The deaths show the vulnerability of migrants forced to ‘remain in Mexico’ under new US policy for asylum seekers
On a Saturday afternoon in December, three Honduran boys walked out through the gates of the blue stucco YMCA shelter for unaccompanied child migrants in Tijuana, and turned past the gas station next door on to Cuauhtémoc Boulevard for a walk.
Their destination was a sports centre-turned-migrant camp to visit people they’d met travelling north with a caravan of other Central Americans.
Two of them never returned: the bodies of Jasson Ricardo Acuña Polanco and Jorge Alexander Ruiz Duban, 16 and 17, were found the following morning; three people were arrested for their murder.
