“My son never intended to go into Mexico. He missed his last USA exit.” It's been a month since a San Diego mother has heard from her son, who is behind bars in Mexico after accidentally driving through the border crossing with his service weapon.
“He's been charged as a criminal and he's not a criminal,” she said.“These are strictly prohibited and exclusive for armed forces, so even if the gun is registered to his name, even if he had a concealed carry permit with him, that wouldn't be valid in Mexico,” said Fabian Meneses, a criminal defense attorney in Tijuana. “Because you would have to have a permit from the Mexican authorities to have that in Mexico.
This isn't the first time Meneses has dealt with a case like this. In fact, he said it's more common than we may think. “I would say that most of my clients who are arrested for having guns, or ammunition or marijuana are not criminals,” said Meneses. “They're just regular people.”Meneses message: don't assume what is legal in the U.S. is legal in other countries
