Government Gave No “Notices To Appear” To Thousands Of Illegal Alien Minors Apprehended At Border

[UncleBeer 244]

Why would the preznit's administration keep track of illegals? It's all in the plan, and it's going swimmingly.

The Department of Justice does not have receipts for more than half of the unaccompanied alien children apprehended at the southwest border by Border Patrol since the start of fiscal year 2013, government records show.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection data show more than 85,000 total apprehensions of unaccompanied alien children during fiscal year 2013 and fiscal year 2014 through June. Information from the same time period provided to National Review Online by the DOJ’s Executive Office for Immigration Review shows 41,592 total receipts marked as juvenile in immigration courts. Kathryn Mattingly, spokesperson for EOIR, tells NRO the receipts refer to new Notices to Appear (NTA) — the document the Department of Homeland Security uses to charge an illegal immigrant with being removable from the United States.

EOIR has recorded 20,814 receipts marked as juvenile in fiscal year 2014 as of June 30, but Border Patrol recorded 57,525 apprehensions of unaccompanied alien children during the same time frame. This means immigration courts have receipts for fewer than four out of every ten unaccompanied alien children apprehended by Border Patrol this fiscal year. Mattingly said EOIR stands behind the numbers of receipts it has recorded, but would not speak about the difference between the number of juvenile receipts and CBP’s apprehension data.

Why bother giving them notices? They're not going to show up anyway. I applaud the DOJ for doing its part to save the trees and not waste paper.

ETA: Maybe the EPA will give them an award.

If an airline lost track of more than 60% of the unaccompanied minors they were charged to look after the government might step in and do something.

Taking Hanlon's razor ( "Never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity.") into account, it's a fair bet that this was always the preznit's express intent: to flood the country with 'future Democrats'.

Hey, when he threatened "transformation", what did y'all think he was talking about?

[lostinblue 1,989]

there are no mass influxes of Unaccompanied Alien Children.....It is mother and children crossing. That is why no one gets inside the "shelters" Read the stories... The buses transporting these "children" have blacked out windows.No cameras inside... Stories been posted about that..... Families crossing the border gets one reaction from the American public... A little 9 year old child by herself gets another... I am sure there are a high number of kiddies are crossing... But someone has orders not to write down the adults that are with them. ... Because that does not tug at the heart strings of the liberal base.

wait - what ?

back at post #1 - I am shocked that fingerprints are not made, footprints are not made, and blood taken for dna stamping, with records kept in perpetuity.

wth?

How about tattoos? That's tested and it worked to keep track of undesired folk in the past.

[Darnell 8,478]

I'd be all for tattoos, but I think the ACLU would put a stop to it, quickly.

Just cause something worked for the Nazis, doesn't mean we have to adopt it here in the USA.

sheesh.

"Wth" yourself. No-one's suggested any of those things. The border patrol is under instructions to not even ask for any identity info, much less DNA...

So: what you wrote: hyperbole, sarcasm, or were just being arch?

[Darnell 8,478]

none of that - I personally want a way to track these illegal aliens. I know the methods exist, I'm just bummed our gov't ain't doing anything on it.

[Mr. Big Dog 10,747]

Tracking, that's what the other guys wanted too. Remember that these are people you are talking about. Real, actual human beings.

Who exactly are "the other guys"?

[Mr. Big Dog 10,747]

Who exactly are "the other guys"?

those that used tattoo's for tracking purposes. they didn't see the tracked as humans either.
