@ReichlinMelnick see @DrChristineMann thread on missing asylum seekers in Nuevo Laredo. INM is apparently transporting them away from the US border so they miss their asylum hearings.

Replying to @BuddJenn @DrChristineMann
Yep, all the way to Chiapas in some cases! I am still very much trying to figure out what (if any) plan is there to bring them back for hearings. So far it's only happened in Nuevo Laredo (and maybe also in Matamoros) but information on the ground is incredibly scarce.

Folks OTG have confirmed to us that it's also happening in Matamoros.

Wow, thanks! To Chiapas as well or just also to Monterrey?

From my experience & talking w/agents, there’s a couple of reasons: it makes them miss their asylum hearings & therefore voids them, it wears them down so they give up & it keeps the press & volunteers from seeing & reporting the horrible conditions CBP is returning them from.
