ALABAMA - Recent cases of abuse towards migrants and asylum seekers by U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers, Border Patrol agents and even members of the Texas National Guard have raised concerns of a more systemic problem across the Southwest border.
Last month, the case in which Border Patrol agents declined to cut through the border wall between Arizona and Mexico to rescue a man who had fallen onto the south side of the wall added to the discussion on whether or not law enforcement is responsible for abuses towards migrants crossing the border.
