Led by US senator Jon Ossoff, the investigation cites hundreds of reports since January, including accounts of miscarriages, child neglect, and sexual abuse at ICE detention centers in dozens of states.

A United States Senate investigation has identified more than 500 credible reports of human rights abuses in US immigration detention since January, including alarming allegations of mistreatment of pregnant women and children.

As of late last month, the investigation—led by US senator Jon Ossoff, a Democrat of Georgia—had unearthed 41 cases of physical and sexual abuse; 14 involving pregnant detainees and 18 involving children...

Shockingly, people are treated poorly in American concentration camps.

This a the country that loves protecting child rapists. Whether you're a member of the clergy or a college football coach or a lobbyist for Mossad or the Speaker of the fucking House of Representatives, we're going to bend over backwards to make sure you can keep raping as many kids as possible until its too difficult to cover up.

You don't even have to be in a concentration camp. You can be in a NYC penthouse or the back stage of a beauty pageant and you still won't be safe.

But when we've created a black box staffed by the most drug-fueled, roid-raging, politically insulated creeps on the planet, is anyone really surprised to hear they're using the place to fuck kids?

Remember all those times that lawmakers were rejected from inspecting ICE facilities?

I wonder how many more cases we'd know about if they had been allowed to.

Dems were denied access to Florida's Alligator Alcatraz just this past Thursday while, at the same time, feds are claiming they're not at all responsible.

So 32 involved children....

Sub human scum!

Abolish ICE!

So 32 involved children…

That you know about!

Miscarriages, that's murder in some states. Let's bring some charges to ICE.

Is shocked pikachu overused yet? Is there something new, or more apt?

I don't know.

It needs something that looks like it's been horrified for so long it just might cry if you say something nice to it

I'm tired of these defective cunts saying that it is ok to treat any person like this. These are people. What if we reversed the situation, do you still think that's necessary?

I want to make every one who defends this shit live like that for a week.

[–] Rentlar@lemmy.ca 18 points 1 day ago

I still remember Ossoff's hard-fought and hard-won campaign in 2021. Glad this is paying dividends for Americans. This report needs to get in front of Americans to organize more ICE resistance.
