Chilean crooks using visa waiver program to enter US, rob homes: Long Island police
Robert Gearty

Long Island police say criminals from Chile are using a visa waiver program to enter the U.S. to burglarize affluent homes before flying back home.

Five members of one such Chilean burglary crew were charged Friday with breaking into 16 “Gold Coast” homes on the north shore of Long Island following their arrests a day earlier at a Bronx motel where they were found in possession of the loot, Nassau County police said.

Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder said the suspects were part of a crime ring sent to the U.S. on 90-day ESTA visas to rob homes.

These are pretty bad crimes to have committed as well as using the system to do so. I'm certainly glad that they have been caught and caught within the USA, no need for extraditions.
