Coyote Bros: How Hard-Partying College Kids Became Immigrant Smugglers

 

Three friends and a team of frat brothers plus a stripper, an ex-army ranger, a door-to-door salesman and a go-go dancer made a fortune on the most heavily patrolled stretch of highway in Texas

 

Stephen Sluyter was lounging on his leather couch, taking bong hits and watching the Cartoon Network, when his phone rang. โ€œBro, you hungry?โ€ his best friend and roommate Max Bocanegra asked on the other end of the line. โ€œI got some beans for you. I need you to get them right now.โ€

 

Sluyter was a 28-year-old graduate student at Texas A&M โ€“ Corpus Christi, and founder of its Kappa Sigma fraternity chapter, famous for the slip-and-slide parties and oil-wrestling events that Sluyter helped organize. โ€œDid you see the movie Old School?โ€ he asks. โ€œI did that in real life. I was the real Godfather.โ€ Over the previous six months, he and Max had also built one of the most unlikely human smuggling rings in Texas history. Through Sluyterโ€™s connections at A&M, they had recruited a small army of mostly white, college-age kids looking for extra cash and adventure. During the summer of 2012, Max estimates, the team was smuggling as many as 40 to 50 immigrants a week โ€” at $500 a head. โ€œI was making so much money,โ€ Max says. โ€œI didnโ€™t have to give a fuck.โ€
