Myth
- "I’ve been to a facility here in San Diego. The kids have video games good food, beds, clothing. You name it." – Mike Loftus, Tweet, 2019-06-18
Reality
At least one of the camps is experiencing conditions of extreme filth:[1]
Children as young as 7 and 8, many of them wearing clothes caked with snot and tears, are caring for infants they’ve just met, the lawyers said. Toddlers without diapers are relieving themselves in their pants. Teenage mothers are wearing clothes stained with breast milk.
Most of the young detainees have not been able to shower or wash their clothes since they arrived at the facility, those who visited said. They have no access to toothbrushes, toothpaste or soap.
