The US Government Has Lost Over A Thousand Children--And It Isn't 'Legally Responsible'

The US government says it has lost track of nearly 1,500 immigrant children. But according to BuzzFeed, officials aren't too bothered by that figure. That's because once the children are placed in temporary homes, they're not "legally responsible" for them. The revelation was made during a congressional hearing last month. It comes as officials continue to struggle with the number of minors who make the dangerous trek into the United States.
