Mariee Juarez
Mariee was a healthy, happy child when she arrived in the U.S. When Mariee was first processed by medical personnel at the facility, they noted no health issues before clearing her for custody. Juarez and her daughter were assigned to a single room with five other mothers who each had a child, several of them ill, the claim said. One of the toddlers had a constant cough, runny nose and was “very lethargic.” Juarez was told by one of the mothers that the boy became ill upon arriving at Dilley and was denied medical care.
