The federal government is charging a Mexican national with
attempting to bribe a U.S. Border Patrol agent after he was caught illegally
re-entering the United States.
Court records show that on February 8, 2025, Samuel
Mendoza-Torres, 29, was arrested with another person near the Santa Teresa
Border Patrol Station. Mendoza-Torres reportedly asked the agent, "Can we
fix this?" and offered him $400 to get him out of jail while he was taken
to the station.
Mendoza-Torres admitted to helping illegal immigrants reach
the United States from Mexico during an interview after his arrest. He also
said he knew it was illegal to give money to the Border Patrol agent.
