What would stop you from RVing Mexico?

The Tecate prison is safer than the Mexican prison at La Mesa where he was initially held after Mexican police said he crossed into Mexico with three weapons and several hundred rounds of ammunition. He is being kept in a single cell.

“He’s safer there,” his mother said. “He knows when he goes to bed at night that he won’t be killed. That helps him sleep. And it helps me sleep too.”

His version of events, however, has become muddled because he initially claimed he had never been to Mexico but reporters later discovered he had registered earlier that day in a $24 a-night hotel in downtown Tijuana.

A receipt from the Hotel Nelson, a somewhat historic $20.00 a night “hot sheet” hotel abutting Tijuana’s Zone de Tolerancia” has been uncovered, issued to Andrew Tahmooressi for payment of room rent on room 310 on the afternoon of the day he was arrested for entering Mexico with a fully loaded AR-15 assault style rifle, a chrome plated 1911 model .45 caliber pistol, a 12 ga. shotgun and 457 rounds of ammunition, in addition to extra clips for the pistol and rifle. All loaded and all easily accessible to Tahmooressi.

We later learned from Rep. Duncan Hunter’s office, a California Congressman whose district this occurred in and who never misses an opportunity to bash Mexico, that this was not Tahmooressi’s first time in Mexico nor crossing the border at that spot. The accused finally admitted to having been into Mexico 5 or 6 times to visit “friends” as he was developing a relationship with a woman from the area. Congressman Hunter’s office confirmed at least two previous excursions into Mexico based on bank and cell phone records.
