On Friday, the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) released details of sexual misconduct involving unaccompanied alien minors in care-provider facilities, documenting more than 100 substantiated incidents from mid-2015 through the end of 2017. At least 135 incidents were substantiated by the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), a division of the HHS, with the vast majority involving offenses by an unaccompanied child against another, the HHS report said. Two were arrested, including one who received 10 years in prison for attempting to coerce or entice an unaccompanied child to engage in illicit sexual activity. Overall, the agency received 1,069 allegations of sexual misconduct for fiscal year 2017 but only a fraction of those were substantiated. The vast majority (79 percent) were unaccompanied child-on-unaccompanied child incidents, as was the case for the 1,779 allegations for the June 2015 to December 2016 period (86 percent) reported by HHS.
