The yearly count for migrant deaths at the United States-Mexico border has already surged to an all-time high, despite three months being left in the 2021-22 fiscal year, according to the Washington Examiner's interpretation of data provided by the U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

Three federal law enforcement officials have also confirmed the Examiner's reporting on the CBP data, which covers October 2021 through June 2022.

During that stretch, 609 border deaths were reported, eclipsing the 566 deaths from October 2020 to September 2021 — the previous annual high.
