Bodies of 4 Migrants Found in Arizona as Trial of Humanitarian Aid Volunteer Wraps Up

HeadlineMay 09, 2019

In Arizona, humanitarian aid volunteers recovered four sets of human remains as they searched for a missing migrant in the western desert of Arizona near the U.S.-Mexico border. The group No More Deaths found the bodies over the weekend as they searched for a man who was last seen with badly blistered feet, vomiting blood. The group says it carried out the search after the Border Patrol refused to initiate a rescue. This comes as a federal court in Tucson wrapped up three days of testimony in the trial of Scott Daniel Warren, a No More Deaths volunteer who faces misdemeanor charges for leaving food, water, shelter and clothing for migrant border crossers in the same desert region where the group found the bodies.
