Illegal Immigrant Smuggler Claims She Stopped Near Border to ‘fool around’; Accused Smuggler Claims She Was Getting Frisky With Boyfriend When Migrants Jumped In Her Car

Illegal immigrant smuggler claims she stopped near border to ‘fool around’:

Jackie Nichole Hall said she just wanted to “fool around” with her boyfriend near the border.

But he said they were actually sitting in their vehicle near the Mexico boundary in Texas because she was there to smuggle illegal immigrants.

Now both stand charged with alien smuggling, and Ms. Hall is also accused of assaulting a federal agent after accosting him and throwing a water bottle at him.

Border Patrol agents first spotted their Kia sedan on July 7 near the border along what agents consider a “notorious” smuggling route. When agents stopped the car, five people jumped out of the rear doors of the sedan and fled.

Ms. Hall and John Christopher Ramirez stayed in the Kia.

Under questioning, Ms. Hall said they came from Odessa, Texas, to Presidio to watch the sunset and then “drive in a little ways and fool around.”

Asked about the curious choice of location right along the shoulder of a road, she told agents she liked “a little danger.” She said they “were about to do some of that fooling around” when the back door suddenly opened and people piled into the sedan and demanded she start driving. —>READ MORE HERE

Accused Smuggler Claims She Was Getting Frisky With Boyfriend When Migrants Jumped In Her Car:

A woman claimed she was about to have sex with her boyfriend in a car when a pack of illegal immigrants rushed into her vehicle and demanded they drive.

Jackie Nichole Hall and John Christopher Ramirez were charged with conspiracy to transport illegal migrants earlier this month after they were allegedly caught driving with migrants in their car in the Big Bend, Texas, area, according to documents filed in the U.S. District Court for the Western District of Texas. Hall was additionally charged with felony assault on a Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) officer.

The charges stem from an incident on July 7, when cameras spotted a red Kia sedan driving near the Mexican border west of Presidio, Texas, in an area that is known as “one of the most notorious smuggling routes,” according to a complaint affidavit filed in the Western District Court of Texas. Border Patrol conducted a vehicle stop in order to perform an immigration check on all the occupants inside.

As soon as the vehicle stopped, five individuals were observed rushing out of the vehicle, according to the complaint. The Border Patrol agent identified the driver and the front seat passenger — Ramirez and Hall, respectively — as U.S. citizens and transported them both to the Presidio Border Patrol Station for further investigation.

During her testimony to federal agents, Hall denied she was intentionally smuggling migrants and was just trying to “observe the sunset” and have an intimate moment with Ramirez.

“We were gonna drive in a little ways and fool around,” Hall said when asked where in the Big Bend area she was going to watch the sunset, according to court documents. When asked about why they would partake in sexual activity off of a highway with limited privacy, she stated, “Sometimes people like a little danger.” —>READ MORE HERE
