1. I have seen reports of something called the "Blue Butterfly Zone" in the Dilley concentration camp in Texas.

"The Blue Butterfly Zone" is, apparently, a place where teen-aged girls are separated from the rest of the population, and no one is allowed to see them but ICE agents. https://www.ibtimes.co.uk/blue-butterfly-zones-dilley-ice-facility-1781001

Pro Publica did a story where one of their reporters applied to be an ICE agent. There is absolutely no background checking. If I recall the article correctly, the applicant had a phone interview and was told where and when to report. The staff of those places is likely full of criminals.

I'm sorry, but we all know exactly what is going on in that place. And if it's happening there, it's happening elsewhere too.
