EL PASO, Texas (KTSM) — Thirty-three stash houses were identified and 91 migrants who were being harbored there were “rescued” as part of Operation Disruption which took place during a 12-day period in August in Doña Ana and Luna counties, New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham said on Tuesday.
Operation Disruption is a “coordinated effort to combat human trafficking and organized crime in southern New Mexico,” according to the governor’s office.
The operation, which took place over 12 days in August, resulted in “significant disruptions to criminal networks and the rescue of numerous victims,” the governor’s office said.
