Officials have confirmed that illegal immigrants apprehended in the new military zone President Donald Trump’s administration recently established in Texas’ Hidalgo and Cameron Counties are expected to be processed by U.S. Customs and Border Protection, which could lead to trespassers facing up to 18th months in prison.

This area will be administered as part of Joint Base San Antonio, Texas.”
