Spiritualution Campaign: US/MX Border Justice
Border Vigil Nogales 2015
On the evening of October 10, 2015 change agents of the Spiritualution Movement joined others in vigil for Jose Antonio Elena, a 16-year old boy who was shot 10 times by border patrol agent Lonnie Swartz in 2012. The gathering takes place on both the US and Mexican side of the border fence and is in solidarity for all of the innocent victims of border patrol violence, it is also a protest against the impunity the agency and agents have received and a call for true justice. Just recently Lonnie Swartz was indicted for second degree murder charges, we await justice in this case and pray that further action is taken by authorities to bring the many other similar cases to justice. The Spiritualution Movement thanks the Border Patrol Victims Action Network and the tireless work of Ana Maria and Richard to continually bring public attention back to this issue.
