Mexico will ask U.S. prosecutors to pursue criminal investigations into the deaths of 17 Mexican citizens killed during immigration operations or while in federal custody since President Donald Trump returned to office, President Claudia Sheinbaum confirmed.
The formal complaints mark Mexico's strongest response to date over fatalities linked to the administration's immigration enforcement campaign. Fourteen Mexican nationals have died in Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody, while three others were killed during enforcement operations, according to the Mexican government.
