Virtual Lecture by Dr. Gregory Hess, Chief Medical Examiner, Pima County, AZ “Management of Undocumented Border Crosser Remains”
Since 2001, the Pima County Medical Examiner’s Office has handled over 3,000 cases of undocumented migrants dying within its jurisdiction. The county lies along the often-remote stretch of the Arizona – Mexico border, a dangerous crossing point due to the extremes of weather and inhospitable terrain. Dr. Hess will discuss how the Pima County Medical Examiner’s Office works with local and international agencies to handle its enormous caseload and return the deceased to their families.
