Location: Arizona

My latest story for Bloomberg Businessweek, on cartel-backed groups who are using social media to recruit drivers to smuggle migrants who've already crossed the US-Mexico border illegally, taking them deeper into the United States, just published today. Please take a moment to read the full story, by Julia Love, here.

Many thanks to Donna Cohen for commissioning me to photograph this story!
