Description
Just 2.5 hours away from San Antonio is the U.S. border city of Del Rio, Texas. It’s the home of Laughlin Air Force Base where U.S. Air Force Pilots are trained. And it’s now known internationally as the site of the largest mass entry via land of Haitians during the law known as Title 42. The CDC put Title 42 in place in March of 2020 to stop the spread of Covid 19. This allowed the quick expulsion of migrants without giving them a chance to seek asylum as outlined under U.S. law. During the two decades I have covered immigration and border issues, I have never seen or experienced anything like the tidal wave of effects and feelings ignited by Title 42. Whether Title 42 is extended or done away with, border counties and border patrol must be ready for whatever is to come. Who better to share what is going on at the Del Rio area of the U.S. border with Mexico than Chief Patrol Agent in Charge of the Del Rio Sector Jason Owen and Val Verde County Sheriff Joe Frank Martinez. They maneuver through immigration laws and those of the state of Texas in this volatile time in our border history.
