Overview of Francisco Almanza Silva
Francisco was with a group of people that had just crossed into the US from Camargo, Mexico and then traveled to McAllen, Texas. They were dropped off near Falfurrias/Encino, TX to walk around the Falfurrias Border Patrol Checkpoint. After being told they would only be walking for two days, Francisco could no longer keep up with the group. He was supposedly left behind in an unknown area in the brush because he was very sick and about to pass out. Francisco was diabetic and required insulin. The family believes that he may have ran out of insulin and this contributed to his being left behind by the group. He has not been seen or heard from since 8 JUN 2015.
