Associated Press: "Largest housing provider for migrant children engaged in pervasive sexual abuse, US says"
Earlier this week, the Department of Justice filed a lawsuit in which it alleges many cases of sexual abuse and harassment by Southwest Key Programs Inc., the largest provider of housing for unaccompanied migrant children, as Paul J. Weber and Valerie Gonzalez of the Associated Press reported.
"Southwest Key Programs Inc. employees, including supervisors, raped, touched or solicited sex and nude images of children beginning in 2015 and possibly earlier, the Justice Department said in a lawsuit filed this week. At least two employees have been indicted on criminal charges related to the allegations since 2020."
