Lawyers: Detained Families Get Little Food And Water

The Guardian reports:

Immigrants, including families with small children, have been held in a cramped office basement for days without enough food and water after being detained by authorities in raids in Los Angeles, lawyers have said.

One family with three children was kept in a Los Angeles-area administrative building for 48 hours, said lawyers from the Immigrant Defenders Law Center (ImmDef).

The children, the youngest of whom is three, were given just a bag of chips, a box of animal crackers and a mini carton of milk in a day. Agents told the family of five they did not have any water to give them during their first day in detention, and gave them just one bottle to share on the second day.
