DHS defends locking up critically ill baby by blaming migrant mother - Rawstory via MSN
The Department of Homeland Security sparked outrage Tuesday after reports revealed that a two-month old baby with bronchitis was being held in an immigration detention center in Texas, and on Wednesday, DHS went on an unhinged posting spree defending its lockup of the critically ill infant.
The infant, Juan Nicolás, is currently incarcerated at the South Texas Family Residential Center, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention center in Dilley, Texas, a facility thats become infamous for the amount of children held within its walls.
Nicolás was detained with her mother, who relayed to Rep. Joaquin Castro (D-TX) that her newborn became unresponsive on Tuesday due to their condition, but was still discharged from the hospital and placed back in detention.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, DHS did not refute any of the accusations leveled against it, and instead, went on a social media posting spree responding to several critics to cast blame for the infants dire situation on his mother.
