Migrant shot dead by Arizona rancher was cartel drug smuggler, says ex Border Patrol chief

DMUK: The migrant shot dead by an Arizona rancher on his land last month was likely a cartel drug smuggler or scout, according to a former Border Patrol chief, who says the area is known for ‘violence’. 

George Alan Kelly, 73, was arrested on charges of first degree murder for shooting Gabriel Cuen-Butimea on January 30 at his home. That charge has now been downgraded to a second degree murder charge. 

He denies the murder, insisting he only ever fired warning shots when he saw what he perceived to be a gang of cartel smugglers on his land.  

Former Border Patrol Chief Rodney Scott, who was previously a supervisor in the area, told NewsNation that the area has a ‘propensity for violence’. 

‘Everything that I have seen, my professional experience would tell me that that guy was either a scout or an actual guide for a group.

‘With the radio, [it’s] much more likely he was actually scouting out in advance, or the front-man, but that type of activity and behavior doesn’t take place out there unless it’s part of the cartel,’ he said.  MORE
