Trial begins in the case of ASU teacher charged with harboring undocumented immigrants
The federal trial of ASU faculty associate Scott Warren's aid to undocumented immigrants officially began following a press conference and jury selection in Tucson on Wednesday.
Warren, a volunteer with the humanitarian group No More Deaths, was arrested by U.S. Border Patrol in Ajo, Arizona, on suspicion of concealing, harboring or shielding two undocumented immigrants in January 2018.
Warren faces felony charges on counts of "harboring illegal aliens" and "conspiricy to transport and harbor illegal aliens," according to court reccords, and could face up to 20 years in federal prison if convicted.
No Más Muertes ASU, a student branch of No More Deaths, was at the courthouse Wednesday protesting the charges against Warren and “standing in solidarity” with him.
