13. They go over the walls too.

Where the walls are 26 feet high, there are experts in scaling them.
Of course there are also the air cannons that lob marijuana bales
over border fences.

That's why the Trumpists want the new wall to be 40 feet high.

A ladder has been used, tunnels, someone simply blew up a section.

Plus there is good old fashioned bribing the guards.
