ALAMO, Texas -- Federal agents acting on a tip found 58 illegal immigrants of various nationalities crowded in a single-story residence, U.S. Customs and Border Protection said Friday.
Agents on Thursday found 15 women and 43 men, of which there were 33 Mexicans, 19 Brazilian, three Hondurans, two Salvadorans and one Peruvian.
The illegal immigrants were taken to the agency's Weslaco station pending formal removal back to their home countries.

58 illegal immigrants of various nationalities crowded in a single-story residence Not that an illegal person would care, but isn't crowding people into a house dangerous and illegal?

How many were Muslims?Probably none.
The residents of the listed nations (33 Mexicans, 19 Brazilian, three Hondurans, two Salvadorans and one Peruvian,) would most likely be RC.

Somewhat related; A couple years ago, I decomissioned chemical mfg plant in a farming community. There was a local store where we went to get food, drinks and snacks. Across the street were very old, small clapboard houses full of farm workers. The store owner said that the houses were rented to illegals working in the fields on a weekly basis. Usually about 10 men per small house, each paying $200/month. The owner of the houses was netting about $2,000 per month.
I could probably squeeze 30 renters like that into my house and maybe make $6,000 per month.

And that’s just a drop in the ocean of illegal immigration flooding over this country.

I don't know of the legal aspect, but such crammed quarters can easily spread disease.

And until we build a wall it’s unfortunately just trying to bail out the ocean.

I don’t know of their legality, but a bunch here were recently booted from a house they were living in.
The pipes had burst some time ago, and they were living above a basement that was 3/4 full of sewage.
