"Tania Warner described the treatment of her and her daughter as “horrific” from the start. After being held for about 5.5 hours at the checkpoint, they were sent to the first facility, where “every single person … was handcuffed – including children”, the mother said.
There, they slept on the floor on 2in mats and the lights were on 24 hours a day. Agents would not let Warner call a lawyer and constantly pressured her to sign documents agreeing to “self-deport”."
