Background
Andres Enrique Camberos is a San Diego-area businessman who operated several wholesale grocery businesses with his sister, Adriana Isabel Camberos.
The Case
In October 2024, Camberos and his sister were convicted by a federal jury of conspiracy to commit wire and mail fraud and several counts of wire fraud. The siblings ran a "grocery diversion" scheme through their companies, including Baja Exporting. They obtained steep discounts on wholesale consumer goods by falsely promising manufacturers that the items would be exported to Mexico or sold to U.S. correctional facilities and rehabilitation centers. In reality, they resold the products at higher prices to domestic U.S. distributors. The scheme allowed them to reap tens of millions of dollars in profits, which they used to purchase multiple homes in San Diego and luxury vehicles.
The Pardon
On January 15, 2026, President Trump granted Camberos a full pardon.
