Will criminal charges of child abuse be filed

Against ICE and the others who have neglected, abused and, in some cases “misplaced” (I.e sold) immigrant children? What about the 2000 Missing children? Will they be found or forgotten? This is not over anymore than a genocide is over when power changes hands. There still needs to be a reckoning, otherwise it could happen again, this time to YOUR children when you are hauled away in handcuffs for a political crime.

There seemed to be a good argument that contracted companies and employees, as well as federal employees, could face criminal charges. I can't find it atm but if I can I'll come back and post it.

People working in those capacities should be aware of those possibilities.
