A 24-year-old woman, Gloria Lopez-Corona, was arrested at the San Luis port of entry for attempting to smuggle a drugged child across the border. The child, who was asleep under a blanket, had been given sleep gummies to sedate him. Lopez-Corona presented a fake birth certificate but was later found to not be the child's actual mother. The child disclosed he had been transported by a man to the U.S. border. Lopez-Corona now faces federal charges for her actions.
ICE officials reported a migrant woman was arrested for trying to smuggle a drugged child across the border using a fake birth certificate.
Lopez-Corona initially claimed they were visiting family in Los Angeles, but investigators found inconsistencies in her story.
Upon further investigation, the child revealed he was sedated with gummies and had been transported by a man to the border.
After uncovering the child, officials determined he was much older than stated in the birth certificate, raising suspicions about Lopez-Corona's claims.
