Trump administration's 'zero tolerance' border prosecutions led to time served, $10 fees

USA TODAY analysis of court records show zero tolerance crackdown meant border courts sentenced people to no more jail time and charged them a $10 fee

Ten bucks and time served (and never see your kids again)

The Trump administration border crackdown that has separated thousands of children from their parents is built on a mountain of small-time criminal prosecutions that typically end with people sentenced to spend no additional time in jail and pay a $10 fee, according to a USA TODAY analysis of thousands of cases.

The “zero tolerance” push along the U.S. border with Mexico was meant to deter migrants by bringing criminal charges against everyone caught entering the United States illegally. In addition, it served as the legal machinery for splitting children from parents who were accompanying them across the border. Since the crackdown began in May, border agents have separated about 2,300 children from their families.

The administration gave little sign that it would ease that stance Thursday despite an international backlash so intense that even some of the president’s allies had threatened to break with the White House. The Justice Department said there would be “no change” in its enforcement push, and Trump insisted the government must to maintain “a very tough policy” along the border.

The crackdown has produced a high-velocity assembly line of prosecutions that has sped thousands of migrants through crowded federal courtrooms to answer for the misdemeanor of having entered the United States illegally

An examination of thousands of pages of federal court records show that those cases are seldom more than a symbolic undertaking. In many cases, migrants are taken from an immigration holding facility, bused to federal court, quickly plead guilty to having entered the country illegally, and are sentenced to whatever time they have already spent in the government’s custody and a $10 court fee. Then they’re returned to immigration authorities to be processed for deportation.

USA TODAY examined 2,598 written judgments in border-crossing cases filed in federal courts along the border since mid-May. In nearly 70 percent of those cases, migrants pleaded guilty and immediately received a sentence of time served, meaning they would spend no additional time in jail. Another 13 percent were sentenced to unsupervised probation, including a condition that they not illegally re-enter the United States. In both cases, that meant they would immediately be returned to immigration officials to be processed for deportation, leaving them in essentially the same position as if they had not been prosecuted.

Still, Meyers and other defense lawyers said that by the time some of their clients returned to the immigration facilities where they had been held, their children were gone.

So far, there’s no sign that the separated families that were put in the system before Trump pumped the brakes have been grandfathered into the new “keep them together” executive order. Those kids are still stuck, and there’s a possibility that some of them may never be reunited. All over an infraction that only warrants a fine and an absolute maximum of six months in prison.

Big problem here. The " argument" is already framed. It's not a real situation. Anyone can create a logic conundrum and then stand thumbing their nose at those who stop to look at it. It adds no value to either " side."
