The Biden administration demanded Sunday that Texas immediately stop its efforts blocking Border Patrol’s access along a portion of the US-Mexico border, where late Friday a woman and two children drowned after agents were barred from the area by state officials, according to a Homeland Security letter exclusively obtained by CNN.
It’s probably something more like Gross Negligence Manslaughter
Gross negligence manslaughter is a crime that is committed when someone in an official position commits an unlawful act that they should have been able to see would result in the death of another.
No I think he said they would straight up shoot people crossing the border, but unfortunately the Biden administration would charge them with murder ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Oh wow, it’s a good thing a pendant was here. Nobody would have understood their point if we didn’t have someone here to explain the difference between murder and manslaughter 🙄
Wasn’t the Texas governor recently saying how they were stopping just short of murder at the border? This sounds like murder.

He did, so instead they stop the border patrol and let them drown.
Gross Negligence Manslaughter - illegally prevented the border guard from saving them resulting in their reasonably predicted death.
They didn’t physically drown them themselves, so a straight Murder charge wouldn’t stick.

Goddammit, gonna lose me some internet points but it’s just too juicy.
