Murillo v. Musegades: Bowie High School v. U.S. Border Patrol
In 1992 high school students and staff from an El Paso, Texas high School were being constantly harassed by the U.S. Border Patrol. Agents would aggressively yell at them demanding to prove their citizenship. One young lady was knocked to the ground by agents and kicked 20 times. The abuse could no longer be tolerated so several students, some alums, and some staff decided to sue the U.S. Border Patrol. Come root for the underdog and get all the details!
