Is human trafficking a crime to stop ? 8 dead in truck at Walmart parking lot. Were they cheap China goods being delivered ?

What kind of trade deals are we involved in. Do we know ? Where was the intel. community ?

Is this a delivery gone wrong ?

Yes, prosecute everyone involved. It isn't the first time it's happened.

Sure it's a crime. And just think, if there was a wall in place all those people would still be alive.

Sad to see even more deaths due to illegal immigration.

I think that they are bringing them over the border in trucks now from South America.. trucks were recently allowed to travel anywhere in the United States over the border.. Nafta was the springboard for illegals to come here.

They opened that trade agreement which Perot wanted to stop... but Bill Clinton pushed it through with bribed votes.

The people were in a reefer, a refrigerated trailer. Apparently the trailer failed to keep cold and they were stuck inside in 100 degree heat.

I don't know if they were locked in or what? Trailers have padlocks and seals on the back when carrying cargo.. they could have locked them in .. we shall find out more. My guess, it was illegals being transported over the border.

Why the heck would anyone want to get into an enclosed trailer.. the driver is in big trouble.

There is no road connection to South America, there is an impassible section of jungle in eastern/southern Panama called the Darien Gap, with no roads due to the terrain

Not a problem that doesn't have solutions. We have thousands of people working on the problems with solutions.

You have several "crimes" with this one, the first being illegal immigration. This isn't the first time this has happened either.

They are lied to, prob tell them just a mile or two. ... human trafficking is not the same as human smuggling. The driver is from Clearwater Fl. There's a huge problem there with HT and young people for sex. They lock them up and abuse them, and threaten their families back home . The culprits coyotes need to be shot .
