11/13/2004: Girl in Pinata

U.S. Customs & Border Protection inspectors at the Tecate Port of Entry in California discovered a little girl meticulously sealed inside a piñata, on November 2, 2004. A girl of approximately 4 or 5 years of age, her mother curled up inside the car's trunk, and the girl's brother, who is about 9 years old, was found underneath the collapsible back seat. All were voluntarily deported to Mexico. The large piñata carrying the little girl appeared to be a representation of a 'Powerpuff Girls' cartoon character.

Crazy world we live in, is all I gotta say here.

If it weren't so awful it would be funny....I hope I'm never inside a pinata.....I am curious, I wonder how many people would pitch in to make that happen though? Heck of a party.

Obligatory inapprorpriate comment: Child molester party favor.

At least they are sending them back rather than provisionally welcoming them into the country and letting them disappear prior to their 'official deportation hearing.'

She's lucky she didn't suffocate.......or barf. :smack:

Yes, but if her flight got delayed, she could have survived for a while on the candy ...

She's lucky she didn't get sued into the poor house for copyright infringement.

By beating it with sticks? :stickpoke

So wrong, made juice come out my nose, damn you.

A little smarter than the last big immigration story.
A few months ago they found several illegals in a shipping container (made of steel w/ padlocked doors, locked on the outside). Only problem is - they didn't open the container for weeks after its arrival. At least this little girl could have gotten out on her own.
The pinata should have been made to look like a huge anvil or some type of "dead" weight, which is what they would have probably been had they not been deported.
Someone tell the girl she's busted so she'll get her ass out of there and get the hell out of "Our Yard"..................................
:mad:

Maybe I'm just sick this way, but my first reaction on seeing the picture was to spit coffee on my monitor.

Makes you wonder if her name was Candy<?>

I'm guessing that she probably was already residing there if she was trying to sneak into the US in a pinata.

They may have caught the person inside the pinata, but did they find the drugs hidden inside the person?

What, like some sort of Russian doll thingie?

Better like Russian Dolls than those goats that dude posted about twice.
