exican officials have deported more than 13,000 of the 14,000 undocumented, unaccompanied minors who have been caught at Mexico’s southern border, a rate significantly higher than in the United States, according to government sources familiar with the situation.
Additionally, Mexican authorities have deported more than 64,000 of the estimated 69,000 adults that have been detained along their southern border this year.
Those numbers stand in stark contrast to the deportation of minor immigrants from the United States: None of the more than 60,000 Central American minors detained this year have been deported.
According to a Department of Homeland Security spokesman, those minors — who are estimated to total as many as 90,000 by year’s end — must first make their way through the legal system, which has seen significant backlogs, because they qualify to apply for asylum status.
“They are subject to removal, and are all issued Notices to Appear in immigration court, but due to the current backlog in the courts a [minor] encountered this year wouldn’t have yet had their day in immigration court. So all the [minors] encountered this year still have their cases pending,” the spokesman told BuzzFeed.
According to Mexican government sources, the vast majority of unaccompanied minors detained at the country’s southern border comes from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador, the majority are between the ages of 12 and 17, and most are boys. Government officials provide the minors with temporary shelter, food, clothing, and medical treatment while in custody.

And the have deported the remaining 7 percent through their northern border.
If Mexico stops them at their southern border...how come so many make it to our southern border?
But they said this can’t be done!
This is such total B.S.
Look at the photos of those kids on the top of rail cars, and tell me the Mexican government didn’t facilitate this.
We should have filed a diplomatic objection the Mexico’s actions. The fact that we didn’t is another in a long string of insults to the American Citizen.
Mexico is at war with us, and we haven’t the stones to react.
“If...”
Now you have your answer. They didn’t stop them. You knew it too.
This report does nothing more than make the writer out to be an idiot, a willing dupe, a liar, or a paid disinformation specialist.
Obama does NOTHING with Mexico.
In fact, even as I write this one of our marines is rotting in their jail for MONTHS for making a wrong turn.
What does Obama do? He spends DAYS and HOURS in the golf course and does not even give the President of Mexico a call.
You’re absolutely right.
What a disgusting POS we have in the White House.
If it were an accused Islamic adherent terrorist they would have gotten more support.
All people have to do is ask, What do you mean by "unaccompanied minor?" Can you for a second picture any "child" walking thousands of miles "unaccompanied?" No - me neither. It is the lie of the year! These children are not unaccompanied. They are being trafficked in by someone. The Obama admin is complicit in this human trafficking scheme.
Yea, they deport them all to the USA who is more than willing to accept them.
I don’t read any of this stuff any more. I am certain that absolutely NONE of it can be truthful.
By their own whining account, ‘journalists’ have said/are saying they have been shut out of the border areas and they have no access to individuals who come here or to the personnel who ‘process’ them.
What does that leave, but LIES.... RUMOR... DISINFORMATION, PROPAGANDA... what ever you want to call it... but NOT the truth!
This was organized, coordinated, and executed with Obama’s willing participation. Other governments were involved. It was a coordinated attack on the United States.
Children didn’t all of a sudden have a mass psychological connection and start walking.
They were solicited, collected, shepherded, and transported to the U. S. They were fed, had ways to go to the bathroom. They were clothed.
This wasn’t a 48 hour event. It took them a week or more to come all that way, perhaps two or more.
Obama sought funding rather than come up with a plan to deny entry. He signed off on this before the kids started their trip. It was a an attack on the U.S., and he played along. He is unfit to be president, pure and simple.
Those Mexicans must be a bunch of Hispanic hating, Republican Tea Partiers.
I agree...
Mexico outsources their own poverty! Why would they take on more?
Every other country I know of polices its borders. Only American ruling authorities tell their subjects if they object, they will be called racist. And only American subjects are so afraid of that name that they submit to their rulers.
Mexico & Guatemala announce agreement to make illegal passage to U.S. easier Jul 9th 2014
Let me guess... a good deal of them sport the most fashionable tatoos.
Oh, I thought it was the 93 percent deported through their northern border.
