Friday, April 25, 2025 - U.S. tech billionaire, Elon Musk has reacted to the arrest of former Doña Ana County Magistrate Judge Joel Cano and his wife, Nancy Cano, who were taken into custody on Thursday, April 26, for allegedly harboring an illegal migrant affiliated with a notorious gang.
Posting on his X (formerly Twitter) account, Musk called the
incident a “ridiculously obvious case of judicial corruption,” adding that
while most judicial corruption is severe, it often goes unnoticed
“This is a
ridiculously obvious case of judicial corruption.
The vast majority of judicial corruption is just as severe, but not as
obvious,” Musk wrote.
According to Fox News, the Canos face charges of evidence
tampering after allegedly housing Cristhian Ortega-Lopez, an undocumented
migrant suspected to be a member of Venezuela’s violent Tren de Aragua gang.
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem
stated:
“Under
President Trump, we have arrested over 150,000 illegal aliens—including more
than 600 members of the vicious Tren de Aragua gang. If you are here illegally
and break the law, we will hunt you down, arrest you, and lock you up. That’s a
promise.”
The investigation revealed that Ortega-Lopez was initially
hired by Nancy Cano for home repair work before being allowed to live in the
couple’s guesthouse. Authorities say they discovered gang-related clothing,
tattoos, voicemails, and text messages linking him to Tren de Aragua.
Court records state that Ortega-Lopez unlawfully entered the
United States on December 15, 2023, through Eagle Pass, Texas, without
inspection or legal authorization.
