A state trooper's claims that officers at the Texas border were ordered to push migrants into the Rio Grande and deny them water are being investigated by the Office of the Inspector General. The trooper also reported migrants injured by razor wire.
, D-San Antonio, said the details outlined in the trooper’s email are an “absolutely monstrous, inhumane policy” and added that he urged the Biden administration to intervene and “remove the death traps Abbott has installed, for the sake of human rights.”that “Troopers give migrants water. They treat their wounds. They save them from drowning. They also do everything possible to deter them from risking their lives in the first place.
Andrew Mahaleris, a spokesperson for Abbott, didn’t address the claims made by the trooper, instead blaming President Joe Biden’s immigration policies. Domingo Garcia, president of the League of United Latin American Citizens, a Latino civil rights organization, condemned Texas “inhumane treatment of innocent people.”
