    Tijuana Judge Smuggled 38 Pounds of Cocaine into U.S., Say Feds



    9 Mar 2018

    A municipal court judge from Tijuana was arrested by U.S. Customs and Border Patrol on February 10, 2018, after he attempted to smuggle 38.75 pounds of cocaine into the U.S. at the San Ysidro Port of Entry, according to a recently released criminal complaint filed in the Southern District of California.

    The Tijuana municipal judge identified as Eduardo Sais-Peinado, a Mexican citizen, was crossing alone in a 2007 Jeep Liberty at approximately 6:22 pm when he was contacted by a U.S. Customs and Border Patrol Agent conducting inspections in the pre-primary lanes of the point of entry. Sais-Peinado presented a border crossing card and advised that he was heading to Chula Vista and claimed he had nothing to declare when asked. Sais-Peinado further related that the Jeep belonged to him and only he and his girlfriend used it, according to the complaint.
