00:00On the evening of February 17th of 2024, in what should have been a standard arrest,

00:12quickly spiraled into the unthinkable taking place.

00:16Let's take a look at the shocking story and find out what actually happened.

00:21One of the toughest jobs in the world is a truck driver that does over the road halls.

00:27Not only is it physically demanding, but also can take a toll on someone's mental health

00:31as well.

00:33Often commercial drivers are spending the bulk of their days and nights far away from their

00:38family and friends.

00:41Society benefits greatly from the sacrifices they make as they are routinely transporting

00:45much-needed goods around the country.

00:48However, in some cases, truckers could be transporting more than just goods in their trailers.

00:55To stop this sort of illegal activity in its tracks.

00:59The US Border Patrol has checkpoints on major roads, where they inspect and arrest individuals

01:04that may be smuggling weapons, drugs, or even humans in their vehicles.

01:10On Interstate 35, approximately 25 miles north of Laredo, Texas, a Border Patrol canine would

01:18smell something fishy going on in a red-semi truck at the checkpoint.

01:23The dog would give the patrol agents probable cause to dig deeper into what was going on.

01:29After some brief questioning, the agent proceeded to enter the cab.

01:33The officer would discover seven undocumented individuals hiding inside.

01:37killed one.

01:39Heστ następ.

01:40situation zones.

01:41In Terravia.

01:41habit.

01:42Hi guys.

01:43Hey, pick the cigarette out.

01:46Take the cigarette.

01:47Where is the cigarette?

01:48Come on.

01:49IGA's shirt.

01:50Yeah, shirt.

01:52Can you take photos?

01:54The story surrounding this arrest only gets stranger from here.

02:19The penalties if someone is found guilty of alien smuggling can be quite severe to say

02:23the least.

02:25The state of Texas has one of the harsher sentences for the federal offence, with a minimum of

02:2910 years in prison.

02:32The man and the undocumented group of seven would be transported to the Border Patrol Detention

02:37Center following the discovery.

02:39Do you have anything else in the tractor?

02:43No other personal property in there?

02:46Electronics, important religious items, pictures of kids, family members.

02:49You all got a lot of mail.

02:51A lot of mail.

02:54Mail.

02:55Mail.

02:56Okay.

02:57All right.

02:58Take off the sweater.

03:00You're right back right now.

03:02I'm just going to go through it.

03:04All right.

03:05Does that sweatpants have a band on it?

03:07Take it off.

03:08Do you want that one?

03:10If it doesn't come out, we'll cut it out.

03:15Unfortunately, it's just part of the process.

03:17We have people that try to hurt themselves.

03:19You need to take out the band on that.

03:21It won't come out.

03:22All right.

03:23We're going to have to cut it out.

03:24Just pull one to one side for me, please.

03:25Hey, back here!

03:26.

03:27Can you, sir?

03:28Yeah.

03:29All right.

03:30I'll take that one for you.

03:31All right.

03:32You can take out the assembles.

03:33And then take out the socks.

03:35Okay, and then the other foot as well.

03:39Put it back on?

03:40Yeah, you can put it back on.

03:44So what do you have the ankle monitor on you?

03:46Huh?

03:47What do you have the ankle monitor on you?

03:48Uh, it ain't health to rest, but me and my mare got it to it, and I'm supposed to go

03:54around that area.

03:55Okay.

03:56All right.

03:57I'm going to have you stand on the wall real quick, and do a quick pat-down, okay?

04:00.

04:01You have an idea.

04:02I'm not seeing one in here.

04:03Yeah, that's where it's here.

04:04All right.

04:05Come on.

04:06Come on.

04:07Set up your feet.

04:08With the realization of possibly facing prison time for his actions, the truck driver, later

04:14identified as 43-year-old Trennell Davis, would ask to speak with his mother.

04:19Huh?

04:20Uh, not right now.

04:25Um, who do you need to call?

04:27My mom or my mom.

04:28Your mom?

04:29Okay.

04:30Um, we'll see, okay?

04:33It's, you're not obligated to a phone call, so we'll see how, if we have time.

04:38Uh, where's your mom at?

04:40At home, I guess.

04:42In .

04:43Okay.

04:44And you know the number?

04:45Mm-hmm.

04:46We'll see how things go.

04:47Um, and if we have time.

04:48If we have time, uh, I'll let you make a phone call, but it's gonna have to be on speakerphone,

04:52okay?

04:53All right.

04:54.

04:56What's the process?

04:57.

04:58Um, so it's gonna be a little while, that's for sure.

05:01Um, we have to make a phone, a few phone calls, um, to other agencies and stuff like that.

05:06Uh, you'll probably be, you're gonna be in custody at least for the weekend, okay?

05:12Um, we're gonna submit your case to the courthouse.

05:15Either we are or HSI, um, and they're gonna determine whether it's accepted or declined.

05:22What's the name?

05:23Uh, for prosecution, for the, for the charges, for alien smuggling, okay?

05:29Um, um, so, uh, since it's Saturday, the courts aren't open on the weekends and Monday's a holiday,

05:38so technically probably Tuesday.

05:40.

05:42Um, probably not in here, probably at the other, at the main station.

05:45Um, but yeah, most likely.

05:47Um, and then most likely Tuesday morning you'll have a, a hearing in front of the judge.

05:55And, uh, I don't really know here if they, they release you or not.

06:00I'm not too sure.

06:02So, uh, it kinda is still iffy since it's so early in the, in the process.

06:08Okay.

06:09Um, someone's gonna come talk to you in a little bit.

06:12Read you your Miranda rights, all that stuff, okay?

06:14Does that make sense?

06:16Do you have any other questions?

06:18No?

06:19Okay.

06:20Do you have any medical conditions or anything?

06:24No?

06:25Okay.

06:26Okay.

06:27All right.

06:28We'll be with you in a little bit, okay?

06:29No one's gonna be able to, like, you can't really hear through this.

06:31I'll be honest with you.

06:32You're gonna wait.

06:33You're gonna wait.

06:34You're gonna wait?

06:35Yeah.

06:36I thought it was gonna be a little room or something.

06:37I wanna just steal my mind, so.

06:38You wanna what?

06:39Just tell us something.

06:40Okay.

06:41Just tell us something.

06:42Okay.

06:43Well, just remember, it's about nine o'clock here.

06:44Well, it's eight o'clock here.

06:46So, she's a .

06:47It's what?

06:48It's the same.

06:49Yeah, it's the same.

06:50It's the same.

06:51Oh, it's the same?

06:52Yeah.

06:53Oh.

06:54Okay.

06:55All right.

06:56You can take the phone in the room.

06:57Let's talk to everyone.

06:58Mm-mm.

06:59Mm-mm.

07:00Mm-mm.

07:01Mm-mm.

07:02Mm-mm.

07:03Mm-mm.

07:04Mm-mm.

07:05Mm-mm.

07:06Mm-mm.

07:07Mm-mm.

07:08Mm-mm.

07:09Mm-mm.

07:10Mm-mm.

07:11Mm-mm.

07:13Mm-mm.

07:14Mm-mm.

07:15Mm-mm.

07:16Mm-mm.

07:17Okay.

07:18Right now.

07:19No.

07:20Well, can you talk to my phone?

07:25No.

07:26No.

07:27No.

07:28Here.

07:29Let's go back over there, okay?

07:30If you're not going to make the phone call, then...

07:32All right.

07:33We'll come back and get you in a little bit, all right?

07:49...

07:51While unwilling to talk publicly in that moment, Davis would have a change of heart later in

07:56the night.

07:57After the call, he was taken back to his holding cell.

08:01When the agents went to check on him later, they would find him unresponsive with his jacket

08:05around the throat area.

08:08The patrol agents immediately called for emergency medical services and attempted CPR

08:13on the unresponsive Davis.

08:15The ambulance would arrive approximately 20 minutes later and take over.

08:20Unfortunately, this would be the last days of Davis, as the revival was not a success.

08:26It's still unclear why he made the drastic decision.

08:30Could it have been the fear of a harsh prison sentence?

08:34Possibly envisioning a bleak future due to the likelihood of having his commercial license

08:39revoked?

08:40Or was it simply a combination of those thoughts in addition to the stress that comes with truck

08:45driving in general?

08:47Let me know what you think about this particular situation and what transpired.

08:52...60 First Avenue, 60 First Avenue, 60 First Avenue.

08:56See the complaint to Department 18, C Lake and Charlie.
