Minors separated from parents and detained at US border

tell of anguish

Video        G        2 July 2018

 

Eddy, 17, and Lilian, nine,

were separated from their mother at the US border on 19 May.

 

The family was fleeing violence in Guatemala

– only to be ripped apart under the Trump administration’s

'zero-tolerance' immigration policy.

 

Eddy and Lilian's mother was prosecuted

and sent to the T Don Hutto immigration detention centre

in central Texas.

 

For five weeks,

she had no idea where her two children were.

 

They had been left behind at a processing centre

and then flown to foster care in Grand Rapids, Michigan

– where they were held in separate homes.

Why were families being separated at the southern US border?

Video        G        21 June 2018

 

Donald Trump has signed an executive order

ending the separation of children and parents

who cross the southern US border illegally.

 

The children were detained

while their parents faced legal proceedings.

 

While they waited for their parents to be released,

the children were put into inhospitable detention centres

furnished with metal cages and concrete floors.

 

Audio recordings released by a charity

reveal the distress many children were,

and are, experiencing in the centres

Five things to know

Five things to know about US child migrant separations

Video        BBC News        19 June 2018

 

At least 2,000 children in the US

have been separated from their families since April

as they crossed the border.

 

President Trump is facing heavy criticism

over the "zero-tolerance" policy,

under which adults who try to cross the border,

many planning to seek asylum, are placed in custody

and face criminal prosecution for illegal entry.

 

As a result,

hundreds of minors

are now being housed in detention centres,

and kept away from their parents.

US family separation crisis – in pictures

 

Children arriving in the US from Central America

have long faced the prospect of family separation

and navigated a complex legal immigration system

that can take months or years

to render a decision due to a massive backlog of cases.

 

The government separated

more than 2,300 children from their parents in recent weeks

in a policy that has stoked widespread outrage

among both Democrats and Republicans

family separation        UK / USA

 

Thousands of families

were separated under the policy

before the Trump administration

ended the practice in 2018.

 

The ACLU successfully

sued the government,

winning a court order to reunite families.

 

Thousands of parents and children

were reunited within weeks.
