Sheriff Mark Lamb

I mean, you're at least got, every cartel's gonna have their own pieces of tunnels.

Every smuggler within those cartels has their way of being able to smuggle the product.

You remember, it's not like the cartel ushers these people down themselves.

They have different smuggling units that work for the cartels.

And those guys, well, the money they make is based on their ability to successfully smuggle drugs or people into this country.

And so if you're going to make a ton of money, why would you not put a tunnel in place that would give you the best opportunity to smuggle people and drugs across the border so that you can make the most money?

How are they digging these tunnels?

by hand.

How big are they?

Some of you could take a railroad little box through, which they do.

They're that big.

Most of them are built at least to where somebody, a grown man, could walk in it.

They're probably not built to my height, but many of them are built, they're fortified, just like you would go into a mine and you would see these tunnels.

And some of them are more rudimental.

Some would be just, you know, like you could crawl through it and get to the other side.

Do you have any footage of this stuff?

No.

I mean, there's plenty of footage from Border Patrol and stuff.

In my county, we don't get the tunnels as much because I'm not on the border.

I'm one county off the border.
