King Ranch lies between the Rio Grande Valley and inland Texas

 Washington Times:

At King Ranch, migrant waves are threatening a Texas institution 

It has weathered droughts, wars, booms and busts - but may not survive the Biden administration

There has been a Border Patrol station on the highway that runs through the ranch from the Rio Grande Valley.  I have been waved through it many times.  Illegals try to bypass it by wandering through the ranch and with the glut of illegals under Biden there are more trespassers through the ranch and other Texas ranches.

On a recent tour of the Rio Grande Valley, the Texas Public Policy Foundation’s Border Security Coalition learned of the sprawling ranch’s new challenges. They range from migrants traveling through the property on foot—often with fatal consequences, in a land that was once known as the Wild Horse Desert for its inhospitality, to cars, trucks and vans attempting to evade law enforcement by driving through fences, gates and even bar ditches. Sometimes, the heat from their catalytic converters causes brush fires—fires that can quickly spread.

Then there are the bailouts, as they’re known—the men and women who wreck their vehicles in their flight or get bogged down in the brush, cacti and nearly impassible mesquite trees. If they’re able, they attempt to flee on foot. They don’t get far—if they’re lucky. Being found quickly by King Ranch security or any local constable or sheriff personnel at least means they stand a chance of surviving. Far too many are recovered only after they’ve succumbed to the heat. King Ranch workers—who are still known, as they were in the 1830s, as los kineños—regularly find corpses, though sometimes they’re merely skeletons.

One division of the ranch is almost entirely within Brooks County—the South Texas county with the highest number of migrant deaths. Last November, Sheriff Benny Martinez reported 108 corpses had been found in Brooks County scrublands in 2021 alone—not including 10 migrants who died in a car wreck.

This is a by-product of Biden's open borders policy. 

BTW, I had one of my biggest trials in Kingsville near the Ranch.  It involved three navy pilots who had been POWs in Vietnam and were swindled out of their back pay by a Bond dealer in Florida.  One of the jurors was a King Ranch foreman.  We won that case and the defendants received the maximum sentence.
