A prematurely born infant and her 17-year-old mother spent seven days being almost entirely neglected in Border Patrol custody, according to lawyers who visited an immigrant processing station in McAllen, Texas, on Tuesday and Wednesday.
The baby, barely a month old, was wrapped in a dirty towel, wore a soiled onesie and looked listless, said one of the lawyers, Hope Frye. The mother was in a wheelchair due to complications from her emergency C-section and had barely slept ― the pain made it too uncomfortable for her to lie down, the immigration and human rights attorney said.

My guess is that the shelters are overrun and understaffed. CPS is indeed state run so it might not have jurisdiction over a federal facility. We're simply not prepared to handle what we're getting.

It is inhumane what is happening to people there.
And of course there's the people picking and choosing which babies to care about.

This is what happens when thousands of people show up and overwhelm resources.
