South American Criminals Target Rich Athletes’ Homes Nationwide

The Biden administration’s lax immigration policies have unleashed a crisis at the southern border, and its consequences extend far beyond those living in border states. Even professional athletes, who one might assume are insulated from such issues due to their wealth and fame, have found themselves impacted.

As reported earlier by The Gateway Pundit, a recent ICE report has shed light on the severe repercussions of the Biden-Harris regime’s disastrous open border approach and the unhindered flow of gang members across the border.

According to a report from ICE’s Deputy Director Patrick Lechleitner, sent to Congressman Tony Gonzalez, the national docket of ICE currently includes a staggering 662,000 illegal immigrants with criminal histories.

More alarmingly, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is tracking over 425,000 illegal immigrants convicted of various crimes, and another 226,000 face pending criminal charges – all of whom have been released into the United States due to the regime’s lenient immigration enforcement policies.

Now, the NFL has cautioned its players about a “transnational crime ring,” suspected to be linked to South America, that is believed to be responsible for numerous burglaries targeting athletes’ homes.

NFL Media’s Tom Pelissero reported that the league sent a memo to team security and players union officials, warning them about the crime spree and suggesting measures to protect themselves and their families.

Per NFL.com:

“The NFL issued a security alert to team security directors and the players’ union Wednesday about organized and skilled criminals that are increasingly targeting the homes of professional athletes, including the recent burglaries of Kansas City Chiefs stars Patrick Mahomes and Travis Kelce, according to the memo obtained by NFL.com.”

“Sources say the FBI is investigating the crime wave as international organized crime. The league, the NFL Players Association and team security forces also have been monitoring the crime spree, which is believed to be tied to a South American crime syndicate. At least one other current NFL player’s home was burglarized in the past week.”

“It’s legit,” said one source familiar with the situation. “It’s a transnational crime ring, and over the last three weeks, they’ve focused on NBA and NFL players, and it’s all over the country.”
