Appleseed Report Details How Noncompliance With U.S. Law Is Placing Mexican Children in Detention at Risk, April 29, 2011
Appleseed and Mexico Appleseed release a groundbreaking report that identifies substantial noncompliance with federal law regarding the treatment of Mexican children who are detained after crossing the U.S.-Mexico border when unaccompanied by a parent or guardian.
The report, "Children at the Border: The Screening, Protection and Repatriation of Unaccompanied Mexican Minors," produced by Appleseed and Mexico Appleseed, shows, among other issues, that a 2008 federal law intended to prevent human trafficking and exploitation has not been fully implemented or complied with, allowing the rights of unaccompanied Mexican children to be routinely violated. As a result, thousands of children are needlessly being exposed to human trafficking by drug cartels and criminal gangs and being repatriated to potentially abusive and dangerous situations without having a reasonable chance to assert their rights.
