Video reveals US border patrol agents responsible for causing teen’s death

Border patrol agents ordered a teenager to drink liquid methamphetamine,
which resulted in his death, and later provided false testimonies to avoid criminal charges.
Although the U.S. government has agreed to pay the teen’s family $1 million due to a wrongful death lawsuit,
both border patrol agents responsible for causing the 16-year-old’s death
never received disciplinary actions or any other form of punishment for their actions.





Standing before CBP officers Valerie Baird and Adrian Perallon,
Velazquez watched as Baird opened his bag and retrieved two plastic bottles containing a suspicious liquid with a strange color.
Instead of immediately conducting a field test,
Baird gave one of the bottles back to Velazquez and appeared to tell him to drink the liquid.
Although the video did not capture any audio,
Baird’s right hand briefly gestured toward the bottle before using the universal sign for “drink.”

According to their depositions under oath, Baird and Perallon denied telling Velazquez to drink the liquid meth
while blaming the teen for causing his own death.
But the recently released footage revealed that the officers ordered the teen to drink from the bottle four times,
which resulted in his death less than two hours later.

After Velazquez took his first two sips of the liquid,
Baird and Perallon clearly exchanged glances while laughing at the distraught teen.
Appearing to order Velazquez to take two more sips,
the border patrol agents continued their mocking laughter
as the teen acquiesced to their commands.

“I never asked him to. He volunteered to, and I believe I gestured to him to go ahead,”
Perallon falsely stated under oath on May 10, 2016.

Within minutes of drinking the highly concentrated liquid methamphetamine,
Velazquez began sweating profusely as his body temperature increased to 105 degrees.
With his heart racing, the teenager screamed incoherently before uttering sentence fragments:
“son quimicos” and “mi corazon” and “mi hermana.”

They were chemicals. My heart. My sister.

According to the footage, the CBP officers waited 35 minutes after the initial drink
before finally calling the paramedics.
CBP Officer Nina Signorello later testified that Baird had been worried about losing her job minutes after the incident.
Signorello testified, “Baird said, ‘Oh my God, I asked him to drink it.’”

“He’s a 16-year-old boy with all the immaturity and bad judgment that might be characteristic of any 16-year-old kid,”

“It’s obvious that they suspected from the beginning that it’s meth.
Playing a cruel joke on a child is not something that’s justifiable in any way.
They have test kits available that would’ve given results in two to three minutes.”

What kind of fool drinks liquid meth? Case would have more validity if the LEOs actually forced it down his throat. But this moron drank it willingly. If a LEO asks you to drink drain cleaner, then you refrain.
