A grand jury in Florida accused the Biden administration of “facilitating” the trafficking of child refugees.
The allegations came five months after Florida Governor Ron DeSantis launched an investigation into the matter.
In the report issued by the panel, the latter reportedly denounced the Biden administration, specifically the Homeland Security Department and Department of Health and Human Service’s Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR).
According to the scathing report, “in reality, ORR is facilitating the forced migration, sale, and abuse of foreign children, and some of our fellow Florida residents are (in some cases unwittingly) funding and incentivizing it for primarily economic reasons.”
“If any resident of Florida exposed U.S.-born children to this process, they would be justifiably arrested for child neglect or worse,” the report added.
The grand jury found that the aforementioned federal agencies, through White House’s policies, are encouraging unaccompanied children from Central and South America to make dangerous trips to the U.S. border.
The report also discovered that many of the children are abandoned to unvetted adults across the border.
“This process exposes children to horrifying health conditions, constant criminal threat, labor and sex trafficking, robbery, rape, and other experiences not done justice by mere words,” the report states and added that the grand jurors were repulsed and horrified by an alleged testimony and video documenting the treatment of foreign children.
However, at the time of writing, it remains unclear as to what witnesses testified before the grand jury.
“The report reveals that the grand jury issued subpoenas and requests for documents and information to Florida non-governmental organizations doing business with ORR but were stymied,” Patriot Alerts reported.
“One was fired for reporting a case of suspected human trafficking (of over 100 UAC shipped off to a single house in Texas) to a government hotline because her ORR superiors refused to investigate the matter,” the report added.
Furthermore, the report also claimed that “We received, instead, a response from the organizations that they would be purposely ignoring some of those requests under orders from ORR, with whom they have a contractual relationship.”
In a report published by Patriot Alerts, “One NGO official reportedly told the panel their organization would rather operate an unlicensed an illegal child placement facility than risk losing ORR’s funding, the report asserts,” adding that the “ORR actively discouraged its employees from questioning the process even internally, even firing some.”
