Human Smugglers Made Up To $2.3 Billion In Year From Smuggling Illegals Into U.S., Study Finds
Peter Hasson on April 23, 2019
Illegally smuggling Central American migrants into the United States is an industry that may be worth billions of dollars, according to a new study released Monday.
Human smugglers transporting migrants into the U.S. from Central America’s Northern Triangle — Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador — brought in an estimated $200 million to $2.3 billion in revenue in 2017, according to the study.
The study, conducted by the RAND Corporation on behalf of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS), also found that criminal cartels don’t directly oversee much of the smuggling, though they do profit by charging smugglers a tax for traveling through areas under their control.
