An illegal alien has been sentenced to life in federal prison without parole for murdering a legal immigrant who blew the whistle on a $3.5 million illegal hiring scheme in Savannah, Georgia, that was operated by illegal aliens from Mexico.

Juan Rangel-Rubio, a 46-year-old illegal alien, was sentenced to life in prison for shooting Eliud Montoya, a legal immigrant who became a naturalized American citizen, in an execution-style murder-for-hire in 2017.

“Eliud Montoya was murdered for doing the right thing and revealing Juan Rangel-Rubio’s scheme to profit off his use of undocumented workers,” United States Attorney Jill Steinberg said in a statement. “As a result of the diligent efforts … Juan Rangel-Rubio will be held accountable for his despicable crimes.”

As Breitbart News first reported in late 2018, Mexican illegal aliens Juan Rangel-Rubio, Pablo Rangel-Rubio, and Higinio Perez-Bravo had been indicted for operating a massive, 10-year illegal hiring scheme wherein they employed at least 100 illegal aliens for Wolf Tree, a tree service company.

The three illegal aliens hired illegal aliens and gave them stolen Social Security Numbers (SSNs) of American citizens to fraudulently bypass U.S. labor laws. The three illegal aliens would also conceal the illegal alien hires by taking their paychecks, cashing them, and paying the hires in cash while skimming money from their checks.

Alarmed by what the three illegal aliens were doing, Montoya, in April 2017, contacted the tree service company to report what they were doing. A copy of Montoya’s complaint was handed over to Pablo Rangel-Rubio.

Then, in August 2017, Montoya contacted the federal government to report the scheme. After finding out about the call to federal officials, Pablo Rangel-Rubio arranged for the legal immigrant’s murder — paying Perez-Bravo to drive Juan Rangel-Rubio to Montoya’s residence.

In October 2022, Juan Rangel-Rubio was found guilty of shooting Montoya to death, while Perez-Brown and Pablo-Rangel-Rubio pleaded guilty in April 2022 for their roles in the murder-for-hire and illegal hiring scheme.

While Juan Rangel-Rubio serves a life sentence, Pablo Rangel-Rubio is serving a nearly 50-year prison sentence and Perez-Bravo is serving 20 years.

Biden’s Countdown to End Title 42: Nearly 400K Migrants May Arrive at Southern Border Every Month

President Joe Biden is seemingly counting down the days until his administration ends the public health authority known as Title 42, which has stemmed waves of illegal immigration since mid-2020, on May 11.

In 2020, in the midst of the Chinese coronavirus crisis, former President Donald Trump invoked Title 42 at the border to ensure that federal immigration officials could quickly return illegal aliens to Mexico for the sake of public health.

To date, more than 2.5 million illegal aliens have been removed from the United States after crossing the southern border thanks to Title 42.

Biden, though, is expected to end the authority in about a month — a move that his administration admits could bring close to 400,000 border crossers and illegal aliens to the border every month.

Such a monthly illegal immigration inflow would be larger than the resident population of New Orleans.

“DHS Office of Immigration Statistics projects that [border] encounters could average 11,000 to 13,000 per day after the lifting of the Title 42 public health order, absent additional policy changes,” a proposed federal rule reveals.

That figure does not include the tens of thousands, every month, that would evade Border Patrol agents and successfully cross the border into the U.S. interior.

“You first have to consider that the only deterrent that we currently have is Title 42,” National Border Patrol Council President Brandon Judd told Fox News this week:

When you look at the total number of people that are crossing the border illegally and are being released into the United States, we have already released millions of people into the United States — not thousands, millions of people. [Emphasis added]

The only thing that has allowed us to keep that at bay is Title 42 … so once Title 42 goes away, that 40 percent are going to be released into the United States as well. But it’s not just that, it’s going to be the draw factor … even more people are going to come. [Emphasis added]

Thanks to the administration’s expansive Catch and Release network, which includes a massive parole pipeline, hundreds of thousands of migrants could be directly released into American communities as a result of Title 42 ending.

“So whereas we’ve released close to four million people into the United States since Biden has been in office, we can expect that number to double in the next two years,” Judd continued. “… it’s crazy to see what’s going on and it’s crazy to see that this administration hasn’t put anything into place to help us get this under control.”

House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Mark Green (R-TN), as well as Senate Republicans like Bill Hagerty (R-TN) and Joni Ernst (R-IA), is backing a plan that would convert Title 42 to fight the nation’s deadly fentanyl crisis that is killing more than 100,000 Americans every year.

Green has not yet filed legislation to convert Title 42.

Previously, administration officials said up to half a million border crossers and illegal aliens — the equivalent of the population of Atlanta, Georgia — could arrive at the border every month.

Rep. Andy Biggs (R-AZ) told Breitbart News in April 2022 that he expects 30,000 border crossers and illegal aliens every day at the border without Title 42. In Tijuana, Mexico, alone, Breitbart News exclusively reported last year that up to 6,000 foreign nationals were waiting to rush the border when Title 42 ends.

POLICE: Migrant Smugglers Wreak Havoc on Texas County Highways near Border

Law enforcement officers in Zavala County, Texas, had their hands full with high-speed pursuits, vehicle crashes, and the associated private property damage resulting from migrant smuggling activities during the first ten days of April. The small sheriff’s department in the county located 30 miles from the Rio Grande was involved in twenty-four such cases in the first ten days of the month.

Zavala County Chief Deputy Ricardo Rios told Breitbart Texas the dangerous human smuggling incidents are becoming more frequent as time goes by. “This is getting worse by the day,” Rios said. “Last month was bad, now it’s worse.”

The encounters often end when migrant smugglers crash vehicles after frequently lengthy pursuits on isolated farm-to-market roads and state highways traversing the county. The deputies, often working alone, are outnumbered by the occupants of the vehicles who flee into nearby ranches making arrests difficult. Often, the human smugglers and the migrants they are transporting elude apprehension.

Even though some suspects and migrants escaped, the damage done during the incident remains as a reminder of the consequences of the illicit activity on local property owners and residents who are growing frustrated with the situation.

The county experienced a surge in migrant smuggling in recent months, Breitbart Texas reported. Despite the overwhelming odds of eluding apprehension favoring the smugglers, the department managed to arrest ten human smugglers in the twenty-four incidents so far this month. Fourteen suspected smugglers managed to escape pursuing deputies. An untold number of migrants fled from the deputies. However, deputies arrested 50 migrants were arrested during the incidents. The migrants arrested according to Rios are subsequently turned over to Border Patrol agents.

The smugglers, according to Rios, often travel to the border region hoping to make a quick buck. Offers on social media websites provide the drivers with “pin drop” markers letting them know where they can find the migrants waiting for transportation. The messages include an offer of up to several thousand dollars to provide the illegal transportation. The smugglers at times are from the larger metropolitan areas near Houston, Dallas, and San Antonio, according to Rios. Others involve residents from farther away who accept online offers to make what they believe to be easy money.

One smuggler encountered in early April was a Cuban national smuggling multiple migrants in a commercial moving truck. The migrants were discovered in the closed rear cargo area of the truck. When stopped by one of Rios’ deputies, the occupants fled into a nearby ranch. With the help of a Texas Department of Public Safety Highway Patrol Trooper and his K-9, the driver and four migrants were arrested. The rest managed to escape.

Rios says the county is receiving support from the Texas Highway Patrol and the limited number of Border Patrol agents in the area. Although the help is valuable to the department, Rios says it’s not enough to eliminate the traffic or to make a dent in the increased encounters involving the migrant smugglers.

The task of combating the increase in migrant smugglers continues to threaten the department’s ability to provide traditional law enforcement functions in the county. Rios says Sheriff, Eusevio Salinas, is committed to making sure county residents receive the full services of his department despite the added workload. Several high-profile arrests in the community involving sexual assaults highlight the department’s ability to multi-task Rios says.

Under current Texas law, human smugglers can face stiff penalties. Suspects arrested and charged under a Texas statute for Smuggling of Persons, which currently is a third-degree felony, carries fines up to $10,000 and a prison term between two and 10 years.

As reported by Breitbart Texas, Governor Greg Abbott has asked the currently convened Texas Legislature to increase the criminal penalties for human smuggling in hopes of creating an even stronger deterrent to the illegal activity many Texas communities are experiencing.
