Former U.S. Attorneys Disingenuously Weigh in on Separating Parents from Children
By Dan Cadman on June 22, 2018
A group of former U.S. attorneys who served under both Republican and Democratic administrations wrote a letter this week to Attorney General Jeff Sessions to urge him to "end child detention."
There is no doubt that this is an emotionally charged issue, but the letter reflects a strangely lopsided view of the ongoing issue of separating children from their parents — when that occurs — and of the even larger issue of the flood of minors who are crossing our border in record numbers daily, sometimes unaccompanied by family but in the hands of smugglers and cartel members; sometimes in the company of one or both parents; and sometimes in the company of imposters hoping to ride their way to a get-out-of-jail card through false association with the child.
