PHARR, Texas (Border Report) — Homeland Security officers recently seized over $85,000 in unreported cash hidden in a vehicle that was trying to drive to Mexico from South Texas.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers seized the cash April 14 during an outbound inspection at the Pharr International Bridge.

The vehicle was driven by a 19-year-old U.S. citizen whose car was scanned using non-intrusive inspection technology.
 
The technology is being used increasingly throughout ports of entry connecting South Texas with Mexico. And will be incorporated in a new expansion of a heavily trafficked Border Patrol checkpoint north of Laredo.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I'm sure it was from a legitimate business transaction! *****rollingeyes*****
