It wasn’t a wall that killed 16-year-old Jose Antonio Elena Rodriguez on that dark desert night in October 2012.
It was the 10 bullets that struck him, either in the head or in the back, all fired by an agent — or agents — of the U.S. Border Patrol stationed near the border wall that separates Nogales, Ariz., from a town by the same name in Mexico.
Now, roughly 15 months later, the shooters — assuming there were more than one — have yet to be identified by U.S. authorities, much less disciplined, much less charged.According to witnesses on the Mexican side of the border, Elena Rodriguez was doing nothing wrong at the time he was shot.
