Central American MigrantsConrad Fox/World Vision Report
A group of illegal migrants from Honduras prepare to jump a freight train in Orizaba, central Mexico.
Description
Like the U.S., Mexico also has immigration problems along its border. In Mexico's case, it's Central Americans crossing into southern Mexico.
The Mexican government is accused of using brutal tactics to control the flood of immigrants. Conrad Fox spends the night with a group of Central Americans as they risk their lives on the journey northward.
