In the incident that took place on the US-Mexico border, the family who tried to enter the country illegally surrendered to the US Border Patrol officials after crossing the border. Then the US authorities detained the family. The family of the eight-year-old girl, who had health problems in custody, conveyed their request to the authorities for a hospital.
DEATH COME BY EYES…
The little girl’s family has repeatedly submitted hospital requests to the authorities for their son’s “fever, flu and pain symptoms”. Investigators assigned to investigate the tragedy determined that the same complaints had occurred nine times in three days.
Alvarez was tried to be treated with ice and cold shower method on May 16, apart from flu and antipyretic drugs.
When Alvarez’s family surrendered after crossing the border a week ago, they told authorities about their child’s medical history. According to this statement, Alvarez was a congenital heart patient. It was stated by the inspectors that none of the border guards took this situation into account.
“My daughter couldn’t breathe for almost a day and a half, so she died,” Alvarez’s family told a news channel. “She cried and begged for her life and they ignored her. They did nothing for her.”
On the other hand, investigators stated that Anadith Tanay Reyes Alvarez, who died at the age of eight, was examined four times by a nurse on the day she died.
