Is he the patron saint of all border crossers? The coyotes and drug runners too?

For desert border crossers, it’s more likely to be Santisima Muerte

I was guessing the profane Nuestra Señora de la Santa Muerte, “Saint Death”, aka Señora de las Sombras (”Lady of the Shadows”), Señora Blanca (”White Lady”), Señora Negra (”Black Lady”), Niña Santa (”Holy Girl”), Santa Sebastiana (St. Sebastienne) or Doña Bella Sebastiana (”Our Beautiful Lady Sebastienne”) and La Flaca (”The Skinny Lady”).

In truth, it is just a crude extrapolation from Aztec mythology, of Mictecacihuatl, Queen of Mictlan, the underworld. The land of the dead. In the myth, she began her career as a child sacrifice.

Ironically as all blazes, it is worshiped as the patron saint of the drug cartels, and the LGBT(!)

Worship has been made up of roughly two million to five million adherents, mostly in Mexico State, Guerrero, Veracruz, Tamaulipas, Campeche, Morelos, and Mexico City, with a recent spread to Nuevo León.

It is one of the few heresies that the Catholic church openly and vigorously opposes, though chapels and shrines are increasingly common. They are typically brick buildings with just one to a few high windows, because they are a magnet for bullets.

The serious potential risk is that it could turn from a death worshiping cult to a murderous cult, like the Thuggee in India. All it needs is a charismatic leader, and it could be a nightmare across North and central America.

It has been making some quiet inroads into the Mexican Hispanic communities in the US as well. Do a Google Image Search for “santa muerte merchandise”.

The Catholic church is very correct that this pagan perversion is just pure evil, and a disaster waiting to happen.

Did anyone make Al Capone or Himmler a saint?

I forget if Castro was made a saint?

Caligula?

Was the St. Joseph that the local church was named for Mengele or Stalin?

I believe that the patron saint for MS-13 is Satan.

“....Santo Toribio, the patron saint of border-crossers....”

.
Never, never heard of him.

Is he also the saint of ILLEGAL border crossers?

Then Toribio is not a saint.
