In a new report, Homeland Security Department (DHS) General Inspector found that American immigration and customs implementation (ICE) is unable to effectively monitor the location and status of any alien child unaccompanied (UAC), which enters the US illegally and releases from custody.
General Inspector Joseph V. Cuffari said in a report that he transferred over 448,000 UAC for the custody of the US Ministry of Health and Human Services between the Fiscal Years in 2019 and 2023. From there, most of the UAC were released by sponsors.
However, over 31,000 of these 448,000 children were released to the addresses that remained empty, lacking in the apartment numbers or were unquestionable.
Ig also noted that the ice does not always know the place of the UAC who escaped while in custody of HHS.

Cuffari said an investigation into the matter Found ice He has not issued a notice that all UAC appears (NTA), which would create the award of the date of immigration court by the Ministry of Justice (Doj), and since January this year has not served NTAS over 233,000 children unaccompanied.
From the UAC to which NTAS was delivered before October 2024, over 43,000 did not appear for its scheduled court dates.
The report also found that Ice was not always informed of the safety or status of children, unless he received advice. However, these questions, IG said, happened because the ice has not always informed the sponsors’ locations by other federal agencies.
Cuffari admitted that the staff could control any UAC was limited, and without that ability, there was no certainty that children were safe from trade, exploitation, forced work or criminal activities.

“The complete failure of the bidet administration on the border had catastrophic consequences, and it is shameful that even innocent children were unaccompanied at the intersection,” Gonzales told Fox News. “The fact that we cannot locate tens of thousands of these minors in the US is completely unacceptable, because it is likely that many of these children ended up in dangerous situations. There is no answer is unacceptable, and it’s time to put our heads to solve this problem for good.”
