Every year, hundreds of immigrants are dying horrible deaths along the U.S. border. They battle against dehydration, intense heat of Arizona deserts, and the dangerous desert roads, and many lose the fight to stay alive and die from heat stroke. Last year, the U.S. Border Patrol found 463 dead bodies of those trying to get across the border—a 42.5 percent jump from 2004.

Deaths on the Border
Every year, hundreds of immigrants are dying horrible deaths along the U.S. border. They battle against dehydration, intense heat of Arizona deserts, and the dangerous desert roads, and many lose the fight to stay alive and die from heat stroke. Last year, the U.S. Border Patrol found 463 dead bodies of those trying to get across the border—a 42.5 percent jump from 2004.

Berta Alicia de la Rosa, an official for a Mexican agency working to cut migrant deaths, described these kinds of deaths as “like slowly cooking your body and your brain.

Ceci est un média alternatif de publication ouverte. Le collectif CMAQ, qui gère la validation des contributions sur le Indymedia-Québec, n'endosse aucunement les propos et ne juge pas de la véracité des informations. Ce sont les commentaires des Internautes, comme vous, qui servent à évaluer la qualité de l'information. Nous avons néanmoins une Politique éditoriale , qui essentiellement demande que les contributions portent sur une question d'émancipation et ne proviennent pas de médias commerciaux.

This is an alternative media using open publishing. The CMAQ collective, who validates the posts submitted on the Indymedia-Quebec, does not endorse in any way the opinions and statements and does not judge if the information is correct or true. The quality of the information is evaluated by the comments from Internet surfers, like yourself. We nonetheless have an Editorial Policy , which essentially requires that posts be related to questions of emancipation and does not come from a commercial media.
