      We were able to obtain a list of each and every single ORR facility in the United States. Shiloh is one of only two medical treatment centers. But this medical treatment center is a mostly a bunch of trailers in rural Texas. What's more: AT LEAST ONE CHILD HAS DIED AT SHILOH.

      Our tax dollars are paying to send very little children to Shiloh, which has received more than $25 million in the past five years. This little Garifuna child, originally from Honduras, was NINE YEARS OLD when he entered. I've examined hundreds of documents related to his story.

      I obtained text messages where this child’s mom, Maribel Bernardez, was given instructions by her son’s case worker at Shiloh to wire money across state lines to buy her son things from outside. There’s no government oversight of this. But I obtained the Western Union receipts.pic.twitter.com/5XONySnh1f

      Maribel was sometimes able to see her son by video. He was "hypnotized and lethargic,” she told me. She demanded to see what he was on. Someone from Shiloh sent a photo from a computer. When he came home, she put his drugs away. They're in an overflowing giant freezer bag.

      Maribel NEVER authorized Shiloh to medicate her child. What’s more, she begged them to stop. This is the affidavit Shiloh staffers sign as if they are the “Parent, Guardian, or Conservator.” Actual parents like Maribel never even see this form. “What’s this? she asked me.pic.twitter.com/98DLgDTNg5

      The first time I spoke with Maribel's son, I asked him to tell me about a day at Shiloh. He left in April and he remembers quite a bit. Like brushing his teeth. Getting dressed. GETTING PHYSICALLY ASSAULTED BY A STAFFER. He mentioned it casually and says it happened all the time.

      This exclusive story, a deep investigation into what’s happening at these facilities beyond the headline story of cages and foil blankets, was reported with @TexasTribune.https://www.texastribune.org/2018/06/20/separated-migrant-children-are-headed-toward-shelters-history-abuse-an/ …

      Where were y'all crackerjack #media journos at during #Obama's 6 years of #ChildAbuse against detained #ImmigrantChildren 2009-2014? Why didn't you FOIA any of the 30,000 USG docs as .@ACLU did, why didn't y'all report the child abuse??https://www.aclu.org/news/aclu-obtains-documents-showing-widespread-abuse-child-immigrants-us-custody …

      Hi Rhonda. If you look through my timeline, you’ll notice I did make clear that a lot of this happened under Obama. I know you may not be familiar with my work, but I consistently reported on what happened to immigrant children under the previous administration.

      I will give your work some reading, ty. I appreciate your reply. Any idea why the Democrat leadership, the Dem Congresspersons expressing outrage over Trump's policies said nothing in those 6 Obama years? More importantly, why a significant report was just published in May 2018?

      That’s a good question. I haven’t asked any lawmakers ahead of publishing these initial findings. I will. I wasn’t previously investigating these shelters but I did investigate “iceboxes” under Obama. I tend to go where the stories take me. Thanks for engaging with me :)

          Thanks for your investigating. Please make it known this all took place in Obama's years. Its hard to change things with all the money they are getting and Dem's fighting every step of the way.
