ʻO ka nalu o ka lawe kolohe ʻia ʻana ma Mekiko i ka hapalua o ka nui o nā mākaʻikaʻi e kipa aku ana i kahi kaulana kaulana o ka ʻāina a haʻalele i nā haole e hana nei i ka ʻāina makaʻu no kā lākou mau ʻohana.

I kahi manawa pākana no nā mea mākaʻikaʻi ʻAmelika, ʻo Tijuana, ma ka hema o ka palena ʻo US, ua ʻike i ka pae ʻana o nā pae malihini kipa ma waena o kahi nalu o ka hewa kolohe e pili pū ana me ka piʻi ʻana o ka hopohopo i nā kāʻili kaua, ʻo ia hoʻi nā kamaʻāina ʻAmelika.

ʻO ka pahele mākaʻikaʻi ma mua i ʻike ai i ka hāʻule ʻana o nā pae malihini kipa e 50 pākēneka i loko o ka makahiki i hala aku nei, i haʻi aku ai ʻo Jack Doron, ka pelekikena o ka Tijuana Merchants Association, i ka San Diego Union Tribune. ʻO ia wale nō kahi o nā wahi mākaʻikaʻi ʻo Mekiko e makaʻala nui ana i ka poʻe mākaʻikaʻi no ke kipa ʻana i hāʻawi ʻia i ke kiʻekiʻe o ka hana ʻino e pili ana i ka hewa i hoʻonohonoho ʻia.

I Ianuali, ua aʻo aku nā luna o ʻAmelika i ka poʻe huakaʻi i Mekiko e hana i ke akahele pono i hāʻawi ʻia i kahi lūlū hou ʻia o nā kāʻili ʻAmelika. Wahi a ka FBI, ʻo ka helu o ka lawe pū ʻana e pili ana i nā kamaʻāina o ʻAmelika a me nā kamaʻāina kū kānāwai ma ke ʻaoʻao o Kaleponi wale nō i ʻoi aku i ka pāpālua ma 2007 a, mai Nowemapa, aia ma ka helu o ʻeono i kēlā me kēia mahina.

Manaʻo ʻia nā ʻāpana kākā ʻo Mekiko akamai a kolohe hoʻi ma hope o ka lawe ʻia ʻana, kahi i hoʻokumu pinepine ʻia i nā mea i hōʻeha ʻia mai nā ʻohana waiwai e uku i nā kālā hefty.

"He ʻoihana ia iā lākou," wahi a Darrell Foxworth, he luna kūikawā FBI ma ka ʻāpana ʻo San Diego. "Pili lākou i loko o kekahi mau hana kolohe a he ʻaihue kekahi no ka mea he waiwai ia iā lākou no laila ke hana nei lākou ma ke ʻano he ʻoihana no ka mea e loaʻa kālā."

ʻO ka poʻe i make he poʻe me ka "pili ʻohana a i ʻole nā kaula ʻoihana" i Mekiko nāna i huakaʻi pinepine mai ʻAmelika mai, i ʻōlelo ʻo ia. "A ʻo ka poʻe lawe pio, nā mea lawe ʻino, e nānā i kēia poʻe e loaʻa kekahi waiwai i mea e uku ai i kahi pānaʻi. ʻIke ʻia ʻaʻole lawe wale ʻia lākou, aia kahi nānā mua a nānā mua paha ma mua. ”

Ma kahi o 90 pākēneka o nā hihia e pili ana i kahi ʻohana papa waena me ka ʻole o nā pilina lawehala e noho ana ma San Diego a me nā kaiāulu kokoke.

ʻO nā mea kāhue i mākaukau a kāhiko pinepine ʻia i nā mākaʻi a i ʻole ka US Immigration a me ka Customs Enforcement āpau a i ʻole hoʻonoho ʻia ma ke ʻano he mākaʻi no ka huki ʻana i nā kaʻa o ka poʻe ʻeha. Mālama ʻia nā mea hoʻokipa "no kekahi manawa e noi i kahi uku" a hoʻokau pinepine ʻia i "nā hana hoʻomāinoino, hoʻomāinoino, hahau ʻana," wahi a Mr Foxworth.

"Pōloli pū lākou - loaʻa iā mākou kahi hōʻike kahi i mālama ʻia ai kahi kanaka no ʻelua pule i ka wā i hoʻopaʻa lima ʻia lākou me ko lākou mau lima ma hope o lākou i ka manawa holoʻokoʻa, kaulahao ʻia i ka papahele a hānai ʻia he ʻekolu mau tortilla a me ka wai. He mea maʻalahi ʻole ka mea i loaʻa i kekahi o kēia poʻe. ”

E like me ka piʻi ʻana o ka nui o ka lawe pio ʻia ʻana, ua hopohopo pū ka FBI no ka ʻoiaʻiʻo o kekahi mau hana kāʻili i hana ʻia ma ka ʻāina ʻAmelika, wahi a Mr Foxworth. "E hele mai nā hui i ka palena, kāʻili i nā kānaka a hoʻihoʻi iā lākou i lalo i Mekiko," i ʻōlelo ʻo ia.

ʻAʻole e hōʻike ka FBI i ka nui o ke kālā i koi ʻia, a uku ʻia i kekahi manawa. Akā i loko o kekahi hihia i hala koke aku nei, ua koi ka poʻe kāʻili ʻino i kahi kālā e uku ʻia ma kahi o £ 150,000 a me 25,000 kālā no nā ʻāpana wahine ʻelua i lawe pio ʻia i ka wā e hōʻike ana lākou i kahi waiwai ma ka hema o Tijuana. Ua kūkākūkā nā lālā o ka ʻohana i ka uku o £ 13,500 a hoʻokuʻu i ke kālā ma kahi wahi ma Tijuana, akā ʻaʻole i hoʻokuʻu ʻia nā mea i hōʻino ʻia.

Ua loaʻa lākou ma hope o ka mākaʻi ʻana o ka mākaʻi i ke kaʻa e hoʻohana ai e hōʻiliʻili i ke kālā a alakaʻi ka mea hoʻokele iā lākou i kahi hale kahi e paʻa ai nā wahine.

I Ianuali, ua ʻōlelo ʻia e ka mokuʻāina mokuʻāina ʻo ʻAmelika he 27 mau ʻAmelika i lawe ʻia i ka palena ʻākau o Mekiko ma mua o ʻeono mau mahina i hala a ua luku ʻia he ʻelua o kēia mau pio. Ua hoʻolaha ʻia e "pono e makaʻala nā makaʻāinana o US i ka makaʻu e kau ʻia e ke kūlana palekana e hōʻino ana" ma ka palena me Mexico.

Ua kākau ʻo Tony Garza, ka ʻelele nui o ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa i Mekiko, i nā luna kiʻekiʻe o Mekiko e hōʻike ana i kona hopohopo no ka ulu ʻana o ka hana ʻino e pili ana i ka lāʻau a me nā kāʻili ʻino ʻana ma ka ʻākau o Mekiko e lilo ai i hopena ʻoliʻoli nui ma ke kālepa kūkae a me ka hoʻokipa. Ua huki ʻo ia i ka nānā i ka "māhuahua o ka poʻe i pepehi ʻia a kāʻili ʻia i ko ʻAmelika i nā mahina i hala iho nei".

I ka 2007, e like me ka FBI, ma ka liʻiliʻi he 26 mau kamaʻāina County ʻo San Diego i ʻaihue ʻia a mālama ʻia no ka uku pānaʻi ma Tijuana a me nā kaiāulu Baja Kaleponi o Rosarito Beach a i ʻole ensenada.

I kēia mau lā, ua aʻo aku nā luna o ke Kulanui o San Diego State i nā haumāna e "noʻonoʻo i ka hana hoʻomāinoino i hala iho nei" ma mua o ka huakaʻi hema ʻana no ka wā hoʻomaha o kēia mahina.

Ma ka Pōʻakahi, ua hoʻoili ʻia he kaua pū he ʻehiku mau hola i ka wā a nā koa a me nā mākaʻi pekelala i hoʻokumu ai i nā lālā o ke apo kāʻili i ka hale ma kahi kaiāulu nui ʻo Tijuana. Ua pepehi ʻia kahi mea kānalua a ua hoʻokuʻu ʻia kahi mea ʻaihue, ke keiki a kahi kalepa kaulana, e paʻa ʻia ana ma ka waiwai.

Ua hele mai ka hoʻonui ʻana o ka hana ʻino ma muli o ka hoʻonui ʻia o ka hana e US a me nā luna Mexico e hōʻoki i ka hewa i hoʻonohonoho ʻia, e komo pū ana me ka nui o ka ʻāina, a me ke kālepa koko, kālepa lāʻau.
