The U.S. government's CBP One app was meant to create an orderly process for asylum seekers and reduce illegal border crossings. It's been a boon for cartels.
In early March, Pedro Arandia , a 29-year-old from Venezuela , and his two young nieces crossed the Suchiate River on Mexico’s southern border, paying the equivalent of $30 to be rowed from the Guatemalan side. They stepped off the boat — and right into the arms of gangsters. “That was my first experience getting kidnapped in Mexico,” Arandia said in a recent interview at a migrant shelter in Matamoros , just across the Rio Grande from Brownsville .
Babkin said Mexican officials looked the other way as the gangsters entered the encampment. The Russians were instructed to select one representative to deal with the cartel. The criminals communicated via a translator app on their phones, and the representative passed their instructions to the Russians. They were told when they could leave to buy food and where they were allowed to go.
