nice .....putting words in my mouth now and more avoidance.....children were sexually abused due to biden's corrupt open border policy.
how many unaccompanied kids that crossed the border have died?
GROK:
Data on unaccompanied minors who died while crossing the U.S.-Mexico border is limited and inconsistent, as no comprehensive, up-to-date public record tracks these specific deaths. Available information primarily comes from government reports, NGOs, and media, but these often focus on broader migrant deaths or lack precise figures for unaccompanied children.The International Organization for Migration (IOM) reported that between 2014 and August 29, 2024, at least 3,696 children died or went missing globally during migration journeys, but this includes various routes, not just the U.S.-Mexico border. For the U.S. specifically, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and other sources do not provide a clear count of unaccompanied minor deaths during border crossings. A 2019 report noted seven migrant children died in U.S. custody or shortly after apprehension, but this includes both accompanied and unaccompanied minors and is not recent.
Challenges include:
- Underreporting: Many deaths occur in remote areas, and bodies may not be found or identified as unaccompanied minors.
- Data Gaps: CBP focuses on "encounters" (apprehensions) rather than deaths. The Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) tracks minors in custody but not those who die en route.
- Mixed Categories: Statistics often combine accompanied and unaccompanied minors or focus on broader migrant deaths.
Without specific, recent data, an exact number cannot be confirmed. Estimates suggest hundreds of minors may have died over decades, but this is speculative based on broader migrant death trends (e.g., 8,000+ total migrant deaths from 1998–2020 per some studies). For a precise answer, more detailed reporting from CBP or IOM would be needed, but such data is not currently public. If you want, I can dig deeper into specific years or sources for partial insights.
