TUCSON, Ariz. — Arizona geography teacher Scott Warren is on trial for being accused of giving two migrants temporary shelter in the Sonoran Desert. But Warren’s arrest hasn’t stopped humanitarian organizations from continuing to help those who need it.One of those organizations is Humane Borders.“The whole idea of Humane Borders is to save lives,” said Steve Saltonstall, a 75-year-old volunteer and retired trial lawyer in Tucson. He drives into the Sonoran Desert often to fill water tanks that Humane Borders has scattered across Southern Arizona for those who need it.“The desert is an extremely harsh environment,” said Joe Curran with the Tucson Sector of the U.S. Border Patrol. “You’re just surrounded by absolute, desolate nothing. There’s no water out here, there’s minimal cellphone reception.”On this specific Friday, Saltonstall and other volunteers met at 6 a.m. to check a route of water tanks west of Tucson.“We go to each water station and fill it if need be, if the station is vandalized, we’ll replace the barrel,” he said. Salntonstall explained that sometimes people will put arsenic or gasoline in the barrels, so the water has to be tested often. He's also seen bullet holes in barrels.The organization has these in place mainly for people traveling north from the U.S.-Mexico border.Over the years, Humane Borders and the Pima County Medical Examiner’s Office have put together a death map which shows where more than 3,000 people crossing the border have died since 2000.“We consult those maps and try to put water stations where people have been found dead,” Saltonstall said. “It’s not easy walking, especially at night when people walk a lot to try and avoid the Border Patrol.”The Border Patrol has implemented their own initiatives to help those in distress — solar-powered safety beacons. These beacons have a button on them that notifies Border Patrol that someone needs help.“It could just be an average citizen in distress but a majority of what we see are illegal immigrants,” Curran said. “We have 34 of (the safety beacons) across Tucson sector.”The Tucson sector spans more than 250 miles in the Arizona desert.“We’re gonna make sure everyone has water, food and everybody is medically evaluated," Curran said.In 2018, the agency rescued more than 140 people at beacon locations.According to Curran, if you come across someone in the desert, the best thing to do is offer them water if they need it, and contact the proper authorities.But what happens next for those who are found in the desert depends on their citizenship status.“These are acts of desperation,” said Maurice Goldman, a Tucson immigration attorney.Humanitarians and other people who help those migrants, like Saltonstall and Humane Borders, also face a certain risk.“Most of these individuals that are out there doing this good work are aware that there is that risk,” Goldman said. “The government could bring charges against an individual for assisting or harboring an immigrant or migrant.”The number of people the government is actually prosecuting for that is also on the rise.As of November 2019, there have been more than 5,700 prosecuted cases, a 27% increase over 2018, according to the 3217

The West Texas man who killed seven people and wounded 25 in a shooting rampage bought his gun in a private sale, which doesn't require a background check, a law enforcement official told CNN.Police have described the firearm Seth Ator, 36, used in Saturday's killing spree in and around Odessa, Texas, as an AR-15-style rifle.Ator tried to buy a firearm on January 14, 2014, but wasn't allowed to, the Texas Department of Public Safety told CNN in an email.The department is prohibited by law from disclosing the reason he was denied the purchase, the DPS said.Ator failed a background check when he applied to get a gun, a representative for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives said Monday, without giving details.The ATF, the FBI and the DPS are "aggressively following up on" the source that supplied the firearm to Ator, the ATF representative said.Investigators are still searching for a motive in the mass shooting.The man showed up to work Saturday "in a distressed mental state," and was fired, said FBI Special Agent in Charge Christopher Combs.Speaking at a press conference Monday, Combs said the firing wasn't the reason for the shooting spree and that he was "already enraged" when he showed up for work.Ator had been 1264

The Trump administration pressured the Department of Homeland Security to release immigrants detained at the southern border into so-called sanctuary cities in part to retaliate against Democrats who oppose President Donald Trump's plans for a border wall, a source familiar with the discussions told CNN on Thursday.Trump personally pushed Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen to follow through on the plan, the source said. Nielsen resisted and the DHS legal team eventually produced an analysis that killed the plan, which was first reported by 568

Top executives from more than 180 companies have a message for lawmakers: Restricting abortion is "bad for business."A letter endorsed by the business leaders appeared as a full-page ad in Monday's New York Times, declaring "it's time for companies to stand up for reproductive health care."They argue that limiting access to comprehensive care, "including abortion," threatens "the health, independence, and economic stability of our employees and customers." The letter says strict abortion laws are "against our values" and impede corporate efforts to build diverse workforces.Among the list of the ad's endorsers are chief executives from Yelp, Slack, Tinder, H&M, and food delivery app Postmates. Jack Dorsey, CEO of Twitter, was also on the list, though he signed on behalf of the other company he runs, digital payment firm Square. The group included fashion designer Eileen Fisher.Businesses have shown a growing willingness to take stands on issues like LGBTQ rights, immigration and gun control — but they've remained mostly silent on abortion policy through years of debate.That changed for some companies this year after Alabama lawmakers approved a near-total ban on abortion, and as "heartbeat" laws, which prohibit abortions when a fetal heartbeat is detected or as early as six weeks into a pregnancy, gained new traction in several states. They include Georgia, Mississippi, Kentucky and Louisiana.Three of the world's biggest entertainment companies — Netflix, Disney and WarnerMedia — said last month that they may stop producing movies and TV shows in Georgia if the state's "heartbeat" law takes effect. (WarnerMedia, a unit of AT&T, is the parent company of CNN.)The executives behind the letter were brought together by a coalition that includes the ACLU, Planned Parenthood and the advocacy group NARAL Pro-Choice America.Ilyse Hogue, NARAL's president, said in a statement that the organization applauds the executives for "taking a stand on behalf of their employees, customers, and communities.""We encourage the entire business community to join us in protecting access to reproductive health care in the critical months and years to come," she added.The coalition is calling the campaign "Don't Ban Equality" and it launched a 2277

The skydiving plane that crashed Friday in Hawaii, killing all 11 people on board, was in another accident in California in 2016, according to National Transportation Safety Board records.The Beechcraft 65, manufactured in 1967, was being used as a skydiving plane as well on July 23, 2016 with 15 people on board when it stalled in the air three times and spun out before the pilot was able to land it. The 14 passengers on board, parachutists, were forced to jump to safety in mid-air.There was substantial damage to the tail section of the plane in the 2016 incident, but that wouldn't have precluded it from ever flying again, NTSB member Jennifer Homendy, who is in Hawaii investigating Friday's crash, said at a news conference Sunday afternoon.The cause of the 2016 incident was determined by the NTSB to be pilot error."The pilot lost control of that aircraft and there was substantial damage to the tail section of that plane. But like other modes of transportation you would conduct repairs and make sure that that is inspected," Homendy said. "So we will be looking at the quality of those repairs and whether it was inspected and whether it was airworthy before it was returned to service."In the more recent incident, the plane went down shortly after taking off from the Dillingham Airfield on Oahu's North Shore.The small plane, which was carrying passengers who intended to skydive, crashed around 6:30 p.m. Friday and erupted into flames. There were no survivors and authorities have not released the names of the people killed.Friday's crash is the deadliest civil aviation crash since 2011, Homendy said.On Sunday, she said officials were on the island to conduct their investigation and move "perishable evidence" into a safe location for inspection. Investigators have not yet determined a cause for the crash, she said.The plane did not contain a black box, Homendy said.The airfield where the plane crashed is roughly a 35-mile drive northwest of Honolulu. The general aviation airport is operated by the state Department of Transportation under a 25-year lease from the US Army, Hawaii's government website says. 2148
