Trump Is Building Tent Courts Along The Border. Here's What They Look Like. Video Visual Investigations NYT 29 August 2019
Tent courthouses are the administration’s latest move in its “Remain in Mexico” policy, forcing asylum seekers to wait in one of Mexico’s most dangerous states until their hearings.
We track the tents’ expansion through satellite imagery — and explain how they could make the asylum process even harder.

How Walls Ended Up Along the U.S.-Mexico Border Video NYT News The New York Times 25 July 2019
The border between the U.S. and Mexico has long been marked by barriers.
But they weren’t always about deterring immigration.
Here’s how the modern border came to be, starting with the year 1848.

Hear the Words of Detained Migrant Children NYT 18 July 2019
Hear the Words of Detained Migrant Children Video NYT Opinion The New York Times 18 July 2019
In the video Op-Ed above, children read testimonies given by young migrants detained in Customs and Border Protection facilities.
They reveal harrowing stories of children living in cages, going hungry and tending to infants without their parents.
Border Patrol has been detaining thousands of children, sometimes for weeks, in conditions no child anywhere should suffer.
At a June hearing before a federal appeals court, judges were stunned by the administration’s arguments that these children were kept in “safe and sanitary” facilities, as required by the Flores Settlement.
The overcrowding, long stays and inhumane, possibly illegal living conditions are a result of the Trump administration’s cruel immigration policies and mismanagement of the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees the border agency.
Barring exceptional circumstances, the legal limit for Border Patrol to detain children is 72 hours.
The agency is then supposed to transfer children to the custody of the Office of Refugee Resettlement for a maximum of 20 days.
But the resettlement office has been keeping children far longer, creating a backlog across the entire system.
As a result, Border Patrol centers have not been quickly processing unaccompanied children and migrant families, who have recently been crossing the border in record-breaking numbers.
Detained children provided the testimonies read in this video to lawyers who visited Border Patrol centers as part of an ongoing investigation of detention facilities.

Minors separated from parents and detained at US border tell of anguish Video G 2 July 2018
Eddy, 17, and Lilian, nine, were separated from their mother at the US border on 19 May.
The family was fleeing violence in Guatemala – only to be ripped apart under the Trump administration’s 'zero-tolerance' immigration policy.
Eddy and Lilian's mother was prosecuted and sent to the T Don Hutto immigration detention centre in central Texas.
For five weeks, she had no idea where her two children were.
They had been left behind at a processing centre and then flown to foster care in Grand Rapids, Michigan – where they were held in separate homes. YouTube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9apPQVxc26M

Donald Trump has signed an executive order ending the separation of children and parents who cross the southern US border illegally.
The children were detained while their parents faced legal proceedings.
While they waited for their parents to be released, the children were put into inhospitable detention centres furnished with metal cages and concrete floors.
Audio recordings released by a charity reveal the distress many children were, and are, experiencing in the centres

At least 2,000 children in the US have been separated from their families since April as they crossed the border.
President Trump is facing heavy criticism over the "zero-tolerance" policy, under which adults who try to cross the border, many planning to seek asylum, are placed in custody and face criminal prosecution for illegal entry.
As a result, hundreds of minors are now being housed in detention centres, and kept away from their parents.

The Killing Fields of Texas - Beyond the Border part one Video The Guardian 13 August 2014
Thousands of immigrants have died on the ranches of Brooks County, Texas.
Most of the deaths occur while migrants are trying to circumvent the US Border Patrol’s inland checkpoint and hike through rugged ranch lands.
Some ranchers are taking up arms to fight back against the influx of migrants, while others are setting up water stations and trying to save their lives. However, as temperatures rise and the humanitarian crisis continues, the deaths are at an all-time high.

As consul, she was in charge of sending the remains of Guatemalan migrants found on the ranches of Brooks County back to their families.

Nobody deserves to die like this | Beyond the Border Pt.4 Video The Guardian 27 August 2014
Whenever ranchers in rural Brooks County, 70 miles north of the Mexican border, find a body, which is often these days, they call the Brooks County Sheriff's Office.
Chief Deputy Urbino “Benny” Martinez and his deputies are tasked with recovering the growing number of dead, and placing them in Department of Homeland Security-issued body bags – black bags for the recently dead, white for skeletal remains.
The sight and smell of the dead can linger with you for days. It can give you nightmares if you let it.
Recovering human remains in the heat of a South Texas summer is not for the faint-hearted.
