http://news.bloomberglaw.com/daily-labor-report/detained-immigrants-faced-invasive-medical-care-probe-finds I was just wondering what happened with this, the other day. I think we heard about it, two years ago, but nobody cared about what was happening to immigrant women in our "care".
Immigrants in a US detention facility endured excessive, unnecessary gynecological procedures, often without consent, according to a bipartisan Senate investigation that offers the starkest details yet of alleged mistreatment.
The probe centers on the Irwin County Detention Center in Georgia but raises red flags about inadequate safeguards throughout the immigration detention system, a senior Senate official said in an exclusive interview with Bloomberg Government before the release of the findings.
The Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations — a powerful panel of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee — will present at a Tuesday hearing the conclusions of its 18-month investigation into conditions at the Irwin County Detention Center. Chairman Jon Ossoff (D-Ga.) and ranking member Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) led the review.
