What was said
"A lot of Indians got Indians on my video from Delhi. Fly Delhi, Mexico City, Mexico City, Mexalei. Cartel picks them up at the airport like Epcot Center without the name tags. brings them to the gap in the wall, gives a US phone, get to the US side, dial 911."
Describing a past reporting trip to the Yuma sector, Santenello claims he encountered migrants from India using a route via Mexico, and alleges cartels facilitated their movement to gaps in border barriers. He says the migrants were instructed to call 911 once on the US side so they would be collected by US authorities for processing.
