Abstract

The article discusses the implications of a trend of increasing numbers of immigrant children migrating to the United States from Central America as of July 20, 2014, focusing on an accelerated process of initial screenings for the immigrants once they are detained by U.S. Border Patrol. Topics addressed include a 2008 U.S. anti-human-trafficking law, young immigrants who are eligible for special juvenile asylum status, and attempts to flee gang violence in Central America.
