Border Patrol Holds Migrant Children in Detention for More Than 5 Days

  • By William Silgueiro
  • (General Dispatch) – CBS News reported that the border patrol has detained more than 13 thousand immigrant children without their representatives; the law requires that the detention must be 72 hours maximum and they have been under detention for more than 5 days.
  • CBS News spokeswoman Mirey Villarreal said the border patrol has 13,000 children in facilities that are not suitable for minors, holding them longer than the law requires, slowing the process for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement to take over.
  • Breitbart spokesman Randy Clark was astonished at Biden’s mismanagement of the immigration situation; the adult facilities are not conditioned to hold the large number of minors.
  • Clark said “Despite the opening of a new facility in Carrizo Springs, Texas, Border Patrol facilities continue to experience overcrowding not seen since the 2019 immigration crisis.”
  • The Biden administration has said that the border situation is not in trouble according to reports sent out by Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, after the White House has limited DHS in saying some sort of information about the situation.
  • The situation of the minors is a sorry state of affairs after President Biden revealed in 2014 they were under deplorable conditions in a visit he made when the Obama administration was in office.
  • DHS press secretary Tyler Q. Houlton, said, “The crisis on our southwest border is real. The number of illegal border crossings during the month of March shows an urgent need to address the current situation at the border.”
  • Some media outlets have said that in the Trump administration the number of unaccompanied minors remained at its lowest levels, but this changed since the moment President Biden took office with social measures.
