1/ NEW: A federal judge has ordered the federal government to stop drugging immigrant children without proper consent – and to remove them from a troubled Texas shelter. revealnews.org/blog/judge-ord…
2/ The move comes just a few weeks after we reported on allegations of abuse and forced drugging of migrant children at Shiloh Treatment Center near Manvel, Texas. revealnews.org/blog/immigrant…
3/ Attorneys for the government maintained that a psychiatrist at the facility had board certification to treat children and adolescents.
4/ But we found records indicating that he’d been practicing without this certification for nearly a decade. revealnews.org/blog/exclusive…
5/ Until kids are removed, the judge ordered #Shiloh to stop drugging them without consent.
6/ She also said the facility shouldn’t withhold drinking water or prevent kids from making private phone calls.
7/ Attorneys say they expect the ruling to help immigrant kids in detention in other states.
