News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

Two illegal immigrants found dead

U.S. Border Patrol agents found the body of 40-year-old man from Oaxaca, Mexico, on Tuesday on the Tohono O'odham Nation.

And a scientist found the body of another Oaxaca resident Sunday while attempting to photograph jaguars in the Coronado National Forest.

In Tuesday's incident, two illegal immigrants flagged down a Border Patrol vehicle on Route 15 south of Casa Grande on the Tohono O'odham Nation. They said they'd left behind someone on the trail who had become ill, said Supervisory Border Patrol Agent Jesus Rodriguez. Agents retraced the men's journey and found the man dead, he said.

Tribal police investigated and said the man may have been diabetic. They found needles and insulin in his backpack, Rodriguez said.
