00:00I was wondering if you're seeking to deport the six illegal aliens who are here or charge them first and then seek to deport them. I know there's been a number of high profile arrests you guys have made where you've made the decision to just go after deportation versus criminal trial reform.
00:16This guy is the leader. He's the number one guy. And I want them to stay in our prisons as long as possible. I have no desire to send them back to Mexico because they were coming across our border illegally. No longer will they be able to do that. But the amount of drugs, the amount of money, the amount of weapons, most of these individuals, if convicted, will remain in American prisons.
00:43Perhaps Alcatraz.
00:45Mary Margaret, David Weyer.
00:48Thank you, Attorney General Bodney. Can you give us more information on some of these individuals up there? And can you also share whether you've had any success in getting the Mexican government to help you extradite any of these cartel members?
01:03We will be hopefully working with them on one soon. But yes, Mexico has been cooperating in the past. I think we extradited 29 here to our country to face charges when some of the top cartel members in our nation's history, some of the worst of the worst.
01:23And we brought them here. One, in fact, is that the Kiki Camarena, right? One, I can't think of his name. He killed Rafael, yeah. He killed Kiki Camarena, a DEA agent in the 80s. And Kiki Camarena's widow and son family had been trying to get this guy back since the 80s and could not do it.
01:46And President Trump, working hand in hand with Mexico, was able to get him back to this country. And we spoke to Kiki Camarena's widow and son, and they were both in tears. His son is now a judge.
02:01And his son had his father's handcuffs and had them engraved. And I think at some point, that monster who tortured and murdered his father will be wearing those handcuffs. But he's now in American custody, along with, I think, 28 others that we were able to extradite with President Trump working with Mexico to stop this, really, reign of terror and this poison coming into our country.
