol ahora.
