Would you want to give an illegal immigrant child back to a child trafficker would you. You do understand that not all the adult illegals are the kids parents?
These details do not matter to them. It isn't as if they care about the children, only in what way can they be used as hate bait against Trump.
Like reported, and an investigation by the Justice Department successfully shown that "untold number of children were handed over to child traffickers" as late as 2014. And the media buried the story.
They have no way of knowing just how many migrant children were sold as slave laborers, and that the whereabouts TO THIS DAY of many of these kids are not known.
But that is all OK, in fact you can see that leftist make jokes about it.
And who said it was okay? Who the F do you think you are kidding? Anyone? Anyone on this board? Do you care about
details? **** NO but I'm putting them up anyway. YES, the media covered it, extensively.
It's very simple
. OBAMA's team made a grave mistake and a CONGRESSIONAL INQUIRY ENSUED. Trump had a plan to do EXACTLY what he is doing! This was NOT the law of unintended consequences like Obama's. He got caught OPEN HANDED RED FACED in his cruelty. He didn't expect rank and decent humans to be outraged. He didn't expect 300 of us to walk across the street of our fancy hotel on the ocean in Ft. Lauderdale and demonstrate last SAT morning because these kids were INTENTIONALLY separated with CRUEL INTENT from their parents by YOUR president.
Got his attention didn't it! NOW comes the millions wasted because he INTENTIONALLY decided to inflict CRUELTY!
Did the Obama Administration Place Immigrant Children With Human Traffickers?
A congressional report and criminal indictment resulted from a 2014 incident in which multiple immigrant children were handed off to a human trafficking ring.
TRUE
ORIGIN
On 17 June 2018, right-wing blogs
published a
flurry of
stories reporting that the administration of former United States President Barack Obama had handed immigrant children over to human traffickers.
The reports were posted in response to the public outcry over a policy enacted by Obama’s successor, Donald Trump, whose administration in April 2018
announced a “zero tolerance” immigration policy. Under this policy, all adults who are caught crossing the southern U.S. border between ports of entry are being charged with federal crimes and then separated from accompanying children.
As the policy went into effect, news reports documenting
scenes of
distraught,
traumatized children being
torn from their parents by immigration authorities, and images migrant children being held in
cages, created a backlash from both sides of the political spectrum against the Trump administration.
In
response to the growing fallout, the president’s supporters wrote up stories criticizing his predecessor based on a 2015
criminal case and 2016
Senate report stemming from a Marion, Ohio human trafficking ring that used migrant children for forced labor on an egg farm. Right-leaning blogs like WesternJournal.com’s Conservative Tribune for example confusingly
reported the media was “silent” about the case while aggregating their story from a
New York Magazine report:
The left-leaning media stayed strangely silent when the detention of migrant children went on for years before Trump took office… and now it looks like they also kept quiet when Barack Obama’s administration literally placed immigrant children in the hands of human traffickers just a few years ago.
“The United States government placed an unknown number of Central American migrant children into the custody of human traffickers after neglecting to run the most basic checks on these so-called ‘caregivers,’”
New York magazine reported in 2016, based on a
Senate report.
It’s an obviously false statement that the “left-leaning media stayed strangely silent” about the case, because a simple Google search reveals it has been thoroughly reported on by local and nationaloutlets and is the subject of a PBS documentary film. As the text notes, Conservative Tribune’s own story was based on such reporting.
In July 2015, the U.S. Department of Justice indicted a ring of traffickers led by Aroldo Castillo-Serrano and accused them of smuggling children into the United States. They were also accused of lying to Health and Human Services’ Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR) by posing as relatives in order to gain custody of children in its care and use them for forced labor in Marion, a city north of Columbus. The federal indictment, filed in U.S. district court in Ohio accuses Castillo-Serrano and his conspirators of forcing the children to live in squalid trailers and work six or seven 12-hour days a week, using threats and physical violence as coercion.
According to the Justice Department, Castillo-Serrano pleaded guilty in August 2015 to counts related to trafficking. He was
sentenced to more than 15 years in prison and ordered to pay restitution to the victims.
The case spurred a Senate subcommittee
investigation led by Rob Portman (R-Ohio) which concluded the processes used by ORR to screen sponsors “are inadequate to protect the children in the agency’s care.” At the time, HHS lacked a system to screen potential sponsors for signs of trafficking, like accumulating multiple unrelated children. It did not physically assess homes children were being placed in and did not do adequate background checks on adults residing in those homes. The report found that in 2014, “HHS permitted a sponsor to block a child-welfare case worker from visiting with one of the victims, even after the case worker discovered the child was not living at the address on file with HHS.”
As a result of the investigation, HHS and the Department of Homeland Security entered into an agreement to hammer out a joint plan that would address the issues raised in the report. As of 26 April 2018, that still had not happened according to Portman, who released a
statement blasting the agencies for their failure to take action. He wrote:
The agreement said the agencies would enter into a detailed “Joint Concept of Operations” that would spell out what the agencies would do to fix the problems. They gave themselves a deadline of February 2017. That was over a year ago.
It’s now April 2018. We still don’t have that Joint Concept of Operations — the JCO — and despite repeated questions from Sen. Carper and me, as well as our staffs, over the past year, we don’t have any answers about why that is.
In fact, in a recent meeting, a DHS official asked our investigators why we even cared about the JCO.
