Four illegal immigrants from Chile were arrested earlier this month for their suspected role in the December break-in at NFL star Joe Burrow’s Ohio mansion.

As reported by TMZ., the arrests, made on January 10, expose yet another troubling example of how unchecked illegal immigration allows international criminals to prey on law-abiding citizens.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (9) looks to make a pass during the 2nd quarter during Monday Night Football at AT&T Stadium in Arlington,Texas on Monday, December 9, 2024.

Court documents reveal that during a traffic stop in Ohio, police discovered evidence tying the suspects to the December 9 burglary.

Among the items found were an LSU shirt and a Bengals ballcap believed to have been stolen from Burrow’s property.

Investigators also seized Husky automatic center punch tools, often used by the South American Theft Group to shatter glass and gain access to homes.

Cellphone data provided another smoking gun: one of the suspects’ devices was traced to Burrow’s residence during the burglary.

The four men—identified as Alexander Chavez, Bastian Morales, Jordan Sanchez, and Sergio Cabello—are either in the U.S. illegally or have overstayed their visas.

While none of them have been charged with burglary at this time, they face multiple felonies, including possession of criminal tools and participation in a criminal gang.

This is no isolated incident. Reports have highlighted how international theft rings take advantage of weak border enforcement and exploit America’s generosity to fund their criminal operations.

These four suspects are scheduled to appear in court today, where justice will hopefully be swift and firm.

Burrow, beloved by fans for leading the Cincinnati Bengals on and off the field, spoke briefly after the break-in. On December 11, he told reporters that he felt “violated” by the crime.

Olivia Ponton, a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model and friend of Burrow’s, reported the break-in to police but has declined to comment further.

This case serves as a wake-up call to secure our borders and protect American communities from international criminals. Americans deserve leaders who will prioritize law enforcement and prevent incidents like these from becoming the norm.
