The fathers were returned to the Karnes County Residential Center in south-central Texas on Thursday, following a night of fear and worry. RAICES staff attorney Ryan Clough said an ICE officer at the Karnes center told him that the fathers refused to “go with the flow” and weren’t taking their kids to classes or other activities. He said he could not imagine being separated from his child again without being able to say goodbye. The next day, the fathers were returned to the Karnes center and reunited with their kids, but were still not given an explanation, the dad on the call told reporters. In a statement given to HuffPost on Friday, ICE said that about 40 men detained at the Karnes County Residential Center “were involved in a disturbance” on Wednesday.
