Coming Soon - Rediscovering: Killed Through the Border Fence

It’s been almost a decade since a boy in Mexico was shot dead by a Border Patrol agent in the United States.  His family couldn't believe it. And federal prosecutors didn't let it pass, even though Border Patrol agents rarely are scrutinized for excessive force. Recorded and retold in Spanish and English, these stories go beyond the killing of Jose Antonio Elena Rodriguez in search of something still elusive at the border: justice. The ripple effects of the violence that night live on at the U.S.-Mexico border today.   Jose Antonio’s story, his family’s grief and persistence in seeking accountability for his death and how the international border affects life in the twin cities known as Ambos Nogales are the subject of a new podcast by The Arizona Republic and azcentral.com. It's called: “Rediscovering: Killed Through the Border Fence." Season 3 in the Rediscovering series launches Sept. 12.   Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
