In a disturbing trend, a New York court is drawing attention for its handling of child migrants, many of whom are being deported without access to legal representation. The court's policies have been criticized by advocates, who argue that depriving unaccompanied minors of their right to an attorney undermines their ability to navigate the complex immigration system. As a result, many children are being sent back to their home countries without a fair chance to make their case for asylum or other forms of relief. The Guardian's investigation sheds light on the inner workings of this court and the consequences of this approach, raising questions about the treatment of vulnerable children in the US immigration system.
