This is the second publicized story of immigration raids in my area. They're apparently hitting Baldwin County hard as they raided the Gulf Shores High School construction site and rounded up 36 recently. I wonder if this is going on nation wide? I hope so.

Typical media bull-Obamastuff. Funny how they don’t report on murdered children, raped women, stolen cars. Nope, only some “family” that’s been “devastated”.

The law is being enforced for a change. Some people don’t like being a nation of laws, not men, women and whatever in between.

More info

https://www.wsfa.com/2025/07/15/homeland-security-fbi-seek-auburn-man-part-large-scale-alabama-raid/

The operation focused on apprehending one particular fugitive, Cesar Campos-Reyes, 52, of Auburn.

Authorities say Campos-Reyes, who is believed to be in the country illegally, was indicted by a federal grand jury on four counts of bank fraud, four counts of wire fraud, and one count of money laundering, with the indictment being unsealed Tuesday.

During the raids, law enforcement discovered “distribution amounts” of methamphetamine, cocaine, crack cocaine, pills, upwards of $100,000 cash, over 20 guns, and more than 40 people who are said to be in the United States illegally.

They can make it stop. Hit the trail back home. You are here illegally to vote for Marxists and communist pigs.

I ate at a Mexican restaurant tonight. I was kind of hoping for an ICE raid. I assume if everyone got arrested my dinner would be free.

“ The Robertsdale raid was part of a bigger operation that targeted 14 El Patron restaurants in six counties around the state. The search warrant refers to “harboring of illegal aliens.””

That will probably shut down the chain. They thought they were immune because they weren’t “criminals”. Can I use that next time I get stopped for speeding?

Just an aside, I’m always happy to meet someone from Baldwin County. My mom grew up in Lillian and lived there through WW2. I have many happy memories from the 50s - 70s. Lillian is a metropolis now compared to back then.

From the article: ...federal agents raided the El Patron restaurant.

That's not a restaurant, it's a crime headquarters.

Kudos to you, backpacker_c for uncovering the article (Post 9) with the real story:

Authorities... revealed details on the operation, which involved the execution of 14 federal search warrants targeting a “trans-national organized entity” believed to be conducting drug trafficking, human smuggling, document fraud, and other financial crimes.

The operation focused on apprehending one particular fugitive, Cesar Campos-Reyes, 52, of Auburn... indicted by a federal grand jury on four counts of bank fraud, four counts of wire fraud, and one count of money laundering. During the raids, law enforcement discovered “distribution amounts” of methamphetamine, cocaine, crack cocaine, pills, upwards of $100,000 cash, over 20 guns, and more than 40 people who are said to be in the United States illegally.

What doesn't she understand about the word illegal? As in, illegal alien? I'm so sick and tired of these selfish ass people. Coming here illegally and then thinking they get to stay forever. No country works that way.

“My dad has been at work all my life trying to provide for us, trying to make a better life, and people still think he is a criminal,” said Campos.

I have been hearing that type of tripe from the families of criminals for decades now. I used to feel some sympathy for the family, I don't any more.

Every time they raid a business and find multiple illegals they always try to play the pity angle, every time….

This company, and ones like it, who are found to be hiring multiple illegals need to be punished themselves. Hiring illegals is a violation of the law.

There is a lot more to this story:

As part of the operation, acting U.S. Attorney Kevin P. Davidson said authorities seized distribution level qualities of methamphetamine, powder cocaine, crack and pills, as well as $100,000 in bulk cash, and 20 guns.

The drugs were found at one location, which authorities did not name.

Three other unnamed individuals were arrested.

Two will be charged with harboring undocumented immigrants and another in connection with controlled substances distribution.

“This is allegedly a transnational organized entity that has committed this activity, and this operation is not about any one offense,” Special Agent Steven Schrank with U.S. Homeland Security Investigations said.…
