Almost 300 migrant children removed from Texas facility described as 'appalling'
This is sad and is a serious black eye on us as a so called “civilized and compassionate” nation.Almost 300 migrant children have been removed a border patrol facility in Texas after media reports of lawyers describing “appalling” and potentially dangerous conditions, Department of Homeland Security officials told NBC News.
Lawyers who recently visited two Texas facilities holding migrant children described seeing young children and teenagers not being able to shower for days or even weeks, inadequate food, flu outbreaks and prolonged periods of detention.
