Sentencing set for admitted rip-off crew member

July 14th 2012   ·   0 Comments

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) – A man accused of robbing marijuana smugglers after they sneak into the United States is scheduled to be sentenced on a conspiracy charge on Sept. 10.

Authorities say Rito Osorio-Arellanes was part of a ring that preyed on smugglers.

Five other members of the alleged rip-off crew are also charged with murder in the December 2010 shooting death of U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry.

Rito Osorio-Arellanes was in custody before the shootout and doesn’t face murder charges.

He pleaded guilty in February to a charge of conspiracy to interfere with commerce by robbery.

Two guns found at the shooting scene were bought by a member of a separate gun smuggling ring that was being monitored in the federal government’s botched gun smuggling probe known as Operation Fast and Furious.

Why do you think the drug cartels are more violent in Mexico than the U.S.A.
