Judge Timothy J. Kelly, a Trump appointee, wrote that the government had given dubious justifications for removing the children that “crumbled like a house of cards.”
A relative of an unaccompanied minor deported from the United States reviewed the list of those deported outside La Aurora International Airport in Guatemala City last month.
A report filed to Congress on Tuesday alleges the Trump administration concealed data showing that dozens of children it sought to deport faced serious harm back in Guatemala.
A report filed by the Government Accountability Project, a whistle-blower protection group, said at least 30 of the 327 children the government cleared for imminent removal had “indicators of being a victim of child abuse, including death threats” in Guatemala, based on the government’s own findings.
