Disappearances on the Border

A little more on border problems...Mexico implemented a program last June called the System for Identifying Remains and Locating Individuals that is working to locate illegal Mexican immigrants who have crossed the border and are now missing. Mexican foreign relations offices on their soil and here in the United States have been linked to a uniform database to work together to find these people. The issue of disappearing immigrants is a growing problem for the Mexican government. Over the last decade, more than 3,000 migrants died trying to cross the border. At least 1,000 of those people have not yet been identified.
