Migrants attempting to cross the U.S.-Mexico border with children will be asked to submit to a voluntary DNA test in order to prove they are related, Department of Homeland Security (DHS), officials said Wednesday.
The officials said the pilot program could be set up as soon as next week, but did not specify at which locations the tests would take place so as "not to change the flow of people" approaching the southern border.
Individuals who consent to the DNA test will be asked to swab their cheeks and those of the children with them before presenting the evidence to officials from DHS or Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). The DHS officials said the testing would take an average of two hours to complete, after which the genetic data is to be destroyed and won't be used as evidence in any criminal case.
Information from the tests will be used to investigate individuals suspected of human trafficking, identity theft and other crimes. The officials added that someone claiming to be a child's legal guardian will have to provide supporting documentation.

This sounds really inexpensive. The SOBs are concentrating on the wrong damned thing. They welcomed in another 600 in El Paso today.
What the frack took them so long? Seriously!
It means that when adults + children come across together, we can determine if they are related or are fraudulent. It can also determine if someone is related to humban or drug traffickers and how close is the relationthip.
This might turn kinda interesting. Some guy who has brought his two kids with him, and believed that he was the father to both of them for at least a decade....then finding out on the border that the wife cheated, and neither kid belong to him. Would make a good Jerry Springer show.
And would mean the kids would stay and he’d be deported. LOL
I think that what took them so long is that thenresident as graceful as it seemed he was under the f ing squeeze went down to the border the day with what’s her name Nielsen after the mueller Report came out, forever the next day (prob the same day) told her to fire her deputy and now they can move along.
He’s probably interviewing by fire Allowing people to prove their ingenuity and most importantly their loyalty
I look for things to happen in the next few months into the next year on this.
God bless Donald Trump and his family. And the USA
Sorreee. thenresident
The President
Grrr
forever
Firing her the next day
I mean all it involves is a swab from your mouth alongside the inner cheek.
Why voluntary? Why not mandatory?
*********************************
Voluntary DEFEATS ITS PURPOSE. Just as the invaders are told the “magic words” to say for their asylum claim, so the invaders will be told to not agree to the DNA test unless they are DEFINITELY RELATED to the accompanying child(ren).
Let’s not be STUPID!
Precisely.
This buy-a-kid to gain asylum business is an atrocity.
Here is a timeline and explanation of the Jenny Flores case which was finally settled by no lesser legal light than Janet Reno.
Don’t miss the craziest of the crazy decisions that came from an Obama appointed judge (quell suprise) in California, aptly named Dolly Gee.
Her Honor took it upon herself to decide that “without reasonable delay” = exactly 20 days. Don’t ask me why.
The child must be released within 20 days; irrespective of whether the child’s parents or guardians remain in detention or not.
Child predators, pornographers, and traffickers cheered Judge Gee’s wisdom.

Free food, free housing, free meds, now free dna kits
While they’re at it, can they please, pretty please with sugar on top, implement the Visa Entry/Exit tracking system.
I’m not sure if they already to do it or not, but a those handheld biometric devices are pretty neat as well. Fingerprints and retinal scans. They are quick and efficient. Hopefully they’re already using that stuff.

Who cares about their relationship? Whatever their relationship is they should be refused entry. Idiotic to waste time and money on this childish crap.
CLOSE THE DAMNED BORDER
