GRAND TURK, Turks and Caicos Islands, CMC– Immigration authorities here say they are investigating the escape of at least a dozen Cubans, who mysteriously arrived in Miami in what is believed to be a human trafficking ring. lara Gardiner, of the Turks and Caicos’ Ministry of Immigration and Border Control, confirmed that authorities are conducting the probe but did not know when the inquiry would be completed. Authorities said the Miami arrivals include the mother and other relatives of Oakland Athletics outfielder Yoenis Cespedes, who told reporters he was delighted after seeing his mother for the first time since he defected in 2011.
