(Worthy News) – The Trump administration will soon begin fingerprinting parents claiming custody of children who entered the United States illegally without an adult relative, officials said on Tuesday, prompting criticism that children may be abandoned by those who fear being identified and deported.

The children are then expected to show up to immigration court to fight their deportation cases. [ Source: Reuters (Read More…) ]
