Deaths in Border Patrol Sector Set to Smash Record as Three Bodies Found in Desert
The number of deaths in U.S. Border Patrol’s (USBP) El Paso Sector is on pace to shatter a record as agents located three more bodies in the desert, according to reports.
Last Monday, agents from Santa Teresa Station found three deceased persons who are assumed to have illegally crossed the border between New Mexico and Mexico.
Those deaths brought this year’s total to 138 in El Paso Sector, USBP told Border Report.
A new annual high was set last year as 149 people perished in the sector, which covers West Texas and New Mexico.
El Paso Sector Chief Anthony Good frequently shares photographs and details about rescues of illegal aliens in his sector, where temperatures regularly top 100 degrees during the summer.
“Lordsburg BP Agents collaborated w/ AMO to rescue migrants in medical distress that had depleted their water supply while traversing rugged terrain. Migrants were extracted off the mountain safely,” Chief Good wrote in a post on Wednesday.
“El Paso Sector is seeing an increase in heat and dehydration injuries and fatalities among migrants attempting illegal crossings,” Chief Good reported in early July.
