An eight-month pregnant Guatemalan migrant and her unborn baby died days after the expecting mother fell while trying to climb over a Texas border fence.
Miriam Estefany Girón Luna, 19, a former beauty queen in her native land, was trying to scale a 22-foot steel mesh barrier separating Ciudad Juárez, Mexico, and Clint, Texas, when she fell and landed on her back. Her partner, Dilver Israel Díaz García, 26, alerted a unit of Border Patrol agents with the El Paso Sector, who called for Emergency Medical Services. An ambulance transported Girón Luna to Del Sol Medical Center Hospital in El Paso,

Anchor baby OP? In any event we should pray for both of them.

Sorry to be flippant, but her body, her choice. She chose to climb a fence while heavily pregnant and illegally enter the United States. Her baby could have been born safely in her home country. All she wanted was an anchor baby.

Oh, now it’s an unborn baby. Any other time it would be a fetus that’s not even human life yet.

This is horrible. Have we become hard hearted like the Democrats? Speaking for myself, I don't want to be that cruel and empty of feeling.

No, I will not apologize for not feeling sorry for this criminal!!!!! There are lots of pretty criminals in prison. The fact that she was pretty makes absolutely no difference to the fact that she was doing an illegal act while trying to illegally invade this country!!!! But I guess Adry Torres wouldn't have wasted his energy writing this article if this had been a fat ugly woman who died!!!!!!
I do feel bad for her baby, who had no choice in this matter. But this woman chose to break the law in a very dangerous way -- and ended up killing herself and her baby in the process!!!
The blood of this woman and her baby are on her own hands and on the hands of anyone who helped her!!!!!

Life is all about choices. She made a really bad choice.
Shoulda stayed home.
Cautionary tale for others, I hope.

Clearly it's not Darwin-proofed yet. Bring in the design team.

As far as I'm concerned #9 she was breaking into our house to steal from our children.
So not sorry.

My sympathy in this case is reserved for the innocent child who died. The mother left her home country, somehow got herself to the U.S./Mexican border, attempted to enter the U.S. illegally by climbing a very tall fence and fell, killing herself and her unborn child. I feel no responsibility or guilt over her death, anymore than I feel either for a drunk driver who wraps his car around a tree, a junkie who overdoses, or a thug who pulls a gun on a cop and gets shot. They made their choice and it ended badly for them.

I’m surprised that Texas authorities did not arrest and charge her “partner” with child endangerment or some similar charge.

19 year old social worker? She was either very smart or the social worker standards aren't very high in Guatemala. She was also smart to try to get an anchor baby...not so much for climbing the fence, though.

Call me hard-hearted if you want, but in 244 years, not a single person has lost their life from going through proper channels to become a US citizen!! She should have stayed home.

This is heartbreaking. That said, it was wholly unnecessary and the result of a tragically foolish decision. As another poster pointed out, the wall worked, just not in the way it was envisioned. Let this be a hard lesson to anyone with the same idea.
Why would they even want to come to this horrible, irredeemably racist country anyway?
