McALLEN, Texas—Illegal border-crossers are coming into the United States wearing wristbands that relate to the smuggling organization or cartel that they paid to cross the river, according to new reports and confirmation by Border Patrol agents.
The wristbands have been spotted on illegal immigrants in the Rio Grande Valley in south Texas, as well as discarded on the ground beyond the river. Some illegal aliens were found wearing two different colored wristbands.
The system “basically outlines a process that the smugglers are using to know who paid, who didn’t, so that they can start moving them through—because they’ve got so many people backing up,” according to Jaeson Jones, a former captain in the Texas Department of Public Safety.
The wristbands have numbers, words, and logos on them. “We’ve seen turtles, we’ve seen devil heads and little snakes,” Jones told The Epoch Times. The Gulf Cartel (CDG) is using the word “metal” to signify a certain leader on the Mexico side, he said.
A cinder block wall directly across the Rio Grande from Roma, Texas, has “CDG” and “Metal” tagged on it. It’s in the Mexican city called Miguel Alemán, which is the frontline in a territorial battle between the CDG and the Cartel Del Noreste, a faction of the Los Zetas cartel.
The Epoch Times found five different colored wristbands abandoned near Penitas, a popular area for Border Patrol pickup about two miles beyond the river.
One had “Entrega” written on it, which means “Delivery”; another had “Llegadas,” which means “Arrivals”; and another “Dorado,” which means “Golden.”
The numbers on the wristbands relate to the “peso” or tax that the individual paid to the cartel to cross. Each also has a personalized identification number imprinted on it, Jones said.

At least as sophisticated anything we have going on the border.
There’s only one way to defeat the Cartel and America will never do it so...
The Dem Party will use the info from these bracelets to enforce their cut on the cartels.
I hope the cartels aren’t foolish enough to try to cheat the Dem Party of it’s cut LOL!
“Nice deal your cartel has here, be a shame if anything happened to it...”
Protection rackets have to be paid for.
Is anyone thinking of using Spanish radio and television to warn potential “migrants” to not come here? You are not welcome and you are going on a dangerous journey. Show them interviews with some migrants with bad experiences such as drowning crossing rivers, disappearances, rape, murder.
Biden of course would never do this but citizens could get together raise some money and put these adds on Spanish media in Honduras, El Salvador, Mexico.
Doesn’t it make one feel good that the narco terrorists South of the border have more technology and a more organized system to smuggle people across the border?
Does the "Big Guy" still get his 20%?
Biden should be impeached for not enforcing immigration laws he swore to uphold.
Biden mentioned wristbands in his presser, that the system was using the phone numbers on the wristbands.
Why wouldn't they come? I would. Even now. Except crackers don't get squat. Just wetbacks.
Once the gun bans are in place, the cartels will have a new line of business. Smuggling firearms across.

In the hundreds of postings here in Free Republic rarely is this brought up. It’s Known As Reciprocity. We should be treating anybody illegally crossing the Mexican border into the US the way the Mexican’s do to any American illegally .crossing into Mexico. No” free” lawyer is paid by Mexican taxpayers. Entry denied heavy fine and possible imprisonment. before getting kicked out.
When allowing the hordes illegally entering the US through the Mexican border avoids recognizing and dealing with the 2nd class treatment that American citizens get which is in their constitition while legally residing in Mexico.That not just include denial of voting privileges but employment, and land ownership in their name.
Worse yet All when given to illegals and property ownership by them is used in states which Mexico has previously claimed espcially Arizona, Utah, New Mexico, Colorado and of course California .That could be used to support any reclaiming effort should regime changes in Mexico arise . Our border with Mexico has always been contentious not only with smugglers but on ocassion with Mexican bandits and military.,Allowing potential hostiles to the US property ownership to happen in those states could lead to serious problems in the future.
.It’s time we consider illegal entry by any person who is a non Mexican citizen illegally entering the United States through the US Mexican border a defacto Mexican citizen with limited Mexican constitutional rights subject to their laws while transiting. As well as any Mexican citizen entering illegally exempting those who do so legally and meet US citizenship requirements.
What never gets mentioned is that 2nd class treatment Americans get in Mexico in all of this. If we applied that reciprocal policy . Would that continue ? By.prohibiting and strictly enforcing existing laws prohibiting any illegal entrant employment, voting, and land ownership privileges fully enforced these problems would drop loke a rock. .In other words Once we remove the incentives to Sneak into this country before expulsion no job no voting no landowning this stuff would stop.
“What never gets mentioned is that 2nd class treatment Americans get in Mexico in all of this. If we applied that reciprocal policy . Would that continue ? “
At $6000 per person with 3000 crossings in a 24 hour period, cartels are making approximately 18 million a day.

Any with “999”? /just kiddding
See ya at the bill signing. /W
We should CUT THOSE WRISTBANDS OFF!! Give them OTHER wristbands if that’s what they need.
I saw them on ABC’s visit to the border.
They ALSO had a phone number written in their hat or in their pocket.

General Pershing, call your office.
