This audio clip featured on CNN does all the talking, figuratively and literally... Often times we read or simply hear about atrocities committed against foreigners and immigrants. Rarely, however, are we afforded the opportunity to orientate ourselves directly to such human experience through hearing or seeing for ourselves.

By clicking here you can listen to the 911 call made by a woman after she had witnessed her husband, Raul Flores, and daughter murdered during a home invasion by Arizona Minutemen. Please listen carefully and tune into the experience as though it were you making the call. Read the article excerpt "Rogue Minutemen leader held in fatal home invasion" by CNN's Patrick Oppmann below- 

Raul Flores thought federal agents had barged with guns drawn into his home in Arivaca, Arizona, in the middle of the night.

Shawna Forde, 41, denies involvement in the shooting deaths of an Arizona man and his daughter.
The woman and two men wore uniforms and identified themselves as U.S. Marshals. They claimed the house was surrounded. They said they were looking for an escaped prisoner, Flores' wife told a 911 dispatcher.

But there was no backup waiting outside, and no fugitive. The marshals were imposters.

As the intruders searched his home, Flores asked one of the men why his handgun was taped. The man responded by shooting and killing Flores.

"Someone just came in and shot my daughter and husband," Flores' wife frantically told 911. She tells the police operator that she was shot and left for dead with her husband, Raul Flores, 29, and daughter Brisenia, 9, who were both shot in the head.

Police are not releasing the woman's name to protect her identity. But her 911 call, released to the media by the Pima County Sheriff's Department, tells the story of a deadly home invasion by a rogue band of impostors.

As she describes the initial attack, the intruders return to the house. The door can be heard opening.

"They are coming back in! They are coming back in!" the caller screams. She has armed herself with her husband's handgun.
"Get the f--- out," she barks. The order is followed by the explosive sound of gunfire traded as the wounded woman and her would-be killers fire on each other. A man -- one of the intruders -- is hit and groans loudly. The attackers retreat and leave the woman alive and alone with her slain family...
