Watchdog: Admitted Killers, Gang Members Resettled During Obama-Era Child Migrant Surge

Admitted killers, human smugglers and gang members were among thousands of unaccompanied minors the Obama administration processed during a surge of migrant children across the southwest border in 2014, according to government reports obtained by a conservative watchdog group.

Judicial Watch, a Washington, D.C.-based investigative organization, published nearly 1,000 Significant Incident Reports (SIR) Monday, after a three-year delay in an open records request to the Department of Health and Human Services. The SIR summaries cover a six-month period from May to November 2014.

They show widespread criminality in the UAC resettlement program, with migrant children admitting to serious crimes and also to being victims of sexual abuse at the hands of U.S. government contractors and employees.

“The Obama administration presided over a humanitarian and public safety nightmare in its handling of unaccompanied alien children,” Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said in a statement. “The incident reports also support the Trump administration’s contention that the UAC crisis, which continues, includes murderers, rapists, drug smugglers and human traffickers being routinely allowed into the United States.”
