NEWS Infant Ripped From Mother’s Breast At Immigration Detention Center, Mother Handcuffed For Resisting

“The separation of young children and their families at immigration detention centers is a prime example of how the United States is currently failing humanity, and this latest story is no exception. While being detained in Texas, a mother says federal authorities removed her nursing infant right from her breast. The mother has been awaiting prosecution for entering the U.S. illegally.

The mother, an undocumented immigrant from Honduras, told attorney Natalia Cornelio she’s been detained under the Trump administration’s zero-tolerance policy of referring anyone caught crossing the border illegally for federal prosecution.

While the federal authorities reportedly tore the infant from her mother’s breast, the mother resisted — because that’s what any loving mother would do.

She was handcuffed for it.”
