Warren was arrested in January 2018 by U.S. agents who were staking out a humanitarian aid station in Arizona known as “The Barn,” where two Central American men had been staying for several days.
“What they needed was a place to hide, and that’s what the defendant gave them, and that is an intent to violate the law,”
Michael Bailey, the U.S. attorney for Arizona, said he was disappointed with the verdict, but promised to continue prosecuting people who harbor and smuggle immigrants and those who sneak across the border.
The Border Patrol had been investigating The Barn for months, according to documents released after news outlets sued to obtain them.
The documents show that in April 2017, an anonymous Arizona resident told Border Patrol officials that he suspected members of the group were harboring immigrants in Ajo. About three months later, officials detained members of the group No More Deaths on suspicion of vandalizing a camera at Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge, where they regularly left water jugs.
In November 2017, agents interviewed residents who said they had noticed more traffic and littering outside The Barn.
Agents eventually encountered a man who said he had traveled across the desert with two other men who were picked up by a van.
Suspecting they might be at the No More Deaths building, agents began watching it on Jan. 17, 2018, arresting Warren and the two migrants. The men were deported after providing video testimony.

Underground railroad wannabe.
Damn it, they are NOT immigrants.
Has every effin news outfit sold out to the progressive corruption of the English language?
Why not arrest Julian Castro for escorting illegals across the border?
It would be a shame if it burned down.
That gringo will get decapitated soon enough.
He’ll help the Wrong One some day
lease don’t call illegal aliens immigrants.
Immigrants by definition are those who have been lawfully entered into the US.
This should not have been allowed to go to Jury. Too many people let their emotions make all the decisions. Never mind the logic that this guy is indeed providing illegals with a place to hide from the law. It doesn’t matter if he does not like that law. The newly aquitted sort of looks like Beto.
I can picture him supporting such a venture.
More criminal leftists let go again by the criminal un-justice system.

The article didn’t mention the judges name as far as I could tell. But you can bet he/she/it is probably a Clinton or B.O.appointee.
