00:12¡SuscrÃbete al canal!
00:30All right, boys, let's go do this.
00:32The shipments earmarked for inspection are from a European sender.
00:38Hello, guys. We are back.
00:42Whose details bear the hallmarks of a smuggling operation.
00:46This shipment might be good. We're going to be passing it through the x-ray.
00:53Okay. I like that image right there.
00:57That might possibly be something.
01:00So now we're going to do a more thorough inspection.
01:03The way people package things nowadays, anything can be disguised as anything.
01:16This looks like a friendly kid's package. A simple cartoon.
01:19But when we open it, we usually find pills.
01:30Anything in the bag is going to stick me, poke me, cut me, hurt me by any chance.
01:34We're up against a clock.
01:35We're looking for anybody that's not declaring, and there's going to be a lot.
01:48The way people do it, and there's going to be a lot.
01:54That's this one that has been loved.
01:59Time to take as long as soon as possible.
01:59I want to go.
02:06Walking to my personal action.
02:18Hoy en San Francisco
02:27A traveler está siendo inspected
02:30After an x-ray revealed some
02:31Unusual looking objects in his luggage
02:34I'm just looking for
02:36We're pretty much contraband
02:37We're just going to do a quick baggage inspection
02:39Just to see what he's bringing in
02:42Having just landed from China
02:44He claims to have forgotten the combination
02:46For the lock on his suitcase
02:49So I'm going to need to cut it open
02:51Which isn't a problem
02:54For Officer Gluzov
02:58You claim full responsibility of all the items
03:00That are in your bags
03:01Yes
03:03Inside the suitcase
03:05What's in this box
03:07Staplers or staples
03:08Is an unusually large quantity
03:11Of office supplies
03:13Why do you need staples?
03:16What kind of staples are they?
03:20Like regular staples
03:21Why don't you just go to staples
03:23And buy some staples?
03:24It's cheaper over there
03:27Officer Gluzov
03:29Counts 30 staplers
03:30And over 40,000 staples
03:34How many staples do you need?
03:36I use a lot of paperwork
03:38How many people do you work with?
03:41I love a lot of people
03:42How many is a lot of people?
03:43I know big staples
03:45Wow
03:46So many staplers
03:50Do you usually get inspected?
03:52No
03:52Never seen so many staples
03:54Never seen so many staples
03:56What is this?
03:58It gives to me
03:59Okay
04:01It's called tea
04:02Got a little tea?
04:06Is it mushrooms?
04:07What is this?
04:09Tea
04:09Tea?
04:11I don't do it
04:13The traveler claims
04:15The mushrooms are for making
04:17A traditional infusion
04:18I just got to test it out
04:20But officer Gluzov
04:22Needs to make sure
04:24They aren't
04:24The magic kind
04:26I'm just going to test out
04:28The mushrooms
04:30Psilocybin mushrooms
04:31Contain hallucinogenic compounds
04:33Making them a schedule
04:35One controlled substance
04:37I understand
04:39Everyone gets inspected
04:40Okay, Matt
04:40You can go
04:41Very small sample
04:44Bringing them into the country
04:46Is a federal crime
04:47Which can result
04:49In a heavy fine
04:50And even jail time
04:57Okay
05:09Okay
05:11I like that image right there
05:12That might possibly be something
05:16At Newark's cargo facility
05:18This looks like a friendly kids package
05:21It's a simple cartoon
05:22But when we open it
05:24Pills
05:27Officers have intercepted
05:28An airmail package
05:29From Europe
05:30One of a large shipment
05:32Flagged for inspection
05:34After they vacuum seal it
05:35They'll wash it
05:37With a solvent
05:38To get the smell
05:39Away from the package
05:41So that the drug sniffing dogs
05:43Can't detect it
05:46All right
05:47So let me go ahead
05:51Perfect
05:51I'm going to try this
05:53All right
05:54Let's go ahead and test
05:56For quick identification
05:59Officer Olivo
06:00Uses a laser device
06:01Which searches over
06:031,200 substances
06:04In mere seconds
06:07Okay
06:07We're going to get ready
06:08To conduct a scan
06:09From cutting agents
06:10To narcotics
06:14There it is
06:15MDMA
06:18MDMA
06:19Or ecstasy
06:20Is a synthetic party drug
06:22Which is illegal
06:23In the US
06:24And United Kingdom
06:25Good job
06:27Officer Olivo
06:28It's a hallucinogenic
06:29You wake up
06:30The next morning
06:31Not knowing what you did
06:33A single pill
06:34Has a street value
06:35Of around $80
06:36Meaning this pack
06:38Is likely to be worth
06:40Nearly $25,000
06:42This is definitely
06:43A good find
06:44We get these off the streets
06:47Criminal gangs in Europe
06:49Are increasingly
06:50Manufacturing synthetic drugs
06:52To trade directly
06:53With Mexican cartels
06:55In exchange for cocaine
06:57Much of their product
06:58Is trafficked
07:00Using America's mailstack
07:02Okay
07:02We're good
07:03Alright
07:04We've got a few more to go
07:07With a further
07:0845 packages
07:09In the shipment
07:11Get that envelope
07:12Maybe something
07:14The officers
07:15Aren't done yet
07:18You can see here
07:19There's an envelope
07:20And within the envelope
07:21You see
07:21Two distinct packages
07:23In there
07:23So once again
07:24This is a top view
07:25This is a side view
07:26So this may be
07:28Probable or something
07:31My spider's
07:31This is stingling
07:32This is packaging
07:33Very similar to what
07:34We just found
07:34With the ecstasy pills
07:38Bingo
07:39Once again
07:41Our cartoon
07:42Feline friend
07:43Packaging on the outside
07:44With no name brands
07:45On the top
07:50Okay
07:51This looks like
07:52A package of ketamine
07:53And this
07:53Possibly could be
07:54Pink cocaine
07:55So we're gonna see
08:00I'm confident
08:00I'm confident
08:01That this is gonna
08:01Come out positive
08:02For something
08:02We shall see
08:10There you go
08:12Ketamine
08:14Ketamine
08:15Is a fast acting
08:16Anesthetic
08:18It's growing popularity
08:20As a recreational drug
08:22Has fueled a rapid
08:23Increase in use
08:24In the US
08:26This will come back
08:27This will come back
08:27As ketamine
08:27As well
08:30There you go
08:3210
08:33Good 5
08:34It's a party drug
08:36It's a huge party drug
08:37That they use constantly
08:37Having also tested
08:39Positive for ketamine
08:41Officers want to establish
08:43Why only the second batch
08:44Is pink
08:45We're gonna take
08:46A reading of it
08:47With the Gemini
08:49Which is a little bit
08:49More accurate
08:50This test
08:51Requires a device
08:53With a larger library
08:54Of chemicals
08:58The pink powder
09:00Here came back
09:00As ketamine
09:01Mixed with MDMA
09:03A potentially lethal cocktail
09:05Both substances
09:07Have been linked
09:08To fatal strokes
09:09And heart attacks
09:14We're just
09:14We're killing it today
09:16Yeah so basically
09:17It looks like
09:18It's one of those days
09:19Sometimes
09:19We get nothing
09:21Sometimes we may get
09:22Maybe one
09:23Maybe two
09:24But today
09:25It looks like
09:26We're getting a slew
09:27Of illicit contraband
09:28Coming through the port
09:28Today so
09:29It's a good day
09:30This I don't know
09:31What this one is
09:32We're gonna have to test this
09:33But here we go
09:34With more party pills
09:36Problem is a lot of people
09:37Take too much of this stuff
09:38They wind up ODing
09:40And they're trying
09:40To celebrate something
09:41A celebration
09:42Turns into a tragedy
09:45We might have more
09:46Another suspect right here
09:48Another suspect
09:49Another suspect
09:50We're gonna pull all three
09:54It's a frenzy all today
09:57The x-ray directs them
09:59Towards a further
10:00$20,000 worth of party drugs
10:04Positive for MDMA
10:07These smugglers will try anything
10:09And everything
10:11To get the little packages through
10:12Three hours in
10:14Have another one
10:17The search takes a turn
10:20This is
10:21This is something else
10:26Possibly this could be
10:27Testosterone
10:29This package appears to be
10:31From a different sender
10:32This time
10:34In Turkey
10:36We're gonna have
10:37Our officer test this
10:38To see what it really is
10:59Is it mushrooms?
11:01What is this?
11:03In San Francisco's secondary
11:05A man referred for a suitcase search
11:08He's gonna test out the mushrooms
11:12Is attempting to bring mushrooms
11:14Into the country from China
11:17We just need a very small sample
11:21He claims they're for making tea
11:25I don't know what it is
11:26But if they contain
11:28Hallucinogenic psilocybin
11:30The test will turn purple
11:33That's cool
11:34I mean
11:35That's no worries
11:37And the traveler
11:38Will be in hot water
11:42Yeah
11:42If it was positive
11:44It would
11:44Pop for
11:45Like a lightish purple
11:50It's not positive right
11:51No, we'd have a different
11:53Conversation then
11:58I can't tell you why
11:59You were inspected
12:01I never got
12:01But keep in mind that
12:03If you're coming in
12:05To the U.S.
12:05You're subject to inspection
12:07Every passenger
12:09It doesn't matter
12:09If you're a green card holder
12:10U.S. citizen
12:11Like yourself
12:13Or visa
12:15All right
12:16You're all set, sir
12:17Thank you, man
12:18Thank you
12:20Chinese culture
12:21Has a long tradition
12:22Of making tea
12:23From medicinal mushrooms
12:26Fungi
12:27Such as reishi
12:28And cordyceps
12:29Are prized
12:30For their earthy flavors
12:31And health-giving properties
12:33China's known
12:35For a lot of teas
12:36Guy did a test
12:38No mismatch
12:39All regular
12:40The guy was a little bit
12:41Annoyed
12:42Being inspected
12:43That is
12:44Kind of a
12:45Normal thing
12:45Between U.S. citizens
12:47People don't like
12:49To be pulled out
12:50Or be
12:50Extra inspected
12:52And they get fishy
12:53When they ask us
12:54Why are they being inspected
12:56But we can only tell them
12:57That they're subject
12:58To inspection
12:59Come on, man
13:00You too
13:01Have a good one
13:02Bye
13:25If you're on the facial recognition
13:26You just need your lovely face
13:28And your face will mark you on board
13:32Did you guys purchase
13:33Or acquire anything
13:34On this trip
13:34That you bringing back
13:35With the other day
13:35Any like handbags
13:36Jewelry
13:37Anything like that
13:38No
13:40By law
13:41All commercial purchases
13:43Made abroad
13:43Must be declared
13:44And the required
13:45Import duty paid
13:48Alrighty
13:48Use your guys' passports back
13:50You guys are all set
13:52At CBP checkpoints
13:54And baggage claim
13:56Officers are spot-checking
13:57Passengers
13:58Just off a flight
13:59From Rome, Italy
14:01Something I'm never
14:02Going to use
14:03I don't think so
14:05Officer Reynaud
14:06Has stopped the owner
14:08Of a bridal dress store
14:09Who's returning
14:10From a buying trip
14:12100% French cotton lace
14:14Handcrafted in Italy
14:15Do you have them
14:17A silver for these, ma'am?
14:18No, I don't
14:19At an earlier checkpoint
14:21She failed to declare
14:22Five wedding dresses
14:24To officers
14:24This is not
14:26For we sell
14:28And explains
14:29It's because
14:30They're samples
14:31Gifted to her
14:32By an Italian supplier
14:34Are they labeled
14:35As samples?
14:36No
14:37It all needs
14:38To be declared
14:39As custom
14:41But even if I
14:42Didn't pay for
14:44It's for your business
14:45Regardless of whether
14:46You're selling it
14:47Or using it
14:47As a sample
14:48And how do you do that?
14:49You let the officer
14:50Up front know
14:51Or you let me know
14:51When I stop you
14:52But she didn't
14:53Let me know
14:54Listen
14:55Listen
14:55I'm in business
14:56Since 96
14:57Okay
14:58We sell dresses
14:59After $30,000
15:00Okay
15:01Because we do
15:02Everything custom
15:03Made by custom
15:04I get it
15:06I get it
15:06So it's a totally
15:08Different scenario
15:09So for customs purposes
15:10You have to declare it
15:11As a commercial sample
15:12I declare everything
15:14I'm a very honest person
15:16Press to put a value on them
15:18She estimates each dress
15:19To be worth
15:20Just $50
15:22She's just going to kind of modify
15:24And play with them a little bit
15:25But for our purposes
15:26It is being brought in
15:27As commercial goods
15:28She did not declare
15:30The dresses to me
15:31She placed the value
15:33At these dresses
15:33At $250 in total
15:35These are handmade
15:36Italian dresses
15:37Wedding dresses
15:39They would not be worth $50
15:41I imagine they would
15:42Be far more than that
15:43In Italy
15:43And they are certainly
15:44Worth more here
15:47Since the samples
15:48Have no retail value
15:49For her
15:49The woman says
15:51She has made
15:51An honest mistake
15:53Which could end up
15:54Costing her dearly
15:57Listen to me
15:57I'm explaining this to you
15:58From a custom standpoint
15:59Everything has value
16:00And when you bring
16:02In commercial items
16:03If you don't declare them
16:04They're subject to seizure
16:20Combination of ketamine
16:22With MDMA
16:22In Newark
16:24Officers have intercepted
16:26Three packages
16:27Of party drugs
16:28From Europe
16:29We're just
16:30We're killing it today
16:32So far
16:33They estimate
16:34The seizure
16:35To be worth
16:35Roughly $45,000
16:37On the black market
16:40But the search
16:41Takes a new direction
16:43As officers
16:44Intercept another shipment
16:46This time
16:47From Turkey
16:49This is something else
16:52Possibly this could be
16:53Testosterone
16:54Non-regulated
16:55We're going to have
16:56Our officer
16:57Test this
16:58To see what it really is
17:02What we have here
17:04This is the Anabal
17:05A steroid
17:06Used for muscle growth
17:09So schedule 3 drug
17:12Dianabol is a prescription
17:14Only anabolic steroid
17:15Widely used for enhancing
17:17Muscle physique
17:18And athletic performance
17:20We're going to crack the pill
17:22Just because usually
17:24Hills they come with a little film
17:28And the film will prevent us
17:30From getting the correct reading
17:32Shining a red beam
17:33Which is your laser
17:35Add the material
17:39Okay
17:40No match found
17:41So we got no match
17:42On the Dianabol
17:43But that will call
17:44For further testing
17:45The inconclusive reading
17:47Suggests the pills
17:49Don't contain
17:49What they claim
17:51The fake pharmaceutical industry
17:53Is one of the most profitable
17:55On the black market
17:56Estimated to be worth
17:58Up to an annual
17:59200 billion dollars
18:01Due to its lax
18:03Counterfeit laws
18:04Turkey
18:05Is a major source country
18:08A lot of this stuff
18:09Is not regulated
18:10All the young men
18:11That want to get
18:11Super muscular
18:12They have really no idea
18:14What they're really ingesting
18:17After 4 hours
18:18And 50 packages searched
18:20Hundreds of pills
18:22And controlled medication
18:23Are seized
18:24All worth close to
18:26$50,000
18:28Maybe a small amount
18:29But at the end of the day
18:30We've saved a few lives
18:33What is this
18:33The 18?
18:37The seizure
18:38Will be passed
18:39To Homeland Security
18:40Investigations
18:41As evidence
18:41Who will work
18:43With European law enforcement
18:44To track down
18:45The labs
18:46Behind the shipment
18:49For Officer Olivo
18:51Today
18:52Marks yet another
18:53High point
18:54In a long running
18:55Dedicated career
18:56Well I don't want to say
18:58That I'm a legend
18:58But I try my very best
19:00To identify
19:01Whatever comes
19:01Across my table
19:02Right now
19:03I'm getting ready
19:04Ready to retire
19:05But every day
19:07That I am here
19:08I'm going to do my best
19:09To try to stop
19:10As much contraband
19:11As I can
19:12Because I love my country
19:14And you know
19:15I just want to make sure
19:16That these drugs
19:17Don't get into
19:18The hands of children
19:40But this is not the full resale
19:42It's commercial
19:43You did not declare it
19:45In secondary
19:47A bridal store owner
19:49Has failed to declare
19:50Has failed to declare
19:50Five sample dresses
19:51Gifted to her
19:52By an Italian supplier
19:55I'm a very honest person
19:57I'm a very honest person
19:57So this is not
19:58For resale
19:59But it is commercial
20:02No it's not
20:03Since she has no plans
20:06To sell them
20:07She believes
20:08They have no commercial value
20:10I'm a customs officer
20:11I'm a customs officer
20:11I've been doing this
20:12For a lot of years
20:12Okay
20:13And I will tell you
20:14100%
20:15It is commercial
20:15From a customs perspective
20:17It is commercial
20:18It's more business
20:19Okay
20:20I respect you
20:21But to me
20:23Commercial means
20:24That I have a client
20:25That I can put this dress on
20:27Look at
20:27This dress is this big
20:28It does not treat anybody
20:32I'm not going to try it on
20:33I'm just saying
20:34I don't know
20:34I don't know
20:35For customs purposes
20:36You have to declare it
20:38You have to declare it
20:39With the proper value
20:40Okay
20:41When asked
20:42She estimated the dresses
20:44To be worth around
20:45$50 each
20:47Officer Reynaud
20:49Disagrees
20:50If customs disputes
20:51The value
20:52Which in this case
20:53I do
20:53$250 is way too low
20:55Than what's here
20:55I don't mean
20:56These are handmade dresses
20:57In Italy
20:57I know they're not resellable
20:58I know you're not
20:59Planning on selling them
21:00But clearly
21:01They're worth more than
21:02$250
21:03And they're commercial
21:04Okay
21:05They are considered commercial
21:06For customs purposes
21:07Because you are bringing them in
21:08For business use
21:10Even though the woman
21:11Has made a genuine mistake
21:13On this occasion
21:15Officer Reynaud
21:16Won't be saying
21:17I do
21:18How are we gonna do this
21:20It's gotta get looked at
21:20By our import specialist
21:22They'll determine
21:23What the actual value
21:23Of these items are
21:24And then they'll assess
21:25Any tariffs
21:26Any duties that are owed
21:27Okay
21:28You will owe duties
21:29On these items
21:31All five dresses
21:32Are seized
21:35Nobody's going without a wedding dress
21:37Right
21:38I don't wanna ruin anyone's wedding
21:41So we're gonna put it
21:42Into a bonded warehouse
21:44With the airline
21:45And our customs import specialist
21:46Can take a look at it
21:48And they'll determine
21:48What the value is
21:49For these items
21:50And then
21:50They'll assess any tariffs
21:52Any duties that are owed
21:53On those items
21:54And then you'll be able
21:55To get them back
21:55Thank you
21:56Do you have any questions
21:57At all ma'am
21:57No
21:58Okay
21:58All right
21:59Thank you very much
22:00Sure
22:01Sure
22:01We can do that
22:02Thank you
22:02All right
22:02Thank you so much
22:03And this gentleman's
22:04Gonna get you onto
22:05Okay
22:06Onto your final destination
22:07Yeah
22:07All right
22:07Have a good day
22:08Bye
22:10Ciao
22:11Ciao
22:11Bye bye
22:3128% of all illicit drugs
22:33Seized in the U.S.
22:35Are at airports
22:37What you got here?
22:39Uh
22:39Climbing harness
22:41Okay
22:41Your rock will climb?
22:42Yeah
22:43All right
22:44Do you have any chalk in here?
22:45Yeah
22:45All right
22:46This doesn't look like
22:48The same consistency
22:48As like cocaine
22:49But with that being said
22:51It gets broken up
22:52With so many things
22:53In order to catch smugglers
22:55Customs and Border Protection
22:57Regularly carries out
22:58Specialized operations
23:00Known as 100% checks
23:06I know
23:07I know
23:07I missed you too
23:10At JFK
23:11Officer Sanjerjo
23:14And K9 Magnus
23:15Are heading out
23:16To runway 22 left
23:18Where a flight
23:19From the Dominican Republic
23:20Has just touched down
23:23The Dominican Republic
23:24Happens to be a hub
23:26For narcotics
23:28To transfer through
23:29We try to hit
23:30Those flights
23:31Hoping that
23:32We come up on something
23:34A 100% check
23:36Is when a plane
23:37Its passengers
23:38And even its crew
23:39Are inspected
23:40Without prior warning
23:42Once they put the
23:44Chops on
23:45We'll get out
23:46We like to watch
23:47The airline workers
23:49And see
23:50You know
23:50Make sure that
23:51They're not
23:52Hiding a bag
23:53Or concealing a bag
23:54We want to make sure
23:55That all bases
23:56Are covered
23:58Onboard the now
23:59Empty A320
24:00The search begins
24:02Hop
24:02Good boy
24:05We normally like to look
24:07In like
24:08Little compartments
24:09Like this
24:09Because
24:10Sometimes
24:11You never know
24:13What has happened
24:14Before
24:17Where we find
24:18Something in there
24:19Hop
24:21Good job
24:25Bathroom
24:26Good boy
24:29Magnus is trained
24:30To detect the scent
24:31Of weapons
24:32Cash
24:32And narcotics
24:33Even if they're
24:35No longer on board
24:36Hop
24:37Keep
24:39Good job
24:41His nose is so good
24:42That I could skip
24:43A couple rolls
24:44And even if there's
24:46Something in the seat
24:47He will alert
24:48And he'll take me there
24:49We have the AC on
24:51Right now
24:51So
24:52If there was anything
24:54The wind could
24:55Possibly
24:55Move the odor
24:56I have to
24:57Trust my dog
24:59And follow him
25:00Good job
25:03We're going to go
25:04Inside the belly
25:05So
25:06That's going to be
25:07The next part
25:09Below the passenger deck
25:11Aircraft search technician
25:13Officer Cambry
25:14Enters the cargo hole
25:17Okay
25:19Within
25:19This area
25:20They actually hide
25:22A lot of
25:23Countrymen
25:23Narcotics
25:24And weapons
25:25We're going to
25:26Scan some of the panels
25:27To see what's
25:28Within the void
25:29There's a lot of
25:30Voids
25:30In this aircraft
25:31Here in this area
25:32And if I do see
25:33Anomaly
25:33Then I'll open it up
25:34And then from there
25:35We'll do further inspection
25:37Previous searches
25:38Of aircraft cargo holds
25:40Have revealed
25:41Narcotics stashed
25:42By ground crews
25:43Being bribed
25:44By the cartels
25:45This is this area
25:47That I just scanned
25:48And that's where
25:49You get the
25:49Panel separation
25:50And the screws goes
25:59I see a small
26:02Anomaly here
26:03I'm going to open
26:03The area
26:04Just to inspect it
26:05Because it does look like
26:06A little unusual
26:07To see that
26:07So I'm going to check it out
26:09And see what's in there
26:12The hatch
26:14Stores gases
26:15Used to inflate
26:16Emergency evacuation
26:17Systems
26:18In an area
26:19Only accessible
26:20To flight crews
26:23Okay
26:24It's part of the insulation
26:25Back here
26:26This is what
26:27The insulation looks like
26:29Sometime you have a piece
26:30That's actually full
26:31With the x-ray
26:32You will see it
26:32As a heavier mass
26:33So that's where I saw
26:34The piece of insulation
26:35Actually just stuck over here
26:37So I can see that
26:38So it's negative
26:40For any narcotics
26:42So far
26:43The hold appears clean
26:45Good boy
26:46Good job, Magnus
26:50But up on the passenger deck
26:54Up
26:55Hey
26:58Magnus
27:05Magnus
27:05Picks up a scent
27:18He's alerting over here
27:21On the corner here
27:25Like he took a big inhale
27:29He's going crazy
27:30I'm going to call
27:32One of you guys
27:32There might be something there
27:57He's alerting over here
27:59At JFK airport
28:01A team is performing
28:02A 100% check
28:04Of an A320
28:05From the Dominican Republic
28:07A known transit point
28:09For smuggled contraband
28:11He's going crazy
28:12I'm going to call
28:13One of you guys
28:13There might be something there
28:16Canine Magnus
28:17Has picked up
28:18A suspicious scent
28:19On the passenger deck
28:21Hey
28:22Sorry to bother you
28:22I was on
28:23One of the flights
28:24And I wanted
28:26One of you guys
28:26To check something out
28:27For me
28:29There could possibly
28:30Be something there
28:31This aircraft
28:32Might have been used
28:33For transporting
28:35Of narcotics
28:36It could possibly be
28:38The AC is on
28:39So odor kind of travels
28:42And you know
28:43Sometimes
28:44The dog can pick up
28:46On the odor
28:46But because of
28:47The circulation
28:48He can't really
28:50Pinpoint where it is
28:52So it's up to us
28:54To kind of step in
28:55And use our tools
28:59Aircraft search mechanics
29:01Arrive to investigate
29:07There's something there
29:09That like a odor
29:10That he's trained
29:11To detect
29:12He would
29:13Kind of give off
29:14This behavior
29:15So that's why
29:16I'm a little bit
29:18Optimistic
29:18That something
29:19Might be there
29:23In the belly
29:25Of the plane
29:26All right
29:28Aircraft search technician
29:30Officer Cambry
29:31Conducts a corresponding search
29:33Trying to access
29:35The area of suspicion
29:36From below
29:38I see you man
29:40I'm down here
29:42I have my partners
29:43Upstairs
29:53Yeah it looks pretty good
29:54Here
29:55Looking good
29:58So in that area here
30:00We actually communicate
30:01Make sure there's
30:02Nothing upstairs
30:02And I'll make sure
30:03I tell them
30:04There's nothing down here also
30:06So far
30:06Looked pretty good
30:07Nothing here
30:07So there's no step outside
30:10And then we'll close up
30:18After a two hour search
30:24Okay
30:25This is secure
30:27Officers declare the plane
30:28Free of contraband
30:31It's a cat and mice game
30:33So it's just one of those things
30:34That we have
30:35We have to do here
30:36And you know
30:37Just try to get the drugs
30:39Off the street
30:39And this is part of our mission
30:41And as aircraft search mechanics
30:45This is what we do here for CBP
30:49Officers have a theory
30:50That Magnus was picking up
30:52On the residual odor
30:53Of narcotics
30:53From a previous leg
30:55This is why Magnus could have picked it up
30:58For today
30:59Magnus' work is done
31:01But Customs and Border Protection
31:04Will continue
31:05Its 100% checks
31:06And remain vigilant
31:08It was a productive day for us
31:11Magnus loves his job
31:13I love my job
31:14And we're everyday motivated
31:19To find more and more drugs
31:21I will do it over and over again
31:23If I can
31:24You hear that Magnus?
31:26Yeah
31:26Eh ehç…®ir for everyone
31:27He he he he he
31:27He hex
31:29He encompassed
31:43He even
31:44He either
31:44Plays
31:45He the force
31:45He even
31:46Kkin
31:46LMA
31:46He
31:54He
31:54D
32:21¿Estás casado con la chica que te viste hoy?
32:27En Honolulu, a couple traveling from China on B2 tourist visas have been referred for questioning.
32:37On their frequent visits to the U.S., the wife returns home after a short visit, while the husband stays
32:45behind.
32:47Officer Nix wants to find out what's behind the unusual travel pattern.
32:53I'm just going to have you take a seat right here for me.
32:59The pair is questioned separately.
33:03When was the last trip to the U.S.?
33:07Okay. Who did you come with?
33:11Okay. How long did you and your wife stay?
33:13With my wife and me is about two months.
33:18Just two months?
33:19About two or three months, yeah.
33:21Two or three months. That's a pretty big difference.
33:23Three years. It's another three months.
33:26Why did your wife leave after two weeks?
33:28Because my wife go back to China, take care of the baby, and then I keep to travel, and I
33:36meet my costumate.
33:38Costumate.
33:39So what did you do?
33:40I go to the bar.
33:42Okay.
33:43I get a drink.
33:45Similar to their last trip to the U.S., the wife is yet again booked on a return flight, but
33:51her husband says he has plans to stay longer.
33:55How come you didn't buy a ticket to go back home yet?
33:58Not yet. I want to book tomorrow.
34:01And where are you going to stay?
34:03In a hotel, and then I rent a car to get a road trip.
34:07You said you're going to rent a car. Do you already have a reservation for a car rental?
34:12Not yet. I want to rent today and return today.
34:17You're going to book a new car every day?
34:19Yeah, yeah.
34:20Why not just book one for six days?
34:23Because the hotel parking is about $60 one day.
34:30If I rent one day, there's no fee for parking.
34:34After two weeks, do you have any plan of staying longer?
34:40I want to go to the California.
34:44Wait just one moment. I'll be right back.
34:47The man's travel plans are unusually light on detail.
34:52There's a lot of disparities with the fact that he doesn't have a lot of reservations, any real details for
34:57his travel, or even lodging or flights to follow along with his plan.
35:02There's also the fact that he admitted that he initially did not tell us his full plans, which do include
35:07travel to the mainland United States after his time in Hawaii.
35:12A search of his suitcase yields a surprising discovery.
35:16It's weird. He's got nine different bank accounts.
35:20Multiple credit and debit cards with U.S. banks.
35:24We are going to bring the information we have for this individual, the evidence we had suggesting his various bank
35:30accounts.
35:30We're going to investigate further to determine what his intent in the United States is and what his past activities
35:37were.
35:39When we looked at your luggage today, you have like 15 to 20 different bank cards.
35:45Why do you have almost 20 bank cards, debit cards?
35:50Because listen, once we find something that you didn't tell us about, and if it's something that might cause us
35:56for concern,
35:58you're not going to get an opportunity to change your story at that point.
36:21In Honolulu, a married couple from China is being questioned after red flags were raised by their travel plans.
36:30When we looked at your luggage today, you have like 15 to 20 different bank cards.
36:36Why do you have almost 20 bank cards, debit cards?
36:42Here on tourist visas, the husband claims they came for vacation.
36:47But the discovery of his multiple U.S. bank accounts suggests otherwise.
36:52Before then I come to America, I want to do the business in China.
36:59But they need to have the bank account in the U.S.
37:05Usually an account gives you one, maybe two cards.
37:08You have almost 20.
37:10Yes.
37:11So how many different accounts?
37:12Oh, about nine.
37:16Nine?
37:17About nine.
37:19Why nine different bank accounts in the United States?
37:23Because sometimes my friend needs to transfer the U.S. dollar to the Chinese yuan.
37:32Who are you transferring money for?
37:34For my friend.
37:35So he lives in the U.S.?
37:36No, in China.
37:37In China.
37:39How much money have you helped transfer a total?
37:42$40,000.
37:43$40,000 U.S. dollars?
37:44Yeah.
37:45I'm trying to understand that.
37:46Why was someone in the U.S.?
37:48Uh-huh.
37:48Why is she giving you $40,000 to transfer back to China?
37:53Who is this person to you?
37:55He's my friend.
37:56So you're just helping move money from here back to China?
38:00Yes, just transfer to money.
38:02Okay.
38:03Because right now, I don't think you're being fully honest.
38:06Mm-hmm.
38:08So right now with the questioning, he's already fairly nervous.
38:11His answers are extremely varied, which leads us to believe he's trying to lie about the
38:16real reason why he's transferring money for people.
38:18It does have potential links to things such as money laundering or fraud.
38:23Do you understand the possible penalties for lying to federal officers in the United States?
38:28Mm-hmm.
38:28I know that.
38:29What's the penalty?
38:30Maybe you can...
38:33Me up?
38:33That's one thing, yes.
38:35Yeah.
38:35You could also go to jail for five years in a U.S. prison.
38:38Okay.
38:39I'm going to have you wait back in the same room until we're ready to talk to you later.
38:44Okay?
38:47While the interview is paused, another teen continues to question the man's wife.
38:54She makes a startling admission about their previous trip to the country.
39:00His wife stated that he worked in some capacity on his last entry to the United States.
39:06According to her, he did receive money for some things that he did in the United States.
39:11There are things suggesting, too, that he had an intent to also come back again on this
39:15entry, potentially to do the same thing.
39:19A clear violation of his B-2 tourist visa means only one thing.
39:26You'll be expeditiously removed on the first available flight.
39:30You were barred from reentering the United States for a period of five years from date of removal.
39:36Do you understand?
39:37From now.
39:38Yeah.
39:38So, do you understand?
39:41Yeah, I understand.
39:46Good.
39:47Give it a couple seconds.
39:50All right.
39:51Good.
39:51Next.
39:51Because of the evidence, his lack of reservations, his lack of ability to truly describe what he
39:57did on the last trip, he was refused entry to the United States today.
40:00He is going to be banned for five years.
40:04As for the suspicions of money laundering, Officer Nix will turn over his findings.
40:10There are further concerns we have as well, but those we're going to address with probably
40:15another agency to process but possible further actions against him in the future.
40:21The couple will be put on the first flight departing for China.
40:25Whenever we are able to refuse entry to people who are coming for derogatory reasons, whether
40:32that's, again, terrorism or fraud or illegal activities, criminal activities, it always
40:38gives me a great feeling to go home and knowing that I actually helped protect our country and
40:42at the end of the day, fulfilled my job, my duty to protect our country.
40:53We'll be right back.
41:17We'll be right back.
41:22We'll be right back.
41:28We'll be right back.
41:29We'll be right back.
41:30We'll be right back.
41:31Gracias.
