Border Patrol Sector Chief Wants To Ensure Minuteman Project Appears To Have Failed
"I recently received an email from a man by the name of Ben Anderson, whom I have on good authority is well connected with sources within the Border Patrol in the Cochise County, AZ, area.
This email detailed a plan by Chief Michael Nicely, of the U.S. Border Patrols Tucson Sector, to make sure that arrests of illegal aliens in the area where the Minuteman Project (MMP) was conducted were kept to a minimum. This apparently in an attempt to make the MMP appear to have been less effective than it actually was."
