Migrant children housed in a tent camp inside a Texas Army base languished for weeks because of dysfunction and inadequate staff training, leading to distress and in some cases panic attacks, a report released Tuesday by the Health and Human Services Inspector General found.
The inspector general report further substantiates whistleblower allegations, first reported by Reason last May, of substandard conditions at a large tent camp for migrant youths set up by the Biden administration. Federal employees and audio recordings of staff meetings obtained by Reason described underwear shortages, filthy living spaces, and inappropriate contact between staff and minors.
