Produced by Telemundo 48 El Paso / KTDO, En La Mira de Los Traficantes follows investigative journalist Josué Esquivel as he embeds with law enforcement and uncovers how organized crime traffics drugs and people between El Paso and Juárez, Mexico. The special provides an in-depth look at the criminal tactics used in border operations, featuring:
- Secret tunnels beneath the Rio Grande, used to smuggle drugs and people across the U.S.-Mexico border.
- Surveillance networks and informants, including how local residents are recruited as “lookouts” and transporters for organized crime.
- Border Patrol operations, highlighting some of the most dangerous encounters agents face while confronting human smugglers, known as “Coyotes.”
With exclusive footage and first-hand reporting, En La Mira de Los Traficantes offers viewers an unprecedented look at the harsh realities of border crime and law enforcement efforts to combat it.
