A 19-year-old pregnant woman from Guatemala died this week from injuries
suffered when she fell more than 19 feet trying to climb the U.S. border
wall near El Paso, Texas, last Saturday, U.S. and Guatemalan authorities
said Thursday.

Guatemala identified the woman as Mirian Stephany Girón Luna. Medical
personnel tried to deliver her baby, but were unsuccessful, both
governments said. The U.S. said Girón was eight months pregnant, while
Guatemalan authorities said she was at seven months.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) blamed Girón’s death on human
smugglers who encouraged her to try to climb the wall.

In a statement, Gloria Chavez, the chief for the Border Patrol’s El Paso
sector, said the authorities would work with Mexico “to find those
responsible for placing these lives in danger.”

CBP Acting Commissioner Mark Morgan told reporters that Girón and her
partner were taken to the border by smugglers and left there in the
darkness. They were attempting to climb when she fell. Border Patrol
agents reached her and called medical authorities, who took her to the
hospital, but “tragically, the mother and the child died from their
injuries from the fall,” Morgan said.

Her partner, who is believed to have been the baby’s father, eventually
found Border Patrol agents, who called for an ambulance.

Girón suffered a cerebral hemorrhage, a pelvis fracture, and liver and
kidney lacerations.

Guatemala says “surgical interventions” could not save her life and she
died Tuesday afternoon.

Girón is from Guatemala’s San Marcos department, near the country’s border
with Mexico. CBP says it has no record of her trying to enter the U.S. at
an official port of entry or having been placed in the “Remain in Mexico”
program, in which tens of thousands of migrants have been forced to pursue
their immigration cases from Mexico.

Tekandi Paniagua Flores, the Guatemalan consul in Del Rio, Texas, said he
spoke to Girón’s partner, who remains in Border Patrol detention.

“He said that if he had known that the risks were this high, he would not
have done it,” Paniagua said.

Paniagua said he could recall at least seven cases this year in which
Guatemalans had injured themselves trying to climb U.S. border walls. He
says such cases are rising because more migrants from Guatemala and other
Central American countries wracked by violence and poverty no longer
surrender en masse to the Border Patrol.

Policy changes such as “Remain in Mexico” and a ban on many asylum claims
have made it more difficult for many people to remain in the U.S. once
they are caught.

The U.S. has already built or replaced about 135 miles of border barriers
with Mexico, with several contracts awarded for more construction. Much of
the border in and around El Paso, across from Ciudad Juarez, Mexico,
already has some form of fencing.

No collusion - Special Counsel Robert Swan Mueller III, March 2019.

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party ran out of gas and got run over by a Trump
truck.

Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for cleaning up the disaster
of the Obama presidency.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp. Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood
queer liberal democrat donors.

President Trump has boosted the economy, reduced illegal immigration,
appointed dozens of judges and created jobs.

Senile loser and NAMBLA supporter Nancy Pelosi got "Trumped" on February

If you can't control gravity then don't do risky things like climb to
high places on a fence or jump from a 2nd story window.....

It sure is sad but then Darwin tried to explain it scientifically as
survival of the fittest, meaning the people who are able to continue
life without being killed by the environment or the and/or the
intelligence needed over come those parts of the environment that you can.

It seems she failed the Darwin criteria. Very very sad and UN-necessary
since she could have live to be an old lady in Mexico. Give thanks for
what you have and don't be greedy.
