 The families of 11 immigrants
            who died illegally crossing into
            Arizona from Mexico have filed a $41
            million claim against two federal
            agencies, saying the government's
            refusal to put water out in the desert
            contributed to the migrants' deaths.

   "But of those places they
            requested to place water stations,
            none of them would have helped the
            poor people who perished there," said
            spokesman Tom Bauer. "In fact, the
            closest proposed water area for a
            water station was 12 miles and two
            mountain ranges away from where
            the migrants were found dead."
