Sending people they have claimed without evidence are MS13 gang members to a “prison” (torture murder facility - you look at the Google earth images of what looks like a puddle of blood by the facility and the fact that they’ve confirmed something like 100 people died there last year, that there is no release, and that they’re cramming people into such small living spaces the EU would consider it unethical for transporting livestock and tell me what you think)
They also just deported several children, who were American citizens. One of them was a toddler with cancer.
I also read an account from a doctor that worked there that inmates with conditions like diabetes are not given their medication. That people are beaten upon arrival, to the point that some die. That people experiencing medical crises in the cells are ignored, left to die until the guards pick up the body the next day.
Even if everyone there was a gang member (there’s no due process in El Salvador, and there hasn’t been due process with the people we’ve been sending there) - that’s not how human beings should be treated.
You are right. There needs to be a public follow-up of some of these decisions to assess their multi-degree effects.
These seem to issues of subordinates blindly following orders or miscarrying out their directives.
In addition there are coordinators/facilitators who need to be kept on tighter leashes and strictly supervised.
Prison is meant to be for rehab, a place to tame "wolves" in a sandbox. Beyond issuing decrees, there needs to be civilian driven investigations into some of these places. They are funded by tax-payers and should be transparently accountable to them, similar to investors in the private sector.
It's that or some territories voluntarily separate due to operational disagreements.
Yeah, that's called a fucking trial.
