      “The entire border is a carpet of human remains.” For the last couple of years, I’ve been reaching out to people who use Facebook to track down loved ones who disappeared crossing the desert. Most don’t want to talk to a reporter. This case was different.https://www.revealnews.org/article/lost-on-the-border-a-decade-later-a-man-finds-his-fathers-remains-on-facebook/ …

      The U.S. has built walls, increased surveillance, even taking babies from their mothers at the border in order to deter crossings. None of it has worked. It doesn’t stop people from making the journey — it just makes people take riskier routes. And riskier routes can mean death.

      We mapped out the location of Eliseo Cárdenas Zetina’s remains in Arizona. It’s treacherous terrain but he was three miles away from a highway. Ten years later, some of what remains are scattered bones, a shoe, and a laminated ID that, hidden in a cave, survived the wind and sun.pic.twitter.com/H77sUgjEGc

      A hand holds a GPS tracking that illustrates coordinates. In the background are scattered bones, remnants of a shoe, and a laminated identification card.

          The volunteers who scour the desert to find the remains of people who’ve disappeared? They’re mostly immigrants; some are formerly undocumented. The old truck they use doesn’t even always work. The fundraiser they started three months ago only raised $1600https://www.gofundme.com/armadillos-busqueda-y-rescate1 …

          The remains were found in March. Mexican authorities inexplicably took 3 months to get a DNA sample to the U.S. The Texas lab that establishes matches is backed up. The Cárdenas family waited 10 years since he went missing. If they’re lucky, they’ll get remains back by December.pic.twitter.com/s16qI4UykJ

          Belén Cárdenas Sánchez, shown with her husband, Francisco Salvarán Hernández, lived in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, with her father before he tried the cross the U.S. border in 2008. She holds the last photo they took together at their last Christmas celebration.

          One more thing: These kinds of stories are difficult to illustrate. We didn’t want to only post gruesome images of a skulls and bones. Thank you, @ghongsdusit, for thoughtfully working through countless renditions of images, photographs, and maps we used to tell this story.

          Replying to @aurabogado

          "came from a man who’d crossed the desert seven years ago, saw a body in a cave in a plastic bag and kept it to himself, fearing that reporting it could lead to his own deportation." The man didn't put himself into a plastic bag before he died...this is a murder case!
