In Arizona, a rare murder trial has begun for Border Patrol agent Lonnie Swartz, who has been indicted on second-degree murder charges for the 2012 shooting of 16-year-old José Antonio Rodríguez. Agent Lonnie Swartz killed the unarmed Mexican teenager by firing through the border fence from the U.S. side. The teen was walking unarmed on the sidewalk in Nogales, Sonora. An autopsy shows he was shot 10 times in his head and back.
