Man arrested for deadly immigrant smuggling operation that killed Romanian family of four and his own brother
A dual U.S.-Canadian citizen was arrested last month for his alleged role in an attempt to smuggle a Romanian family of four into the United States, which left them dead, including two young children. Timothy Oakes, 34, from the Akwesasne Mohawk Indian Reservation (AMIR) in Canada, was arrested on June 15 while trying to enter the U.S. via the Massena, New York, port of entry, the Justice Department said. He is charged with conspiring with others to engage in alien smuggling, four counts of alien smuggling for profit, and four counts of alien smuggling resulting in death. He appeared in a federal court on Tuesday and was ordered held. His U.S.-based co-conspirators — Dakota Montour, 31, and Kawisiiostha Celecia Sharrow, 43, both of Akwesasne-Mohawk, New York, and Janet Terrance, 45, of Hogansburg, New York — have all entered guilty pleas. "Oakes and his co-conspirators profited from a human smuggling operation with a singular, cold-hearted aim: making money by bringing illegal aliens into the United States, regardless of the danger to human life involved," said Matthew Galeotti, head of the Justice Department's Criminal Division. "Their greed resulted in the deaths of a mother, a father, and two small children, as well as one of the defendants' own brothers." Oakes smuggled illegal immigrants from Canada into northern New York using boats to get across the St. Lawrence River, federal prosecutors said. He earned $1,000 per person, authorities said. In March 2023, Oakes housed a Romanian family of four, together with other aliens, for about 24 hours before allegedly taking them on his boat in an attempt to illegally bring them into the U.S. Oakes, his brother Casey, and the Romanian family were on the vessel when it capsized, killing the family, including two children under the age of 3, and his brother. "Two toddler-aged children and their parents were the tragic victims of an alien smuggling attempt gone horribly wrong," said Chief Patrol Agent Robert Garcia of the U.S. Border Patrol's Swanton Sector. "Their deaths were a direct result of callous smugglers who exploited the vulnerable." Terrance, Montour, and Sharrow admitted in their plea agreements that they were employed to illegally transport the Romanian family — a mother, father, 1-year-old boy, and 2-year-old girl — from Canada into New York. Montour admitted that he was aware of the dangerous weather conditions on the day of the smuggling attempt — high winds, freezing temperatures, and limited visibility, the Justice Department said.

Nonprofit worker arrested after allegedly smuggling drugs into Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall
Police arrested a nonprofit worker on Monday after he allegedly smuggled drugs into Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall. The Los Angeles County Probation Department said investigators arrested Alejandro Lopez inside the facility after staffers noticed him engaged in suspicious activity. Investigators found more than 170 white pills on him, according to LA County Probation. Lopez worked for the nonprofit tutoring company StudentNest, probation officials said. "This type of behavior is unacceptable and represents a clear threat to the safety and well-being of the youth and staff in our institutions," Chief Probation Officer Guillermo Viera Rosa said. Police booked Lopez with possession of a controlled substance and child endangerment. "To say I'm horrified and disappointed is an understatement," said LA County Supervisor Janice Hahn. "We have an incredible duty and opportunity with the young people in our custody at Los Padrinos, to care for them and provide the environment they need to thrive." In May, LA County Probation officials announced plans to depopulate Los Padrinos following years of controversy. Last year, a state inspector deemed Los Padrinos "unsuitable" after staff could not stem the flow of drugs, failed to bring the juvenile prisoners to medical appointments and did not prevent retaliation against inmates who filed grievances. At the time, Attorney General Rob Bonta said LA County "utterly failed" to provide safety to the juvenile hall prisoners last year. Months later, he announced charges against 30 correction officers for allegedly enabling "gladiator fights" at the facility. According to Bonta's Office, the charged officers allowed and sometimes encouraged 69 fights at Los Padrinos between July 1, 2023, and December 31, 2023. State prosecutors said 143 kids between the ages of 12 and 18 were beaten during those six months. "If someone hired to provide services to our incarcerated youth is able to allegedly smuggle hundreds of illicit pills into this facility and endanger their health and chance at rehabilitation, we are failing miserably," Hahn said. "We need answers about how this was allowed to happen. Yet again, it's clear that something in the culture at Los Padrinos is not working."
