I have a little experience with the Mexican legal system. Bottom line. YOu NEVER want to be in jail there, especially on the border. It is totally corrupt. One better be well armed with money. The police expect it. ONe wrong move and you will be paying to stay out.

I was told by a Mexican Police officer, if you ever hit a person while driving in Mexico, dont try to help, dont stay at the scene, immediately drive to the border and get out. An executive and his wife from San Antonio were both raped in a Mexican Jail not too long ago. The Dog would probably not be treated kindly in a border jail.

Thank God I live in this country. Mexico, which does not have an awful human abuse record, has a horrible legal system. Payola. and even then you may still get raped.
