Coyote Bros: How Hard-Partying College Kids Became Immigrant Smugglers. Three friends and a team of frat brothers — plus a stripper, an ex-army ranger, a door-to-door salesman and a go-go dancer — made a fortune on the most heavily patrolled stretch of highway in Texas.
Boss was taking as many as fifteen smuggling trips a week. He had married his high school sweetheart and they’d recently had their first child. “I wanted to save enough to be set,” he says. After a routine trip to Arevalo’s place in Falfurrias, Boss decided to double dip. He picked up another group of immigrants standing outside of a Walmart, unaware that a Border Patrol officer was staking out the parking lot in an unmarked vehicle. As Boss got set to leave a nearby smuggling hotel, where he stashed 18 migrants, Border Patrol fenced him in. In the glove compartment they found a loaded stainless steel .45 — an unlicensed gun — and arrested him. “I knew I was done,” Boss says. He was facing serious time. Once out on bail, he switched off his phone and retreated to his parents’ ranch.
