This was just down the road from the 2003 incident near Chubby's on Hwy 59.
Nineteen illegal immigrants baked to death in the back of a tractor-trailer headed from the Mexican border to Houston on May 14, 2003. When the driver finally stopped to see what was happening to his human cargo, he was outside a truck stop called Chubby’s near Victoria, Texas.
I'm trying not to think about the sheer numbers of trucks hauling human cargo that go by daily without incident. It sickens me.
I do feel for the loss of life, but someone needs to post a sign at the border that reads "Enter at own peril".
