UPI reports:
Hundreds of migrants arrested under Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's "catch and jail" border security push have been sitting in prison for weeks with no charges filed against them, and dozens were imprisoned for more than a month without being appointed lawyers.
There's more:
Most of the men are Latino, and many don't speak English. Arrested on the border and dropped in prisons hundreds of miles away, they've spent weeks or months with little to no legal help, few opportunities to talk to their families and often fewer chances to find out what is happening to them or how long they will be imprisoned.
Imagine that.
