The federal government has arrested a gang of suspected illegal immigrants who posted photos of themselves with high-level items stolen from NFL quarterback Joe Barrow's home.
A group of immigrants from Chile were arrested after the Bengali player's Cincinnati home in December 9th. New York Post.
The suspicious con man wore Barrow's expensive watches and posed for a photo showing Louis Vuitton's luggage and cash wads.
Officials also say the photos showed migrants wearing “B9” and “#9” neck chains covered in Barrow diamonds.
The suspects have been identified as Chilean national Francisco Cuiloga Sanchez, 22, Bastián Alejandro Orellana Morales, 23, and Sergio Andres Ortega Cabello, 38.
Prosecutors say the migrants are part of a South American theft gang that fly foreigners to commit robberies and are back home.
“Our investigation continues as these individuals appear to be suspects of icebergs from South American theft groups committing crimes throughout our district and other districts,” he said. Attorney Kenneth L. Parker said in a statement.
“We owes victims to track evidence on these suspected criminal networks and hold law violations accountable, whether they are professional athletes or not.” He added.
Texas Republican Rep. Chip Roy warns of the growth of “robbery tourism” as law enforcement is tracking gangs jumping into the country by committing home invasions, and the State Department's approved visa We would like to remove the Chilean country from the waiver of the . Program (VWP).
“American communities have experienced an outbreak of 'robbery tourism'. Chilean organized crime rings were able to exploit the loopholes of VWP by entering the US without a visa or a proper criminal history check,” Roy said at the end of last month.
