Our Department of Health and Human Services is totally responsible for rampant child sexual abuse. It was inflicted by workers at Southwest Key Programs since around 2015. Employees of the “largest housing provider for unaccompanied migrant children” in America “sexually abused and harassed children in their care for at least eight years.” The Just Us Department made a big announcement “alleging a shocking litany of offenses that took place as the company amassed billions of dollars in government contracts.” Merrick Garland needs something to distract the press from the hit on President Trump. Especially, because everyone thinks he engineered it.
Sexual abuse of migrant kids
Trusted adults with “the largest” provider of shelter for unaccompanied migrant kids in the U.S. are responsible for hideous child abuse. Supposedly, employees “repeatedly sexually abused and harassed children in their care.”
On Thursday, July 18, a DOJ spokesunit brought a whole bunch of fancy graphics to show the press. They’re “alleging a shocking litany of offenses that took place as the company amassed billions of dollars in government contracts.”
Federal prosecutors declare that “Southwest Key Programs Inc. employees, including supervisors, raped, touched or solicited sex and nude images of children beginning in 2015 and possibly earlier.”

They wrote all the lurid abuse up in a lawsuit, filed this week. “At least two employees have been indicted on criminal charges related to the allegations since 2020.”
Even after the feds gave their press conference, It “was not immediately clear how many children are currently in Southwest Key’s vast network of shelters across three states.”
They can handle up to 6,300 children at a time. It’s also not clear how many of the kids were affected by the abuse. “In some cases, Southwest Key employees threatened children to maintain their silence.”
Easy to exploit
The sad bottom line is that migrant kids are simply easy to exploit and abuse. “In harassing these children, these Southwest Key employees exploited the children’s vulnerabilities, language barriers, and distance from family and loved ones.”
The company isn’t saying much. They’re “reviewing the complaint and disputed the portrayal of its care for children.”
They’re a nonprofit organization but their employees get paid well. They inked contracts with the Department of Health and Human Services to run “29 child migrant shelters – 17 in Texas, 10 in Arizona and two in California.”

That makes them “the largest provider of housing for unaccompanied migrant children.” One of the abuse locations is the shelter in Brownsville, Texas. That one’s “a converted Walmart with a capacity for 1,200.”
The lawsuit was filed in Austin, because that’s were Southwest Key is based. It details “more than 100 reports of sexual abuse or harassment.” For instance, “An employee ‘repeatedly sexually abused‘ three girls ages 5, 8 and 11 at the Casa Franklin shelter in El Paso, Texas.”
The 8-year-old told investigators “that the worker ‘repeatedly entered their bedrooms in the middle of the night to touch their private area, and he threatened to kill their families if they disclosed the abuse.‘“
