Warren is a college geography instructor. No More Deaths is a direct aid organization working to stopThe jury took only hours to reach its verdict in U.S. district court on Wednesday.
The volunteer has denied helping migrants avoid law enforcement. Instead, his actions include leaving water for migrants and volunteering at the organization’s camp to help the injured. “We need to work within the spirit of humanitarian aid and within the confines of the law,” Warren told the Associated Press.
Warren’s lawyer said the jury “parsed the evidence” to find that this type of help isn’t a crime. “They paid rapt attention while we were putting on our defense and while the prosecution was putting on its case, and they decided that humanitarian aid is not always a crime, the way the government wanted it to be,” Greg Kuykendall told The Associated Press.
