Border Patrol Impunity on Display

from The Raid · host John Carlos Frey

A Tucson Sector Border Patrol agent has been indicted on 29 felony charges including ten counts of child sex trafficking. But the case of Bart Conrad Yager isn't just about one agent. It's about a federal agency that had warning signs more than a decade ago and looked away. In this episode, John Carlos Frey breaks down the Yager indictment, the 2014 rape allegation CBP never investigated, and a mounting pattern of sexual misconduct cases against CBP employees. With oversight mechanisms weakening and hiring surges accelerating, Frey asks the question no one at DHS wants to answer: who else fell through the cracks?  https://tucson.com/news/local/border/article_5e596767-4575-485b-88e8-0a6265e5bb41.html  https://www.kjzz.org/fronteras-desk/2025-07-23/former-tucson-border-patrol-agent-indicted-on-10-counts-of-child-sex-trafficking-other-felonies  https://theraidpodcast.org/ Disclaimer: The statements and opinions expressed by the host or participants on this program are solely their own and do not necessarily represent those of the distributor of the program and any person or entity affiliated with said distributor ("distributor's affiliates").  The distributor and distributor's affiliates are not responsible for, and shall not be liable for, the statements and opinions expressed by the host or participants, or for any content that appears on the program.    Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
