DHS Debunks Jon Ossoff’s Claim that Pregnant Illegal Immigrants Are Mistreated in Custody

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) this week debunked claims made by Democrat Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA), including his assertion that illegal immigrant pregnant women are being mistreated while in DHS custody.
Ossoff this week shared a report titled “The Abuse of Pregnant Women & Children in U.S. Immigration Detention,” claiming to have found “credible reports of human rights abuses” at the hands of DHS since President Donald Trump took office in his second term.
His report reads in part, “Through interviews, analysis of public reports, and site inspections, the Senator’s staff has received or identified 41 credible reports of physical and sexual abuse, 14 credible reports of mistreatment of pregnant women, and 18 credible reports of mistreatment of children in immigration detention.”
It provides a few specific stories, claiming that one pregnant woman bled for days before she was taken to a hospital, where she was then — allegedly — left alone to miscarry for 24 hours with no water or medical intervention.
