The Department of Justice has announced the indictment of a woman from Michigan who was allegedly smuggling illegal aliens across the northern border, including children.<\/p>\n

This was not something the suspect was even doing out of a sense of thinking that she was helping people, she was doing it for profit.<\/p>\n

Anyone who thinks that human trafficking is the sort of thing you only see in movies is mistaken. This is going on in our country all the time.<\/p>\n

Michigan Woman Indicted for Smuggling Aliens, Including Children, Across the Northern Border<\/strong><\/p>\n

A Michigan woman has been indicted for her role in an international alien smuggling conspiracy which brought aliens, including children, from Central America into the United States across the northern border.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis DOJ is investigating and prosecuting human smuggling more aggressively than ever before, and Joint Task Force Alpha is the tip of the spear,\u201d said Attorney General Pamela Bondi. \u201cWe will not rest until those who profit from the suffering of vulnerable people \u2014 including many unaccompanied children \u2014 face severe, comprehensive justice.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe defendant is charged with conspiring to smuggle families, including young children, across our northern border for profit,\u201d said Acting Assistant Attorney General Matthew R. Galeotti of the Justice Department\u2019s Criminal Division. \u201cSmuggling organizations threaten the security of our borders and undermines public safety. The Criminal Division is committed to working with our law enforcement partners to disrupt smuggling networks wherever they operate and bring their members to justice.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThose who promote and profit from smuggling migrants into the country take advantage of vulnerable individuals without regard for the safety of others,\u201d said Acting U.S. Attorney Michael P. Drescher for the District of Vermont. \u201cThe prosecution of Ms. Lozano should send a message that those who commit these offenses will be investigated and held responsible, not only for their own criminal acts but also for facilitating illegal border crossings by others.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

More from Townhall:<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

From February through November 2024, Lozano allegedly smuggled illegal aliens from Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico, and El Salvador, including children, illegally into the United States from Canada. The group instructed the aliens to cross the border on foot, provided GPS coordinates and a description of Lozano\u2019s vehicle, and coordinated their pick-up once inside the United States\u2026<\/p>\n

Lozano allegedly drove from Michigan to Vermont to meet the aliens at prearranged locations near the border. She then transported the aliens further into the United States, delivering them to residences, businesses, or airports. The aliens or their family members allegedly paid Lozano for smuggling services.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Arresting and prosecuting people for this type of activity sends a very clear message and warning to others who might try to do the same.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not going to be tolerated anymore.<\/p>\n
