A Florida man has been charged with human smuggling after four people, one an infant, were found dead in a Manitoba field, near the Canada-U.S. border, on Wednesday.

"What I am about to share is going to be difficult for many people to hear," RCMP Assistant Commissioner Jane MacLatchy said at a news conference in Winnipeg on Thursday. "It is an absolute and heartbreaking tragedy."

The bodies of a man, woman and baby were found together in one area, while the body of a teen boy was found a few metres away, she said.

They are believed to have died from exposure to the freezing weather while attempting to walk across the border from Canada to the United States.

Just before 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday, members of the RCMP integrated border enforcement team were alerted that U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers had apprehended a group that crossed into the U.S. from Canada, near the town of Emerson.

The bodies have been tentatively identified as that family of four, the release from the U.S. Attorney's Office stated. Two of the surviving Indian nationals sustained serious injuries and were transported to a hospital, the release said.

Frozen family was from India. Not high risk for the USA. Terribly terribly sad. Perp needs death penalty. Won’t get it in Canada.

Idiocy! Don’t they or at least the Coyote know the rule of thumb is:

Sneak in from Canada in the Summer
Sneak in from Mexico in the Winter.

But nooo. And the Border counties in Arizona have the bodies to prove it. Every border county and at least 2 non border counties have to lease refrigerator trailers every summer to store the bodies found in the desert.
Well at least the Reefer trailers are not necessary in Frozen Moosejaw County, Canada

The real perp is Joe Biden,,,,,he opened the doors for people to come via his personal invitation and many illegals will do anything to get into the Country. Biden should be indicted because his first order of business as president is to protect the citizens of the USA by controlling immigration..

I think that stripping them down to boxers and turning them loose will suffice in this instance.

walking for 11 hours in -30 weather is inconceivable. An hour is plenty.

Brandon seems more worried about Ukraine’s border than ours.

While I'm tired of illegal aliens sneaking into our country I also can't imagine what it was like when the mother and father realized they couldn't save their child and they began to panic. On a human level it must have been terror.

I'm wondering if the human trafficker left them off near the border so he wouldn't be caught with them and pointed them in the general direction and they got disoriented and lost in the dark, snowy landscape.

"The people found dead on Wednesday would have faced bitter cold, endless fields, large snowdrifts and complete darkness crossing the international border on foot, said RCMP Assistant Commissioner Jane MacLatchy."

Human Smugglers should become Buzzard Chow.
