NEW: One of the San Diego Padres’ top prospects self-deported to Mexico after pleading guilty to human smuggling charges, Jennie Taer reports.

Border Patrol agents caught Humberto Cruz, who came legally to the US, in October transporting two Mexican illegal immigrants at the Arizona border. He was offered $1,000 for each person he picked up at different locations through pin drops sent to his phone by an unknown contact.

The Padres signed Cruz, the right-handed pitcher from Mexico, in February 2024 for a $750,000 bonus.

Cruz, 19, later pleaded guilty to accessory after the fact to improper entry and expressed “sincere regret for a recent lapse in judgment that has caused disappointment to many people I deeply respect,” he said in a statement issued by the Padres.

Yesterday was day one of the 30th Annual Police Unity Tour. However, it holds even greater significance for the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department riders, as it includes a powerful stop at the memorial of Sergeant Christopher M. Bracks. Not only was he one of our own, but he was also a fellow rider who lost his life during this very ride while honoring fallen officers.

Sergeant Bracks was more than a member of the Department; he was part of the Police Unity Tour family. He rode with purpose, honoring the fallen and supporting the survivors left behind. Although his life was cut short, his impact continues to live on through every rider who carries his memory forward.

Chapter 7 riders stopped not only to remember him, but also to reflect on what this ride truly represents: sacrifice, brotherhood, healing, and the commitment to ensuring that those we have lost are never forgotten. Sergeant Bracks died with purpose, and his legacy continues to inspire every mile of this journey.

A special thank you to Patrolmen Paul Murphy and Tim Althamer, along with the other representatives from the Delaware Township Police Department and the Hunterdon County Policemen’s Benevolent Association Local 188, for your response to the tragic event and your continued unwavering support.💙
