Special to El Rrun-Rrun

On November 8, 2022, Cameron County Sheriff's department’s Deputies responded to the Old County Jail in reference to narcotics and contraband found inside a jail cell. 

While conducting a jail cell search, a Jailer noticed at the top of air conditioning unit had been tampered with. Upon further investigation, a plastic bag and a white envelope with a string attached were recovered. Upon searching the bags, a black cell phone, three vape pens, a USB charger and 6 small clear plastic baggies containing a green leafy substance where recovered.

On Thursday, January, 26, 2023, the Cameron County Crime Stoppers received a tip in reference that a jailer, Miguel Limon, that charged he was responsible for smuggling contraband into the Old County Jail Detention Center.

On January 30, 2023, the sheriff's office allege that Limon met with sheriff’s investigators and provided with them with a voluntary statement. 

During the interview, they said Limon stated that while conducting jailer duties at old county Jail, he was offered cash to smuggle school supplies and was paid around $200-$300 dollars to do so. Limon further stated, he delivered packages to several inmates and one time one of the packages contained cocaine.

Upon further investigation, Limon consented for the investigators to search his phone. While searching the phone, investigators found several text messages where he would arrange to smuggle contraband and later got paid by a female. Investigators showed Limon the items recovered on November, 8, 2022 and he confessed to smuggling all the items. Limon admitted to receiving more than $2,000 for smuggling contraband.

With the evidence gathered, Investigators were able to secure arrest warrants for Limon. Limon was arrested and charged with two counts of Abuse of Official Capacity, one count of Prohibited Substance in a Correctional Facility and one count of Contraband in a Correctional Facility.

Limon was transported and booked into Carrizalez-Rucker Detention Center. Investigation is ongoing.

Uuuuuuummmm that's why there is an open records act, ,, buuuutttt for what this moron ERic Garza doesn't need to have that with all the information he releases LMAO!!! that means Laughing MY Ass OFF!!! ERic. You think that the more you post on Facebook and other social media platforms, is making you or your dept. look great? It's not foo, your endangering citizen's, employee's, even informants. PLease someone show him all these blogs and comments. I know he probably doesn't give a shit but still, show him these posts and comments. Maybe he will find the last speck of decency in what's left of him so that he doesn't run for Sheriff again. Sooo many employee's gone cuz of him and his former Mr. I'm a retired federal agent.

This loser could have at least used the money from his profits to get a hair cut. But maybe he can get a free one at taxpayers expense.

Why Angel is not liked in Transport? Or SIu? Or K9s? Don't you ever ask yourself that Eric? People like him are drowning you, maybe his wife's boss Javier Villarreal gets you good money, but youre loosing the little support you have from the employees

There's more Idiots doing that at the other jails too.Even some that think their big shit. Jailers can't afford fancy SUV and cars and New Houses in Olmito area. It's just a matter of time.
