Woman Busted Smuggling 8-Year-Old Boy Across Arizona for $500
Cochise and Pinal County deputies stopped a woman transporting an 8-year-old boy she had picked up after he crossed the border with only her daughter.
She drove the children to an Eloy motel. A traffic stop raised red flags when she couldn’t explain the boy’s presence.
She admitted receiving $500 to deliver him, with no idea who or where the drop-off was.
The boy is safe and being reunited through CPS and the consulate. The woman faces federal charges. A multi-agency effort is credited with the rescue.
