November Human Remains ReportThe number of migrant deaths reported by the Pima County Office of the Medical Examiner in November was: 14
Additional deaths reported by the Maricopa County OME: 1 from November plus 2 from October Recently found individuals grouped by PMI (Post Mortem Interval): 1 dead less than 1 week 2 dead less than 3 months 10 dead more than 6-8 months 1 not reported yet 1 from Maricopa county, PMI not available Total: 15 Updates for previous cases: 6 individuals newly identified by name (1312 remain unidentified) The 15 deaths discovered in November are a little less than the 18 in October but the pattern is drastically different. Of the cases with an estimated PMI, in October three quarters of the deaths had occurred within the three months prior to discovery (in other words, during the hottest months of the year). On November two thirds of the remains found were dated as more than 6-8 months old.
