They said "her behavior was horrible" like she came in and screamed, trashed, and flipped tables instead of silently crying
Exactly... was she supposed to be happy and can't wait to be searched?
no she was not replying when bieng asked questions. If you can't answer a question then you get body searched. Quite simple.
Quite simple they probably send a few through that fit all descriptions of being suspicious to keep busy checking them while the body carriers go through.. the woman really said she doesn’t remember why she went to mexico? pretty obvious she was faking being suspicious and I bet it works pretty good
@@yettimannettii2039 probably hard to hear the agent with the braces and her npc mask on behind a glass
@@yettimannettii2039 it's probably cut that way to make her seem quiet for television.
That girl who was giving a hard time to be searched was the bait lol. She made the cover for the actual mule to get by since she had a lot of officers busy with her. Smart move lol
Exactly my thought!!!
the mule is friends with the police xD
Lol we use to do the same thing in prison. Had someone with an obvious bulge in their pocket or sock with something like an apple. While the guy directly behind him had the real package just walked right by.
That girl performed GOOD! She's a good actress!! She made that scene and kept them BUSY while the big load was passing through 😂😂😂😂 and I won't be surprised if the female CBP officer was part part of the whole thing
Don't be surprised if the CBP female officer was part act lol

@@kidpresentable5523the blue haired one could get it
I absolutely love it when you guys catch drug smugglers, but NOT EVERYONE IS A DRUG SMUGGLER
But they have to be probing and grill people to catch smugglers
Drug smuggling is incited by the CIA. It's historically factual and continues to this day.
You need to suspect every person just to find the bad guy. That's how it works.
I thought everyone was a drug smuggler. You learn something new every day.
They don't have a secret ability to see who is one and who isn't. Are you incapable of knowing that?
"Her behaviour was horrible"
Looks like the poor girl was petrified to me...
relieved to have that removed
If you have nothing to hide, then you have nothing to fear. Anxiety and feeling nervous is natural for some people in that situation but if you have done nothing wrong nothing bad is going to happen to you and the check will be over soon and you can go on your way. If you suffer bad anxiety issues just tell them. Most likely they can tell they're used to seeing that everyday.
@@paullangton-rogers2390 Over soon?! I take it that this has never happened to you, or that you are employed by a border force or law enforcement agency of some sort?
@@looneybinjim if you comply and don’t have anything they literally let you go. I’ve been stopped. I didn’t have anything to hide I even told them I’ll strip for the right amount of money lol
Yeah they getting rid of me searched buy some people they don’t even know being towed the bed and squat

Have much interaction to know?
@@catherineskisLol you try going thru there and watch I bet they’ll search you too for no reason
Doubtful he has ever crossed the border.
@@Xremate It's been a long time
Yep, maybe people just don't LIKE being questioned, having their things pawed through and then being groped all over their body by people they don't know ? 🤔 Who knew ? 🙄🤦♀️
The girl that cried & was clean* I think she just didnt want to be touched/looked at. Some people just can't help feeling anxious of strangers, in power or no, touch them/see them un clothed.
Those who have been sexually abused and/or endured physical abuse, such as beatings, in a past or current relationship may deal with PTSD and struggle to contain a panic attack. I fit both categories and have to sometimes educate medical professionals when it comes to touching me so I can understand how customs can become a nightmare. It is so important that we quietly and calmly educate a person so a search, or medical procedure, can be handled in a way that works with us, the person who has valid reasons to not want to be touched.
@@padebro2683 it’s so sad i just hope they really tried to make her comfortable u know.
Look at the bigger picture of what is trying to be achieved.
Its illegal to have a jacket on to cover up in America. Poor kid started crying. Pos cop was dying to find something on her.
@@jackiebryant5808 the dismantlement of freedoms and self autonomy.?? Disgusting filth
If a cop is getting upset because someone doesn't have drugs then they do not need to be a cop anymore. They are way too emotionally involved and is a huge conflict of interest.
Yeah and not to mention a lot of them w their power trips

@@mrknotthall uh, what?
@@pwndepot367 was I talking to you?
@@mrknotthall my mom always said that…
How the customs agents probe the food (honey & sugar) for consumption with no regard for sanitation or contamination is just disgusting 🥶
And best believe whomever receives the honey isn't going to throw it out. It's way to expensive to loose a 50gallon barrel. 8 oz of honey is 8-15$
This is crazy bro just touched the persons food
Of course drugs would be stashed deep inside not by front door, so inspection was kinda pointless 😂 but I know nothing about it.
I was thinking the same thing!
Facts!
The techniques for searching the storage containers was extremely remedial
So was the editing for this episode.
So were the "Agents".
These policemen get very mad if they didn't find anything on you and they think they are detectives but they have a lot to learn about human behavior.
lol right? the one with the lady irked me a lot. “she was saying i don’t have anything, why are you doing this, and crying” like she told the truth and some people cry when they’re anxious 😭 they try too hard tryna catch ppl
These are DHS agents. Policing isn't about emotions like you people think. Nothing wrong with enjoying your job, and you can't believe everyone who's crying or putting on an act. You guys seem to put policing on the same standard as movies
They watched the 1 hour video in training, that was half of their training so they definitely know human behavior and body language
Yes. They get mad, not at the potential suspect, but mad at the fact that they just wasted their time and likely missed real targets. It’s not the job of the police to be super friendly and nice. If they want to be friendly, then that’s totally fine, but they don’t have any obligation to be all lovey duvy and cuddly toward anyone.
Acts like it’s unfortunate when they let someone go who doesn’t have drugs. “We’ve done all we can do to violate these people”
Don't be born skinny with a high metabolism. You'll look like...🥴 Sad for them.
You are CORRECT SIR.
Glad to see an intelligent observation/comment.
🤣😂
They really want to find something so they could high 5 each other in the break room.
Yea I caught on to that immediately as well. Our police and security forces need to remember they are here to serve and protect. It’s like “let’s check to see if you’re safe, so let me run you for warrants.”
They act like people should be happy to be searched.. a innocent person could also not want to be searched and not want to be harrassed. Mind boggling yhe things they come up with as reasons to search people.
Look at our government, it's all bad everywhere! To many jobs around these drugs, while these two are talked to 10 others have carried stuff across I bet.. 😔🙃😔
She’s wearing yoga pants. How much heroin could she be packing? Suspicious cops should not equal probable cause.
They were negative but they did seem sus when they visited for 1.5 hrs with no baby to c daddy. From Arizona and Ohio..just strange not illegal.
@@kevnotty4573 drugs wouldn't be here if they didn't let them in. I learned that young. ...someone explained it to me. They are crooked this is on them.
Yes ma'am ... To many counselors and probation officers employees by use of drugs
them getting obviously nettled when someone they search ends up being innocent is just disgusting
They don’t really know what they’re doing. That’s painfully obvious.
I totally totally agree with you, it’s like being harassed, these officers are getting away with wasting our time when they fine nothing but negative. Something here must be stopped..
he really said "all you can do then is let them go" as if he would do something else if he was allowed to
@@doreen0 Really. It’s hard to tell what the message here is. Is the point of this documentary to show how inept and pointless the current interdiction program is? Because it sure seems like that’s the case.
@@xenostim seriously, cant accept the fact that he was wrong and had to make it seem like "guess they got away with it THIS TIME" instead of owning up to his mistake on camera
This video is so disturbing for a few reasons:
1. they get a search warrant for a house simply from an address on an envelope (who would use their own address?)
2. They drip honey all over attracting insects.
3. They probe food with sticks.
4. One officer looks at the open honey container like he had no means to actually seal it back up.
5. They use a knife to sample the powder (presumably could be contaminated from previous test)
6. They find out people are not carrying anything and still act like they are guilty ("That's all we can do", and shrugs).
Yea I agree the way they do things is wrong
Yes some methodology and attitude adjustment would be good and maybe a sniffer dog would confirm very quickly even internal concealments, rather than a judgemental hunch.
We think alike. I wonder if they notified the honey receiver that they had contaminated the barrel.
7. none of those things were "disturbing"
Yes, they were all disturbing.
I like how cops always weigh stuff in their packaging to hit you with a harder sentence.
The courts will send it to a lab for official analysis.
what else they suppose to do? Handle and transfer the drugs loose without packaging? DUHHHH!!!!
@@yettimannettii2039 dump it into cup on the scale when it’s zeroed and dump it back in when done. No handling required DUUUUUHHHH
There's another video of this same officer getting arrested on my channel.. 🤬
🤣🤣🤣 Right G? 🤣🤣
So at around 6:10 is that guy really using the same knife he used to open thousands of packages, with tape sticking on the blade, to take a sample?
These people are SO sloppy 😭😭😭😭
No kidding! No concept of cross contamination. He needs to use a clean implement.
Absolute simpletons
Fascinating that most of the people they assume are guilty actually have done nothing at the end of the day. I worked for a business that had their container of cheese held by customs long enough to ruin the entire container of cheese for no good reason. How many other businesses suffer huge loses or just general damage to their goods with no compensation with invasive searches without cause?
Drugs are not that harmful. People need better education and mental health care rather than these idiots wasting the time of everyone
Can you claim on insurance?
Their methods of searching the containers were old fashioned, outmoded and ridiculous. The equipment even looked decades old.
@@JazzFunkNobby1964 No and learned that the hard way. Fortunately only lost $200 worth of mail order model kits in the process. Parcel insurance is null and void if customs damages contents. No explanation from customs on why the kits were pillaged but I suspect the photo etched parts probably raised a few red flags as they likely show up as dense objects when X rayed.
While the real drug dealers get over!
Are you kidding me?? They stuck a foreign metal object into a barrel of honey, they just contaminated a company's product? They should go to jail or get a fine like the rest of us!
“Sounds hollow” meanwhile barrel is completely full of honey . 🙄
"Rules for Thee, Not for me" - US Governement
To me,it was a useless and unprofessional check... The drug could be in any of the barrels inside the container,why check only 1😂😂
And then they’re going to leave the top opened??
Yeah, I thought that whole episode with the honey was bs! Contaminate the product, then leave the top open! These guys are clowns!
Saying no to a pat down is suspicious... Being nervous is suspicious.... Pretty sure those are normal reactions for people who are experiencing something for the first few times. Then when they find nothing they seem upset that they have to let them go because they were innocent.
Exactly
200,000 dead US people in 2 years from Fentanyl. Kinda serious.
@@leomarkaable1 480,000 dead US people annually from Cigarettes kinda serious.
@@Azsunes are they looking for cigarettes?
@@steveanton763 Depends if they are smuggling them, there is a limit to the number you can bring in. Also the comment I was memeing on looks to have been deleted.
It’s pretty obvious the agents working that room are the least professional of the bunch. There are some pretty good reasons why a women wouldn’t want someone touching her body.
Exactly right, why are they suspicious when people don't like being asked intrusive questions by strangers, are nervous because it's obvious those people BELIEVE you're already guilty, and don't like strangers going through your stuff and groping your body ??
If they've worked there so long they've forgotten that, maybe they need a new job or a vacation, preferably somewhere THEY get stopped, searched and suspected of having committed a crime for no reason other than it's someone's "job" to find guilty people. It's one thing to look for drugs, and something very different to look for guilty people, then TRY to find the crime you believe they committed. It's disgusting. 🙄🤦♀️
She might of had mental health issues , been touched inappropriately before you just never know someone’s story. I wouldn’t say her behaviour was horrible. Even I get nervous at customs they can be very intimidating and get off on being a powertrip

@@metalmamasue3680Never travel to Israel then.
Yeah I’ve had to be felt up by TSA before and it was embarrassing
I'm actually more impressed that the dog alerted to INTERNALLY concealed pills! Wow😂
Dogs can smell one stone different from the others on an entier football field, that's how strong their smell is. Most likely there where leftover drugs on the hands, cloths etc that made the dog give the signal. However, yes it's impressive.
yes the problem with dogs and their weakness is not their sense of smell but rather the fact they are dogs and have complex not fully understood relationships with their trainers that bias results but also a dogs instincts like smelling other dogs or animal urine will interfere with results. Also chemicals that overwhelm and disable the olfactory sense like bleach lidocaine or cocaine. Also high frequencies will interfere with the result.
Dogsters be amazing! They can *smell* cancerous cells!!
Most of the time the K9 officer "makes" the dog alert so they can continue search- Im not saying this out of paranoia- it's a WELL KNOWN fact. It's hard to say if the dog indicated off scent or off the K9 officers instructions
@@DetroitFettyghost Thinking of that, there should be logs of each dog so in court that can be an issue to be discussed the confirmed positive vs. confirmed negative dog alerts. At a certain point of negative alerts, the dog may need to 'find a different job'.
The mexican patrol agent with braces seems like she was bullied at schoo and likes to just now take it out on ppl she laughs saying I really thought she had something
barely spoke spanish well and then has the audacity to suspect a girl when she doesn't answer right away
The haughty and arrogant attitude of some officers when they question you makes many innocent people nervous.
don't bring anything across that is illegal and fill out your papers correctly and you wont have anything to worry about. Quite simple.

8:15 this guy is dangerous. Listen to what he is saying. They have nothing and he only lets them go because there is nothing more he can do.
right!!! oh but hes safe guarding america/11111/ hes probably thinks hes actually saving lives. he looks really dense. i caught that too, he loves his power. guilty until innocent. still after violating those two ladies he says, oh we just couldnt do more to find it. not oh they were clean and i was wrong. he is never wrong.
Glad I’m not the only one who was thinking this. He’s obviously just desperate for authority
creep is just mad cause they dont let him do cavity searches on whoever he wants
Well what can you do ? You can only search so much and then in the end they’ll find nothing and waste hours
“They have nothing” so there’s no further reason to search or detain them
16:45 I don’t understand how they placed a probe in the honey jar. Is the probe food safe and contained in a food safe location? Improper handling during transportation of food is illegal and could be dangerous.
It's a felony to tamper with food. That honey is easily 50 gallons about 5000 plus retail dollars. They made a mess and stuck a Contaminated object into it. I have so many questions.
The food waste issue is alarming.
That was what I was thinking too.
Do they even clean that probe stick? It’s not only the honey, the sugar/ flour and all those food that they stick that probe into.
These officers have no respect at all for the goods they’re checking.
Don’t even bother to put on a clean gloves to check the tea leaves and all the other food they put their hands into.
This is really sad because I expected a developed country should be more vigilant in their hygiene.
Apparently, that is so not tue!
Now I’m worried for products packed in US (harvest/ manufactured overseas) now because those companies most probably buy in bulk and pack it in their US factory which means there’s a chance that probe has poked or dirty gloves touching into the bulk packaging.
This is not even considering all the cross contamination.
Well now I will think twice before I buy honey again. I seriously doubt that probe was clean before he stuck it inside the drum. 🤢🤢🤢
This is raw bulk honey and will be processed at the factory before being bottled for retail. Honey does have an antimicrobial capability that keeps it from being contaminated. What is concerning to me is how they tear things up (opening the barrels) and fail too reseal them. That is the lack of respect for other people's property that has been mentioned by others on this thread.
Is it possible that the girl started crying because she felt degraded, discriminated against, and embarressed 🤔. Watching them be so cold and Listening to them be so disappointed that they couldn't arrest someone was disgusting.
Hiii
this comment makes no sense.
@@bbbb-md5ft How does it not make sense? She was clearly upset and she wasnt upset because she was guilty of anything so is it not possible that she was upset because she was intimidated and embarrassed and didn't want strangers touching her? Maybe she had a really bad day and that's why she was upset but this couldn't help. She was pretty young. I'd guess 21 at the most. My daughter is 19 I am not sure how well she would handle this experience if I wasn't with her.
She was asked “what are you doing in Mexico” and she literally said “I don’t know.”

She said she couldn’t remember what she was doing in Mexico for the hours she was there and I thought she was crying about a pat down because she was either SA’d or just self conscious.
She was disrespectful to the officer. After that experience she'll be more courteous when crossing international borders.

The look of disappointment on agents faces when passengers don’t have drugs is a clear indicator of their guilty until proven innocent mentality. This is not to say that smuggling doesn’t happen, but there’s no reason to assume that everyone is a drug mule or a trafficker, as evidenced by the low amount of seizures, even in a show like this that got to pick the best footage.
go back to your trolling on reddit or something kiddo
Waste of time.
Exactly! Poor reaction to the fact that they didn't find anything illegal.
Also the way they assume if someone is nervous they're like yeah they got drugs not oh were a scary agency that can arrest them and were making this persons day way more stressful maybe that's why their nervous. Also the job they do is totally pointless they stop less then a percent of the drug trade and only make it more dangerous and violent.
Oath breaking tyrants who violate people's rights for a living while being paid by the tax payer
I'm not sure if the intent of this documentary is to show the ineffectiveness of interdiction efforts, but it certainly seems effective. You can see the thwarted frustration in the border patrol agents when they go after people who we're not carrying anything illegal.
Cause they are a bunch of Joe Biden loving gun banning clowns.
I know, they seem so suspicious of people who don't like being asked personal questions, having their day interrupted, their stuff pawed through and then their bodies groped by people they don't know ? Who knew ? 🙄🤦♀️
Yeah, this was...enlightening to watch, but not in the way I'd expected it to be.
If you are clean you are clean. Let them search and move on. Period.

These episodes seem to follow the same pattern: these people look suspicious, turns out they're not. Next, we may have a solid lead, ok not so much but we're working hard, and then end it with a bust or 2.
So now that honey is ruined? Do they still sell checked goods like that? I hope not.
@NINJA THEORY that lid and container was trashed. Products a right off
They probably throw all the opened food and products away , the officer said don't eat "that" honey , which he means that by the time it reaches its destination , it will be not suitable to consume.

its amazing how many places in America your rights are void and even more so when people get upset about it, when did it become suspicious to stand up for your rights. this is not a good road to go down
Welcome to modern America. They are taking away more and more rights away to battle the drug epidemic. I say legalize all of it and tax it into oblivion.
every person crossing the border is subject to search idk what "rights" you are referring to but your average traffic stop rights do not apply when crossing the border
@@jimmessi your "average traffic stop rights" may not apply, but your Fourth Amendment rights as guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution -- you know, your rights against unreasonable search and seizure -- ALWAYS apply wherever you are subject to U.S. laws. And those rights have been around a lot longer than police traffic stop laws -- a lot longer than traffic police, period.
my friend we are already far down that road, it's been this way for ages lol
I don't understand your argument or mentality. Are you saying border security shouldn't have the legal power to detain and check individuals entering the US, whether they're legal citizens or not?? That's just crazy. They have a job to do and it's an important one to protect the security of everyone else in the US and the country itself. You have no idea what people could be trying to smuggle in, and everyone is a potential smuggler..certain things get their attention. Once you cross international borders you put yourself in that situation where you could be checked over, anyone potentially has to go through it if they suspect something is off or just on random checks which are routine by Customs. It's not pleasant sometimes and maybe embarassing to some people but once you enter a country you're possibly going to get checked over or just questioned by border security.
I've been checked in a side room by UK Customs and had all my luggage emptied and walking stick even taken apart.. but I just accepted these guys are just doing their job it's nothing personal and they don't abuse that legal power.. I was treated with respect but also suspicion after coming from a place known as a drugs gateway into UK and just my formal clothing for a vacation and sllightly nervous personality made them a bit suspicious I think. I didn't take it personally or think my rights had been violated in anyway in fact I commend the UK border security for being so vigilent and thorough.
21:44 I feel bad for this woman who is crying because she thought she was being arrested for nothing. For anyone who doesn't watch shows like this traveling can be really scary. Because whenever an officer stops you, it makes you nervous that's normal. Makes you think you really did something wrong or something wrong with your paperwork..etc.
Well that how it is to live in "The Land Of The Free" 😅
The inspectors at the shipping yard, damaging goods - just awesome - leaving a bunch of holes w/the sugar, contaminated the honey & now the chia seeds... just left the hole there huh, not even a duct tape patch. Do the folks that have an honest business get paid for their goods that are damaged?
I applaud them just doing their job, imagine if they were not diligently trying to protect the borders, folks are carrying drugs in their stomach wow wow and carry it to another country.

Was the honey barrel eventually secured properly? The agent seemed to have difficulty and quickly gave up.

To open a barrel, you remove the bolt completely and take off the ring. Then nothing is damaged.

@@user-yy2zz7wk1z where did you get your psychology degree?
That is not the behavior of someone who "had something". That is the behavior of a trauma survivor, or someone who has never been closely examined, especially by a stranger. I know you have a job to do. I know people try to cry their way out of situations. But remember not everyone is a criminal. Have some empathy and compassion. Like you, that young lady is a human being. Suspicion is one thing but being callous is another.
All the more reason to go after these freaks , drug dealers, child traffickers illegal people like cartel members. You know the ones contributing to the abuse causing you trauma. Look at the bigger picture and Stop being so self,absorbed. Toughen up you young people are to soft.
Great, samanthablain6907. So we will consistently not search someone who is coy and quiet. So the cartels will observe that, and start sending drug mules ordered to be coy and quiet.
15:13 They stab the heck out of perfectly good sugar bags a whole bunch for what? For it to spill everywhere? This is how you get ants.
LAME
Tip to would-be shipping container smugglers: Put your stash further back in the container...they appear to only check the cargo near the doors!
not a shipping container expert, but aren't doors on both sides?
@@lokomokoyo some shipping containers are double sided, some arent
How many childern have been trafficked through shipping containers? Shellbell you disgust me.
@@lokomokoyothen jus put it in the middle lmak
Welcome to America 🇺🇸 Guilty till proven innocent.
Nope. But if you are the one who's guarding, you have to have that attitude.
Yeah, right... What's amazing is the fact that they "hit" on every single thing.
They're simply going through the motions. They're not meant to actually intercept much, just enough to justify the funding and blatant theft of tax dollars. Not that the people involved on the ground understand any of that.
How many $ in damage do u think they did stabbing everything in the port with that metal rod lol 😂
I was so angry at the probe going into the giant barrel of honey. It's essentially ruined now. What AHoles.
Her behaviour was horrible? no, you were wrong accusing her of carrying drugs and owe her an apology.
She didn't accuse anyone of anything. When you cross an international border you are subject to search. This is ANCIENT. The Mexicans search people too.
Accusing her of carrying drugs would be, they Mirandize her and put handcuffs etc.
She was obviously acting sus on purpose, she was probably just a distraction, for somebody going thru loaded with something
And for every kilo of drugs found there's probably hundreds not found.
100%
The two girls sure look like tweekers.
Blue-haired eyes totally freak me out.
Absolutely!
Anyone who dyes they’re hair should get a two fisted cavity search.😊
They are the bait for naive stupid police, who wasting their time, hands and eyes on red-flags perfectly clean individuals. In the meantime, perfectly looking couple or family like from poster picture are going free with all the drugs.
That young woman in nogales was a deliberate distraction. The drugs probably walked in right behind her.
Because they’re ignorant by assuming that because someone is scared they’re automatically guilty of something. Maybe she’s just genuinely nervous like any normal person who has never been in that situation would be.
Maybe ....😶🌫️
The girl in the blue jacket seemed almost a bit slow mentally. She didn't seem at all suspicious. She was just telling the truth and not wanting to be harassed.
If someone says "so what were you doing in Mexico" and you can't answer, you don't think that's a little weird?
@@neutrino78xshe said visiting with friends and then kept repeating the question most people would think is my awnser not sufficing should I say something else ?
8:10 Dude was so bummed out that those girls didnt have contraband on them.
They looked like they for sure would.
You ever thought maybe that girl that got searched and cried probably had anxiety. Her behavior wasn't horrible. Y'all need to be trained better on how to deal with all types of people. Your perspective ain't always right. 🤦
100%
that cop was the worst. :we are safegaurding america/; i find dope on 1 out of every 1000 strip searches im so powerful , its too bad we cant DO MOREEEEEE,, awful person.
That girl was by herself and scared! You need some more training, that was terrible. They need people on this job that can really read peoples actions.
To be fair there was definitely reason to be suspicious… & what were the border patrol agents supposed to do? Feel sad & not investigate? In my early 20s, I went to the DR by myself for cosmetic surgery. I was embarrassed & didn’t want to say I came for a BBL lmao so in hindsight, I was highly sus. Saying I went to be with people I met online. Which wasn’t false haha. Then obviously I went to a special place for further questioning. Totally understood, got it sorted out, & made my connecting flight. Although I missed my flight by a minute…..
I can’t believe this is what my tax dollars go to. I can’t even get my return on time but I bet these guys get their paychecks on time.
They poke the front two bags of sugar and declare the whole shipping container a pass! 😂😂😂 what a JOKE!
They use a side scan x-ray scanner. Sorry that this program didn't show it.
DEA is coming to your apartment building for a search of every unit.
wait, so that officer searched those girls bags, patted them down and he ends with "alright, we'll have to let them go"? what kind of response is that? he wanted them to be smugglers. he was disappointed that he had to let them go. thats some ego!
What planet did you say you are from?
Everyone is inocent until proved guilty, the Arizona officer acted like he was sure that the girls had something on them. That was just awful.😢
They do a good job but stuff still gets thru
"the Arizona officer acted like he was sure that the girls had something on them."
No, he acted like he was trying to find out if they had something on them. Obviously you never had a job in the military, private security etc.
That young officer is so untrained to people and what they do it's pathetic!
At borders it's reversed. Guilty until proven innocent. It's true. There's laws governing this.
@@DerBingle1
"At borders it's reversed. Guilty until proven innocent."
For the guys who are hunting bad guys, it's always guilty until proven innocent.
Presumption of innocence is for the courts.
They just cut and destroy everything 😢😢
That dog is so cute carrying around his little paper
Dude seemed sad when he didn’t catch the ladies with anything. Way to serve and protect. How about apologize to the ladies
Lol really?
Yeah seriously ., they do need to apologize.They seem to be disappointed when they come up clean.
They could be carrying drugs internally so they should have x-rayed them.
I'm glad they post these to give us all ideas, learn from your enemy, the smugglers are not the enemy. I'm 13 minutes in and i have yet to see a crumb of actual fetty in this video.
i hope they keep this show running because this is by far the most entertaining videos on youtube
You should be a cop, you are definitely sick enough.
I just found this show 2 days ago and I have just been binge watching. I love the speed of this show. So many things to learn just for my own personal knowledge.
Fentanyl in general is already beyond dangerous but to smuggle it like that is a death sentence if it goes wrong!!!!
When going from one house to the next, you know if not for the cameras, they would have just busted in and searched the place.
not if they don't want to alert the bad guy. It all depends on circumstances, you use different methods
Good thing they had a nice huge crew to check a barrel of honey. Things could have gotten out of hand.
For those of us who have been detained. It is really scary even if you have nothing to do with drugs…. Being a rule follower, you really freak out ! I remember US customs and East German Volkspolizei … both times scary.
Officer Garcia, is way of with suspecting people...lol
Why we cant never see them "destroy" the drugs
it’s funny how they said “a huge red flag is when they squirm in their chair a lot” like most people do that when anxious in a stressful situation??? 😂
Dressed like they are on the frontline but all they do is open boxes.
It's an ego trip to play dress up.
Thanks for posting your shows. Much appreciated.
How much cross contamination comes from dude just dipping what seems to be his personal knife into sample after sample?
I’ve just started reading killing field. I had no idea who you are or where you are because you are part of my basic genre. So I bought a five book series and I’m into killing field and I’m really enjoying it. Thank you sir.
Nice video. More from this please
Your job is not to humiliate, and treat decent people like criminals, disgusting behaviour to say the least! Find better ways to identify criminal elements, and throw the book at them!!!
Special that officer Garcia!!
I was listening to the surprise in the border securities voice like he was surprised she didn't have contraband on her. Passed judgment like that.
@@two_cent very bad behaviour. They are taught to treat people who like them like criminals. Racial profiling at its best, and nothing to do with securing borders!
@@two_cent I've worked really closely with people almost my entire life.
I thought she had something too.
I agree the officer could of handled it better though.
What's your job Walter what do you do in life?
When an honest person's bag gets torn apart and nothing is found is it just the honest person's loss ?
I'll bet my next 26 paychecks Antoine didn't destroy the ecstasy! 😂😂😂
It's a good day when National Geographic posts a To Catch a Smuggler video. Love these
They make up the craziest prices for the seizures to make themselves look better…69k for 231 grams of fentanyl??? So you’re telling me it’s $300 for 1 gram of fentanyl😂😂😂it’s more around $50-$150 MAX , so really it’s value is around $12,000-$35,000 and it’s probably closer to the lower end. Ofc it’s still bad and that’s still quite a bit of money but it’s just strange to me how they exaggerate the price so much
Fur kids are Amazing!
Treats and head scratches, lots and lots of Love 🐕🐕🐕🐕🐕🦊
Garcia seems like she needs a new profession
"Pardon me while I stick our cocaine stick into your honey" xD
That batch is gonna sell like crack!
Later on they will be recalling sugar and honey for contaminants
I praise the job you do
It’s got to be the most difficult job in our country. And all they’re doing is trying to protect people from being infected by this disease that is so bad and out of control.
So far not one fentanyl smuggler
You must not have watched the whole thing.
I like how he is testing without a mask. Fentanyl would put him on the floor
Actually that’s pretty much debunked. But he still should wear a mask.
Probably filmed several Yeats ago.
YEARS...sorry
And his own personal knife to use it later for the real test
They were fentanyl presses, so it wasn't anywhere near pure fentanyl. Each one of those pills probably had a small amount of fentanyl in them since theyre knockoff pharmaceutical pills.
"She did everything we're looking for by saying she didn't have anything on her". What a bunch of tyrants.
No, they're not tyrants. They're just doing their job. And like the lady says, "Why is she wearing a coat on a hot day?" But you would prefer they let suspicious characters go through and bring drugs to ruin our families?
The fat chick definitely was carrying something... That got past the CBP... It was in her belly...
I'm good with the pattern matching saying that this is a likely smuggler, but it's like the agents forgot the word "likely" in that statement.
That's not what tipped them off. It was the initial questions regarding her stay in Mexico. It's their job to find these drugs. Cut them a break.
@@Yosetime They literally said that is what tipped them off in the video.. Breaks are cut where breaks are deserved.
Officer Garcia's embarrassment when she realized her suspect had nothing on her.
I love you guys, love you did, a big hug and respect to you, great job!!!!❤❤❤
Honestly I think the reason they’re upset when they don’t find something is because there could possibly be someone that got through & they just wasted there time on someone with nothing .
They don't care. They know they cannot save the country what what they stop. They care only about little plus and promotions. If they read too many wrong person, then their reading is not good.
No it's because their egos get hurt and they're mad their "suspicions" were completely wrong
In the time they took to detain those two young women, hundreds of illegal aliens came across our borders with hundreds of pounds of narcotics.
They’re bosses are thinking ounces when they should be thinking tons.
ana, yeah, it's one of those things you know. If you never search anybody you definitely won't find the bad guy. But if you're searching people, a lot of the people you search won't have anything. The good guys have to be right every time, but the bad guy only has to get past you once. It's stressful duty but it has to be done. 🙂
