MEDELLÍN, Colombia—Anderson Giraldo delivered a smooth sales pitch to migrants, peddling clandestine trips across open sea or thick jungle like vacation packages.
In audio and video clips on social media, he sold himself and his partners as trusted guides to clients who angled to get into the U.S. “I run this group in charge of all the routes,” Giraldo said in one audio recording heard by The Wall Street Journal.
“Everyone knows my work.
I do it right.
I’m serious, sincere and very responsible.”
