“Humanitarian Aid Is Never a Crime”: No More Deaths Volunteers Drop Water in Desert to Aid Migrants

Democracy Now

Volunteers with the humanitarian aid group No More Deaths have been venturing into the harsh Sonoran Desert for years to leave life-saving supplies for migrants crossing the U.S.-Mexico border. Longtime volunteer Scott Warren was charged with three felonies for the alleged crime of providing food, water and shelter to migrants. After a hung jury, he is facing retrial on two felony counts and faces a possible 10 years in prison, if convicted. As he awaits his next trial as well as deals with misdemeanor charges in another case of aiding migrants, Democracy Now! followed him into the Sonoran Desert for his first trip in a year accompanying other No More Deaths volunteers who left water and food for migrants making the treacherous journey north.

  1. This is also occurring in the Chihuahuan Desert south of my neck of the woods, but not in Big Bend Park, Mostly west and east of there. But not as bad as in Sonoran Desert.

  2. SOMEBODY NEEDS TO BE OUT THERE “AT LEAST” SHOOTING WATER BOTTLES, AND WHOEVER IS “DISTRIBUTING” THEM……………

  3. These morons are aiding the destruction of my country & A. Goodman is there filming it with NO outrage.
    Traitor she & they are!
