They were under employed in the construction industry where work in the San Diego County area was scarce. They needed a breakthrough and a chance conversation at a friend's birthday party about quick money lead the best friends on a journey that they could have never imagined. Little could they have known that their meeting at a rest stop overlooking the California-Mexican border would not only bring untold wealth, but would tear one of their families apart and threaten their very lives.
