b*****d 发帖数: 61690 | 1 U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) said Wednesday that a 10-year-old
girl with Down Syndrome was not separated from her family under the Trump
administration's zero-tolerance immigration policy.
The agency said in a statement obtained by CNN that the girl was separated
from her mother and detained in a Texas facility because her mother is a
material witness in a human smuggling case.
CBP added that the mother was "not prosecuted."
"U.S. Customs and Border Protection separated a child with Down Syndrome
from her mother as a result of a smuggling attempt on June 3," the statement
reads.
"This however was not a result of zero tolerance as the mother is not being
prosecuted, rather being held as a witness in the smuggling incident," it
continues. |
