Ten years ago, Mexican teenager José Antonio Elena
Rodríguez was shot through the border fence by a U.S. Border
Patrol agent. The agent believed the teen, standing in Nogales,
Sonora, was throwing rocks at him and that he was in danger. The
death launched a historic cross-border investigation that
ultimately changed how the Border Patrol functions. But José
Antonio isn’t the only person to have been killed across the border
between Mexico and the United States. His story became an example
of those families who are still fighting for justice. This week on
The Gaggle, a podcast by The Arizona Republic and azcentral.com,
host Ron Hansen is joined by Arizona Republic reporters Rafael
Carranza and Maritza Dominguez. Alongside producer Amanda Luberto,
they told José Antonio's story in season three of the Republic's
investigation podcast, Rediscovering. After visiting Ambos
Nogales for the 10-year memorial celebration, Rafael and Maritza
share how José Antonio's case is still impacting the family and our
legal system. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit
