'We regularly find deceased migrants in this county, but never anything like this,' a Texas sheriff said.
Law enforcement officials in Texas on Thursday found the remains of a suspected migrant hanging from a tree 80 miles from the state's border with Mexico., which first reported on the investigation, shows a man's skeletal body hanging from a long piece of cloth around his neck.
Investigators also found two identification cards belonging to a Mexican male at the scene. The sheriff said the investigation is being treated as a homicide, though he noted that there are still too many variables"to really specifically say what actually transpired," until authorities return to the scene and get an autopsy report back.
The Brooks County Sheriff's Office has reported an increase in migrant deaths this year. Martinez said his office has found 98 migrants who died since January and noted that 10 migrants died in a car crash. Last year, Martinez said his office only looked into the deaths of 34 migrants.
