I don't know what they do with the OTM's here ---- I think they actually risk being deported.

Well, this article clearly states mexico won't take any OTM's back across their border.

Con. Orteiz started complaining about OTM's last year when they caught woman @ the airport. I saw the congressman speaking, on the TX news channel, up here on the issue.

"Here" is real close to the border though --- and it's very easy for them to come back

Yes, I knew that........anybody know how many chances the mexicans get to sneak in ?? Article yesterday said they had caught one 9 times in 3 years......still no jail time yet.

One thing that is interesting --- the Mexican government has it's army all over the border (while the open borders types exclaim we can't militarize the border). They do look for the OTM's --- and the OTM's do not want to be caught by the Mexican army --- apparently they are not treated very well -- so they will often get to the Chiapas/Oaxaca area and buy fake Mexican documents. They make the mistake of buying only the birth certificate and maybe a Mexican drivers license which can get them caught because there's one more important document that Mexicans carry that they don't always know about.

I guess they have it made if they make it through Mexico -- they have to pose as Mexicans in order to through there, but then they can revert to being what they are and not be sent back.
