Lost, Abandoned and Forgotten

DHS Loses 32K Children to Trafficking and Slavery

Friends,

I am outraged and heartbroken! I must share this with you now with a heavy heart.

It's been a year and a half of waiting, only to confirm the nightmare we feared all along—at least 32 thousand children abandoned at the southern border were lost and left to fend for themselves by the very authorities tasked with their safety and protection. In November 2022, Project Veritas exposed the horrifying truth: unaccompanied children discarded at the border were being sex trafficked, enslaved by unvetted and non-citizen sponsors, and then lost to the system.

The shockwave was felt across the nation, igniting fury and action from those who couldn’t believe such atrocities were happening on American soil. Over half a million voices cried out in outrage—one for every child gone missing.

Yet here we are, 18 months later, and the so-called "investigation" results have done nothing but confirm the terrible truth we knew back in November. These children are still missing, and the horrors they’ve likely endured during this time are unimaginable.

We expected more—we expected these children to be found, to be saved, to hear more than just the bureaucratic failures of the agencies involved. But we got a disgraceful acknowledgment of incompetence, a shrug from the system that failed them. I’m disgusted, and you should be, too.

The Inspector General's audit is a damning revelation of ICE’s inability to track these vulnerable children once they were handed over to Mayorkas’s DHS Circus and the utterly worthless Department of Health and Human Services. Over 448,000 unaccompanied minors were transferred to HHS between 2019 and 2023, yet 32,000 failed to appear for their immigration court dates because their so-called "sponsors" didn't bring them—and HHS, the very department responsible for their care, lost track of them entirely. How is this even possible?

How do 32,000 sponsors and every person involved in HHS and DHS who allowed this to happen not face jail time until these children are found?

The report’s focus on administrative failures is a disgrace when the absolute priority should be finding these children who are at high risk for trafficking, exploitation, and forced labor. Instead of answers, we’re left with the same horrifying reality we started with—a growing number of unaccompanied minors entrusted to incapable hands and an unknown number still missing, their fates uncertain.

Here is the testimony of two young girls. In their accounts, "Aunt" refers to any adult female; in both instances, the "Aunt" mentioned is not the child's relative.

Child One: “An aunt [sponsored me] but kicked me out of her house. She was pimping me, and I didn’t like that. She would pimp me to men.”

Child Two: “I just escaped one night. I told her [aunt], ‘I’m going to the laundromat.’ She [aunt] went to the laundromat but couldn’t find me there. Later on, she called Immigration.”

How many more children will be lost before something is done?

• Biden Administration’s open border policies are fueling human and child sex trafficking, with migrants repaying cartels for their illegal entry.

• The Administration prioritizes avoiding lawsuits over protecting children from sex slavery.

• HHS has knowingly placed unaccompanied minors into the custody of criminals, including sex traffickers and slave laborers put into debt bondage, and threatened to be recommended for deportation if they don’t comply.

• Sponsors are typically unrelated non-citizens lacking a legal presence themselves.

• Once children are placed with sponsors, HHS loses control and cannot intervene.

• The U.S. government is effectively paying to place children in the hands of criminals.
