Migrant Deaths in California’s Borderlands, 2018–2023
Executive Summary We examine the deaths of undocumented migrants in southern California (i.e., San Diego and Imperial counties) for fiscal years (FYs) 2018–2023 using data obtained from the San Diego County Medical Examiner’s Office (SDCMEO) and Imperial County Coroner’s Office (ICCO). We recorded 314 deaths of undocumented migrants, with 157 in San Diego County (SDC) and 157 in Imperial County (IC). We describe trend fluctuations in migrant deat…
Effects of maceration on light stable isotopic (δ13C, δ18O) values of pig (Sus scrofa) rib bone carbonate
Geoprofiling isotopic analyses provide investigative leads for unidentified human remains cases by determining possible regions of origin or excluding unlikely residences during life, which in turn can reduce the number of missing persons an investigator mustconsider. However, maceration methods involving heat, bleach, baking soda, and detergents have much potential to significantly change biogenic isotopic values in the structural carbonate phas…
Food Has No Borders
Isotopic analyses of human remains augment the biological profile with geolocation and dietary information, furthering efforts to identify unknown individuals from a forensic context. Here we test the methodological resolution of geolocation (δ18O, 87Sr/86Sr) and dietary (δ13C, δ15N) isotopes of one identified individual who immigrated to New York City from St. Vincent and the Grenadines (SVG), Lesser Antilles. Isotope-based geolocation estimates…
