PHOENIX — Three people were arrested late Thursday after 11 children were found at a drop house in Phoenix, Ariz., police said.

Phoenix Police Sgt. Steve Martos said the FBI first contacted the local Home Invasion Kidnapping Enforcement unit following a report that three teenage girls had been kidnapped in El Salvador.

The suspects were trying to extort money from the teenage girls' parents and had threatened to sexually assault them if their demands were not met, Martos said.

Authorities entered the house at 6 p.m. Thursday and found 11 minors, the youngest of whom was a two-year-old girl, as well as the three teenage girls, aged 12, 14 and 15.

Investigators believe they had actually been smuggled into the United States, not kidnapped, along with eight other children from Mexico, El Salvador and Colombia, Martos said.

Detectives found one male suspect in the south Phoenix house, who told them he had also been smuggled into the U.S. but could not pay so was put to work "guarding" the others, Martos said.

Police detained two others, a man and a woman, who were driving away from the house as they arrived.

Police said they were working to reunite the children with their families.

Make sure these Latino tourist kids see the Alamo while they scam "mucho pesos" from the stupid gringos. Why don't poor American children receive such network coverage?
 
Because it wouldn't be newsworthy then. The media doesn't publish happy, rainbow and lollipop stories! It's all sex, murder, crime and controversy.
 
Listen asshole, why would you think a person who would kidnap would have a moral compunction not to rape and sell the sexual services of these children?

Grow the fuck up.

It could be a training ground for all one knows;
CUERNAVACA, Mexico — Soldiers in Mexico have captured a 14-year-old U.S. citizen suspected of being a drug gang hitman as he attempted to travel to the United States.

Edgar Jimenez, known as "El Ponchis," is believed to work for the South Pacific drug cartel in Morelos state, outside Mexico City, the army said on Friday. Media reports last month on the search for a boy with the same nom de guerre said he could be as young as 12.

The boy was caught late Thursday as he boarded a plane in the city of Cuernavaca. He was traveling to the border city of Tijuana with two of his sisters, one of whom is believed to be the lover of one of the cartel's bosses, the army said.

They have infiltrated ever part of America and I believe they caused the economy to crash.
 
I hope the cops didn't ask the kidnappers their immigration status. Lefties have a problem with that. Could damage the whole case. :evil:

I thought all Mexicans are related (extended family). "It's our culture" That was the excuse they gave the federal government in their lawsuit against my town so we have to allow 15-20 Mexicans in a room or LA RAZA gets pissed off!

Geeze defending kidnapper huh?

This is the sex trade you idiot racist.

All it said was these kids were "kidnapped". Actually, they are illegals too. Where does the sex come into it. Internet porn you forgot to delete?:eusa_drool:
 
The kids were being held for ransom. If they were to be used in the sex trade, there wouldn't have been any demands. I think the article said two of the kids were legal, and their mother lives in CA - legally. They are kidnapping American kids as well. And our govt wants amnesty. Nice.

Alleged boy assassin charged with 4 homicides
Feb 10,`11 -- Mexican prosecutors have filed homicide charges against a 14-year-old U.S. citizen who allegedly acted as an assassin for a drug cartel.
Authorities say Edgar Jimenez Lugo confessed to killing four people whose beheaded bodies were hung from a bridge in Cuernavaca, a central colonial city that is popular with Mexican and international tourists alike and is known for its yearlong springlike climate. Jimenez has been charged with the homicides and other crimes, including arms possession and transporting cocaine, prosecutors from Morelos state, where Cuernavaca is located, said in a statement late Wednesday. Because he was charged as a juvenile, he faces a maximum three years in prison.

Prosecutors identified the boy only by his first name, but his family gave his full name to journalists. Jimenez was born in San Diego, California, but grew up in Mexico, raised by his grandmother. He and his sister were arrested in December as they tried to board a plane to Tijuana, where they purportedly planned to cross the border and reunite with their mother in San Diego. The two siblings allegedly worked for Julio "El Negro" Padilla, a reputed drug trafficker who authorities say has been fighting for control of the drug trade in Morelos. Morelos was formerly under the control of the Beltran Leyva gang, which broke up after alleged leader Arturo Beltran Leyva was killed in a shootout with Mexican marines a year ago.

The battle among remnants of the gang has caused an unprecedented spike in violence in Morelos and in neighboring Guerrero state, where the resort city of Acapulco is located. Stories of a hit boy, maybe as young as 12, spread after a YouTube video appeared in November with teens mugging for the camera next to corpses and guns. One boy on the video alleged that "El Ponchis" was his accomplice. A relative has said Jimenez was nicknamed "Ponchi" by his family because he was a pudgy child.

When he was handed over to federal prosecutors, the boy calmly said in front of cameras that he participated in four killings while drugged and under threat. But his family has said they don't believe the confession. A close relative, who asked not to be quoted by name for fear of retaliation, has told The Associated Press that he believes Jimenez was an errand boy for criminals, not an assassin. The relative said the boy might have confessed to the killings to show off.
