Mexican agent joins cross-border crime unit in San Diego
Tagged: border, California, crime, Mexico, San Diego, TijuanaPosted on: November 13th, 2007
In upcoming months, a Mexican intelligence officer will start working north of the border with a San Diego-based team of federal and local investigators that specializes in cross-border crime.
The inclusion marks a departure from the more traditional cross-border collaboration, which often means scheduling meetings, going through bureaucratic channels and developing trusted sources over time.
In this case, the Mexican officer, who will remain an employee of his or her own agency, will be based out of the San Diego office of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement. The officer will use a computer and phone paid for by ICE and will be reimbursed by the U.S. government for living expenses.”*
