The female officer spared the children and made effort to get them safe transportation home. But the adults had no documentation and admitted being from Mexico.
How long is this going on? The Turner Falls area has long been a popular attraction for the Latino community, but most Oklahoman's believed they're largely Texans who came up from Dallas and surrounding areas. The Chickasaw National Wildlife Area is a national park. The National Park rangers are tasked with keeping order. Officer Boss states in the video that she came earlier and gave a verbal warning about very loud music which other park visitors complained about. She says that when she returned a 2nd time, she saw liquor (which is banned in all national parks). When she began to cite them with the infractions, she found out that they only had Mexican IDs. That's when she (as a federal law enforcement officer) had to also enforce federal immigration laws, against those who also violated other federal laws. We're trying to find out what process the federal rangers applied to this case? Were deportations actually ordered? Or did the rangers simply kick them out of the park and forget about the incident? Predictably, many are crying 'racism'. |

The person who posted this video to social media, included a caption which we had Google give us a translation for...
"The family informed us through this video what happened, they give their statement that they were eating and listening to music and arrived the #security agents of little Niagara Fallas Davis Oklahoma. And he asked for the #papers that if we were illegal we couldn't be here. And they went down to the music that because there was no club they said nowhere had seen a #sign where I said you couldn't listen to music or drink beer.. the family says it's unfair as they tried just for being Hispanic. Remembered you the video and leave your comment #news, #info, #news"
The famous Turner Falls & swimming hole, is just minutes away from this national park.
Turner Falls, itself; is a municipal park which is part of the city of Davis, OK. The park is known to be almost perpetually overcrowded.
