Members of Congress React to PBS Story on Border Abuses

Washington, DC–(ENEWSPF)–July 26, 2012.  In response to a PBS investigation that documented allegations of widespread abuse by Customs and Border Protection (CBP) personnel, Members of Congress expressed grave concerns about the agency’s commitment to preventing the mistreatment of detained immigrants.  The documentary, which mirrors the findings of multiple independent inquiries by non-governmental organizations, found evidence of physical abuse, deprivation of food and water, sexual assault and even torture by members of the nation’s largest law enforcement agency.
