A Texas woman has confessed to drugging young girls with melatonin gummies while trafficking them into the US — just as border agents are warning that kids are being smuggled through similar means all across the southern border.
Vanessa Valadez, 23, of Laredo, pleaded guilty Friday to working with family members to smuggle children under the age of 5 into the country from Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, between August and September 2023.
“La noquiamos con unas gomitas,” one of Valdez’s co-conspirators wrote in a message alongside an image of a passed out girl during one operation — which translates to “we knocked her out with some gummies.”
Valdez and her family smuggled at least four young girls into the country, according to Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), picking them up from a stash house across the border and drugging them before using phony birth certificates to try to pass them off as family members.
After Laredo, the girls were taken deeper into the US and left with unknown people for unknown purposes.
Valdez and her conspirators were finally foiled on Sept. 21, 2023, during a routine inspection by border agents.
Three of the girls smuggled into the US remain unidentified, and their locations are unknown, HSI said in a statement.
Valdez’s co-conspirators were Ana Laura Bryand, 47; and her niece Kayla Marie Bryand, 20; Jose Eduardo Bryand, 43; Nancy Guadalupe Bryand, 44; and 32-year-old Lizeth Esmeralda Bryand Arredondo, of Mexico. Each previously pleaded guilty to their parts in the sick conspiracy.

Just doing the drugging and the smuggling that Americans refuse to do. Right, George W. Bush?
Women trafficking Women??? We are broken. Shut it down, power it off and restore it to factory settings.
This is what the Bible means by astorge. Even the Republicans support chemical abortion. Women destroying their own.
This is the end. Nothing worth saving here. I hate it that my grandchildren will live in the New Dark Ages.
Heck, we barely blinked when finding out our Universities are purchasing baby parts from planned parenthood- and the baby must be alive to get the ideal liver.
If it cures cancer, Alzheimers and saves the economy, there are apparently no limits as to the horror we vote for.
Chemical abortion dangers are being covered up by the Big Gov Medical Complex. But hey, men supporting mass abortion are definitely the good guys.
The movie "Sound of Freedom" wasn't fiction and the reason our pedophile elites* wanted it crushed.
*includes Joe Biden and every Demoncrat that favors open borders.
they’ll never cure cancer- there is a lot of $$ to be made off of sick people.
This is almost sick to say, but I almost envy my deceased parents for being deceased. At least they don’t have to see this.
Wow gummies have come a long way. What is next, jujy fruits?
Melatonin?? Really???
Do you know how far back using Melatonin goes 14 years, Daycares were using it and Kindergardens, 1 infant died and a toddler. Then they went and made gummies out of the crap. More OD’s as adults left the tops off or loose, or didn’t secure them, no childproof cap until recently. Many brands still don’t have such tops.
Her family must have gotten behind on their US partner payouts!!
I’m with you. Glad I am on the downward side of life.
How did this world go from a good place to absolute evil???
Ever heard of a “madam”?
You were hit by a car?
I’ll have to stop at the snack bar first.
And popcorn.
What to do with it if captured? Many intriguing possibilities.
I saw *Sound of Freedom*.
As appalling as the child sex trafficking is, the part that’s horrific is the women involved.
No disrespect to men here, but in these cases men are usually the perps and women the victims and women who sacrifice CHILDREN whom they are wired to protect, love, and nourished, is demonic to the core. It is evil beyond belief and whatever awaits them in the afterlife is justly due.
I cannot fathom how a woman can turn young girls over for this kind of abuse.
Sure. You ever take any?
It can really knock you out.
Sounds to me (by parts of the names of those involved) that this ‘family’ had this smuggling ring covered from both sides of the border. In some countries, life doesn’t matter where there is money involved.
Here’s a novel idea, Que-Mala. If you actually rigidly controlled the border, the majority of illegals entering, children being smuggled for illegal purposed, drugs like Fentanyl and a host of other ancillary problems to the US would be diminished significantly.
Wish that were true- doesn’t do anything for me. Sleeping pills on the other hand will knock me out for about 2-3 hours, then wide awake watching the hours tick by
Cbd helps a little, but nothing to write home about.
Time to set them free with fully loaded debit cards, and of course, use the right pronouns!!!!
I’m reading through the comments with tears in my eyes. My stomach hurts and I’m pushing bile down thinking of what evil these babies are about to endure.
Damn every politician to hell who isn’t ten thousand percent working to stop this evil in our country.
