Jonesy, usually I think you’re on something, but this time I believe you are on to something. While many go down there for cheap surgery, I wouldn’t doubt a side trip for some nefarious activity took their trip off course quickly. Mistaken identity? Kidnapping? There’s certainly more to this story and we’ll get some, but not all of the details. And just another reason why I’m in no hurry to get to Mexico on a personal trip anytime soon.
PS: Curious how they expected to get across the border each way without issues given their criminal histories.
