Documents show CBP agents are writing false court hearing dates on paperwork to send migrants back to Mexico under the Migrant Protection Protocols program.

Asylum seekers who have finished their court cases are being sent back to Mexico with documents that contain fraudulent future court dates, keeping some migrants south of the border indefinitely, records show.

This has happened both to migrants who have been granted asylum and those who had their cases terminated — meaning a judge closed the case without making a formal decision, usually on procedural grounds. Additionally, at least one migrant was physically assaulted after being sent back to Mexico this way, according to her lawyer.

On Sept. 27, the family was given a document that read, in part, “At your last court appearance, an immigration judge ordered you to return to court for another hearing.” That piece of paper told them to return to court on Nov. 28. After being returned to Mexico, the mother was stabbed in the forearm while protecting her children from an attempted kidnapping. She still has stitches from the knife wound, Ghazialam said.

The woman’s lawyer, Jodi Goodwin, remembers hugging her client after the decision and arranging a place to meet after authorities released her later that day following processing. “It was total chaos for 24 hours to try to figure it out,” Goodwin said. “It shouldn’t be like that, especially when CBP is blatantly lying. They are creating documents that have false information.

“But this appointment does not exist,” said the woman’s New York City attorney, Rebecca Press. “If you check with the immigration court system there is no January hearing date and the case has already been terminated.”

This is what happens when you breed a culture of hatefulness and intolerance toward others.

This is what happens when standards are lowered by an agency. Don’t forget bribes and human trafficking.

This is a shame, but often times very true, America has told a Lie or Two...

14 out of HOW MANY THOUSANDS of notices? The shitrag, LA Times, prints mistakes more than that in one day.

There’s always that pesky apply to come in the legal way and wait option.

So proud.

For Mexico ambush victims, there was no safety in numbersThe Mexican government has suggested the attack on members of a Mormon community was a case of mistaken identity. The victims' relatives say the group was targeted. What’s being missed is that all the “recreational” drug users in America and elsewhere have blood on their hands when killings by drug cartels take place. Demand drives supply. How recreational is being ultimately responsible for the killing of human beings? There’s more to this story ... This group committed crimes in the US They lived in Mexico & were not just visiting ... that doesn’t mean Mexico is safe ... Drug Cartels are very powerful there.
