- BREAKING: Dr. Scott Warren found NOT GUILTY on all charges for providing food, water, shelter, and medical care to two undocumented men. Yet again, No More Deaths has withstood the government’s attempts to criminalize basic human compassion.
- BREAKING: HUNG JURY in the #ScottWarren case. After 15+ hours of deliberation, a hung jury was officially declared, demonstrating that there are Arizonans standing their ground for justice and kindness in a historic moment.
- 🚨🚨🚨 UPDATE — At sunset last night, in a military-style assault, Border Patrol raided our humanitarian aid camp, chasing and arresting 30+ people who were receiving care and detaining all aid workers, whose phones were confiscated along w/ any video footage of the raid.

While many may think ICE is a relatively young agency, tying its origins to the events of 9/11, its history traces back to when the nation's founding fathers were establishing the blueprint for the newly created United States of America.- Replying to @NoMoreDeathsThis verdict is validation of what we have always known: that #humanitarianaidisneveracrime We will continue to provide food, water, and medical aid to all those who need it, until the day that no one dies or disappears while crossing the deserts and oceans of the world.
- Replying to @NoMoreDeathsOn this day when so many eyes will be focused on Scott, we want to send our deepest love and solidarity to Jose and Kristian, and all those whose movement and survival continues to be criminalized. La lucha sigue.
- The government has failed in its attempt to apply federal charges to acts of common compassion. In Scott’s own words, “Today it remains as necessary as ever for local residents and humanitarian aid volunteers to stand in solidarity with migrants and refugees.”
- BREAKING: Border Patrol, entered our humanitarian aid camp near Arivaca AZ today without a warrant, detaining one person, in a clear prioritization of an enforcement only strategy Agents are currently surrounding and surveilling the property.
