The Webb County Medical Examiner's Office in Laredo, Texas is forced to institute extraordinary measures on account of the increase in migrants' deaths.

WARNING: Graphic footage—Fox News correspondent Alexis McAdams goes inside one of the busiest morgues along the southern border as staff are 'completely overwhelmed' by the death of illegal migrants on 'Special Report.'gets worse by the day, Fox News takes an exclusive look at just one of the county morgues along the Texas border, which has been completely overwhelmed by the increase in migrants’ deaths.

It is just another day at the Webb County Medical Examiner’s office. The small morgue, now one of the busiest along the Southern border. As nearly every day, the team wheels in another migrant body. Adding to the more than 300 they have already processed so far this year. "It is a crisis. I have labeled it. There you go, we are in the middle of a crisis," says Dr. Corinne Stern of the Webb County Medical Examiner.Stern has been a medical examiner in Texas for more than 20-years. Not all the border counties have a medical examiner’s office. So, Stern serves nearly a dozen. Now, for the first time ever she has stopped accepting migrant cases, because there is no room.It is a graphic and a grim reality.

With nowhere to send the bodies, makeshift cemeteries are popping up near the border. Plots in Maverick County are marked by PVC pipe crosses. The tags read Jane and John Doe and at least one small child is buried below the Texas dirt.
