A few days later, as Breitbart toured the region and spoke with marine unit agents, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/border\/2022\/03\/11\/border-patrol-finds-body-of-4-year-old-migrant-child-in-rio-grande\/\">agents found<\/a> the child\u2019s lifeless body.<\/p>\n<p>There appears to be a spike in drowning deaths in the Del Rio Sector, Breitbart <a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/border\/2022\/03\/21\/graphic-exclusive-10-migrant-drownings-over-2-weeks-in-one-texas-border-area\/\">reported<\/a> on Monday.\u00a0A federal law enforcement official speaking with Breitbart Texas under condition of anonymity reported the deaths of eight migrants who drowned in the Rio Grande near Eagle Pass, Texas, during the past two weeks. The photo provided by the official serves as a warning about the dangers of the swiftly moving waters of the Rio Grande at this time of year.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>In addition to the eight drowned migrants in Eagle Pass, agents in Del Rio recovered the body of a one-year-old Brazilian girl from the Rio Grande on March 18, independent journalist Ali Bradley tweeted. The child was reportedly swept away from her father while crossing the river. He is also presumed to have drowned, but his body has yet to be recovered.<\/p>\n<p>Responding to an inquiry from Breitbart Texas, Governor Greg Abbott said:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>President Biden has created a magnet for illegal immigration, rolling out the red carpet with his reckless open border policies and enticing migrants to make the dangerous trek. Each day, this humanitarian crisis along the border grows as more women and children are trafficked, millions of lethal doses of fentanyl are smuggled in, migrants die during their journey, and law enforcement risks their lives to protect their communities. And all the while, the Biden Administration endangers innocent lives by refusing to do their job and secure the border.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Dr. Corinne Stern, Medical Examiner for Webb County, Texas, told Breitbart she is shocked at \u201chow quiet the media has been with this.\u201d While she does not have numbers from Maverick County, Texas, for this year. Eagle Pass is the county seat for Maverick County. She said the operational agreement between the two counties has not been renewed and Maverick County is holding the bodies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe had 296 crossing death come through this office last year!!,\u201d Dr. Stern told Breitbart. \u201c104 were from Webb (Laredo) and 72 were from Maverick (Eagle Pass) \u2014most of theirs were drownings.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She added that she too has heard about a large number of migrant deaths in Maverick County. At this time, specific numbers are not available from her agency.<\/p>\n<p>CBP officials refused to confirm the number of migrants drowned this year in the Del Rio Sector.\u00a0Officials responded they would not release these numbers at this time and offered no further comment.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/author\/bob-price\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/author\/bob-price\/&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1583344635394000&#038;usg=AFQjCNFbc5T2NTdEL9_YFsQbXuOF3xOKVQ\"><em>Bob Price<\/em><\/a><em>\u00a0serves as associate editor and senior news contributor for the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/border\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-saferedirecturl=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/url?q=https:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/border\/&#038;source=gmail&#038;ust=1583344635394000&#038;usg=AFQjCNHrdMnYOa5wlYK9eCiMk9vHw1BGNg\">Breitbart Texas-Border team<\/a>.
