The investigation and indictment were supported by Joint Task Force Alpha (JTFA), the Department of Justice’s lead effort in fighting human smuggling and trafficking. To date, JTFA says it has resulted in more than 477 domestic and international arrests of leaders, organizers and facilitators of human smuggling, more than 431 U.S. convictions, and more than 370 significant jail sentences imposed, and forfeitures of substantial assets.
