A Laredo lawyer who was part of student protests that helped launch the Chicano rights movement in Texas will be in court next week in San Antonio, accused of transporting undocumented immigrants.
Armando Treviño, 71, was arrested Monday, accused of picking up a pair of Honduran immigrants who were abandoned by their smuggling guide along U.S. 83 southwest of Cotulla, according to federal court documents.
Neither Treviño, who was released on unsecured bond following the arrest, nor his lawyer could be reached for comment Friday. Treviño will be back in court Thursday for a hearing to determine whether Border Patrol had probable cause to arrest him.
