The government is said to be trying to locate those parents. But until they do, hard to reunite them.
Some of the parents were under arrest for other charges. And one the idiots couldn't find.

(14,113 posts)8. trDump can not meet the court ordered deadline to reunite the families...

All for the good of the kids.
