Putting a face on the US crime against humanity in Texas

This young girl was imprisoned more than six months in the T. Don Hutto prison near Austin, Texas, where migrant and refugee infants and children are imprisoned. The for-profit prison, like the Raymondville tent internment camp for migrants in Texas, is profiteering from the migrant racism and xenophobia in the United States. Children at Hutto were given spoiled milk, forbidden toys, and mothers were sexually assaulted and chained to their beds during medical examinations.
