– When *Albert, 36, and his 10-year-old son reached the United States border last week, they hoped their month-long journey with smugglers from Honduras would end in a happy reunion with cousins in Florida ready to welcome them.But after crossing the Rio Grande River into Texas, US border patrol agents picked up Albert and his son, drove them to the bridge to Mexico, and escorted them across.“I lost everything on the journey here, I have nowhere to go,” said Albert, who asked Al Jazeera not to use his real name due to fears he could be identified by kidnappers who prey on people along the US-Mexico border.
