Lavish trips to and designer clothing for a federal border agent's wife were allegedly funded by his suspected membership of a Mexican drug cartel, sources told DailyMail.com.
Prosecutors allege Manuel Perez Jr., an agent with US Customs and Border Protection (CBP) in El Paso, , had been bankrolled to the tune of $300,000 to $400,000 a year by 'La Linea,' the armed wing of the Juarez drug cartel, reported.
In stunning court testimony, Perez was accused of getting paid to let illegal immigrants and drugs into the US, but also of being a member of the cartel that was paying him, federal prosecutors alleged during a hearing last week.
