For years, a Mexicali-based smuggling organization moved hundreds of illegal aliens from Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America into the United States — charging thousands of dollars while exploiting the very people they smuggled.

Ofelia Hernandez Salas, also known as Dona Lupe/La Guera, was sentenced to 11 years in federal prison for her role in the operation.

A key part of the case was the strong coordination between El Centro Sector agents, Homeland Security Investigation special agents and law enforcement partners in Mexico, leading to arrests, extradition efforts, and the successful federal prosecution of a transnational smuggler.
