Argentine forensics programs help families of Central American migrants

Hundreds of people die each year attempting to migrate to the United States from Central or South America. Whether due to hunger, dangerous conditions, or violence, the bodies of the victims are often not identified properly, a painful barrier for family members who want to put them to rest. But in Argentina, a nonprofit, forensic anthropology team has begun working with migrants’ families to help. From Buenos Aires, Natalio Cosoy reports on how the group is using knowledge developed in the 1980s working with families of the disappeared during Argentina’s mass killings.
