'When they finally believe they have arrived in safety, they may find themselves separated from their loved ones and locked in undignified conditions,' the U.N. commissioner said. 'This should never happen anywhere.'
Many migrants and refugees set off on"perilous journeys with their children in search of protection and dignity and away from violence and hunger," Bachelet said in a statement.
President Trump said Sunday that migrants were coming from"unbelievable poverty" and that"those are people that are very happy with what's going on because, relatively speaking, they're in much better shape right now" in U.S. custody. The Homeland Security report was the second by the inspector general's office to criticize conditions at temporary detention centers in Texas where migrants are held.
Last week's report said several Border Patrol facilities in south Texas were dangerously overcrowded. Detainees banged on cell windows, shouted and pressed notes to a window for inspectors, according to the report. A photo showed a man holding a piece of cardboard with one word:"Help."Inspectors also warned that many children had no access to showers and were being detained long past the maximum of 72 hours. Five children have died in Border Patrol custody since December.
