U.S. Border Patrol agents have killed 97 people since 2003, including at least six Mexicans on Mexican soil. Democracy Now! traveled to the borderlands of Arizona earlier this month to cover one of these killings: the death of Josi(C) Antonio Elena Rodriguez, who was gunned down by a Border Patrol agent in 2012. We met with Richard Boren of the Border Patrol Victims Network in Nogales, Arizona, at exactly the spot where agent Lonnie Swartz pointed his gun through the border wall to shoot and kill Josi(C) Antonio. At this site, Richard Boren displayed a banner with images of Josi(C) Antonio and other victims of Border Patrol and told us their stories.
