HHS Secretary Kennedy Stops Placement of Migrant Children in Shelters Where Alleged Sex Abuse Occurred

The Department of Health and Human Services (HSS) will stop placing Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) in care and placement shelters operated by Southwest Key Programs Incorporated. The move was announced as a measure by the Trump administration to end sexual abuse and harassment of UACs placed in the facilities during the search for sponsors in the United States.

Southwest Key operates 27 residential shelters that provide temporary living arrangements for UACs in Texas, Arizona, and California and has been the largest provider of such shelters for unaccompanied alien children in the United States. Southwest Key operates these shelters through grants from the HHS Office of Refugee Resettlement. These children are minors who enter the United States without parents or other legal guardians and lawful immigration status in the United States.

On Wednesday, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced the decision to stop placement and immediately relocate UACs currently in Southwest Key facilities to other shelters. In a statement announcing the decision to terminate placement of UACs at Southwest Key Programs, Kennedy stated the following, “This administration is working fearlessly to end the tragedy of human trafficking and other abuses of unaccompanied alien children who enter the country illegally.”

“For too long, pernicious actors have exploited such children both before and after they enter the United States. Today’s action is a significant step toward ending this appalling abuse of innocents,” Kennedy added.

Texas-based Southwest Key Programs Inc., which runs the impacted shelters, announced on Tuesday that it would furlough 5,000 employees working at the non-profit facilities nationwide. According to HHS records, Southwest Key received over $2 billion in federal funding for shelter services for UACs between 2021 and 2024 under the Biden administration.

Surrey Pride founder, 41, is found guilty of raping 12-year-old boy he met on gay dating app Grindr

The founder of an LGBTQ+ group has been found guilty of raping a 12-year-old boy he met on Grindr.

Stephen Ireland, 41, who co-founded Pride in Surrey in 2018, was convicted at Guildford Crown Court on Tuesday of raping the child at the flat he shared with David Sutton, 27, in Addlestone on April 19 2024.

Ireland along with Sutton, who was a volunteer for Surrey Pride, stood trial for a total of 38 offences between them, including conspiring to sexually assault children, arranging the commission of child sex offences and conspiring to kidnap.

The court heard the boy, 12, had met Ireland at his flat after messaging on dating app Grindr during which Ireland had suggested they kiss and watch pornography.

The child told police they had sex in the flat, smoked a bong and that pornography was played on a laptop, jurors heard. 

The trial heard how the pair discussed targeting children outside school gates while pretending to be a talent coach or music manager and how to avoid CCTV.

Ireland allegedly said in one of the messages ‘all I’m thinking of is making out with a 13’ and in another he told the volunteer ‘every day passes and I wanna do something terrible with you’, the court heard.

Sutton and Ireland also described themselves as ‘pedos’ in messages.

Judge who allegedly had a relationship with an accused child predator and let him out on bail is now accused of similar crimes

A Utah judge was put on unpaid leave after police accused him of committing several sex crimes involving children. The next day, a former fire chief from the same locality was charged with similar crimes. But court documents revealed an even deeper connection between the two men.

According to court documents obtained by KSL, a local NBC affiliate, Ned Brady Hansen, 54, was charged on Tuesday with eight counts of aggravated sexual exploitation of a minor. When Hansen was first arrested on Jan. 27 — when he was still Tremonton’s fire chief — investigators working his case asked a judge to hold him in custody without bail due to the nature of his alleged crimes.

That judge, Kevin Christensen, 64, let Hansen go free.

On Monday, Christensen was charged with seven felony sex crimes involving children and obstructing justice. And according to an affidavit for Hansen’s arrest, the two men had been engaged in a “sexual relationship,” KSL reported.

Cop Arrested for Child Sex Abuse, Planting Cameras in 6th Grade Girl’s Bedroom

Another day, another cop exposed for horrific crimes against children—this time, a high-ranking veteran of the Houston Police Department (HPD). Daryn Blake Edwards, a 32-year veteran and former captain, has been arrested and charged with aggravated sexual assault of a child, possession of child pornography, and sexual performance of a child—charges so vile they are difficult to stomach.

According to court documents, Edwards began molesting his victim—identified as Jane Doe—when she was in the sixth grade. Over the past year alone, she reported being assaulted between 85 and 100 times. The abuse wasn’t limited to physical assault; Edwards allegedly installed hidden cameras in her bedroom to record her without her knowledge, further violating her privacy and humanity.

A Predator in Uniform

The shocking allegations detail a pattern of systematic grooming and coercion. Edwards reportedly added his victim on Snapchat and Instagram, using the apps to send explicit messages and solicit nude photos. He even resorted to bribery, offering her money in exchange for sexually explicit images. Disturbingly, he allegedly threatened her with a folder of compromising photos, saying it would “ruin her life” if she didn’t comply.

Investigators discovered that Edwards kept multiple hidden cameras throughout his house, recording minors in various explicit situations. Police have since seized his personal and HPD-issued cell phones as part of the investigation, and his home in League City has been searched under a warrant.

A Long, Corrupt Career

Despite these charges, Edwards was not some low-level beat cop. He spent three decades moving up the ranks at HPD, overseeing divisions like burglary and theft, cyber and financial crimes, and Southwest Patrol. He was even promoted to assistant chief in 2020, before being demoted following the Astroworld tragedy. Despite his past disciplinary issues—including a 2023 written reprimand for policy violations—he remained in a position of power until his arrest.

This raises the question: How many red flags were ignored? How many other officers looked the other way? How long did this abuse go unchecked? These are the kinds of questions police unions and “thin blue line” apologists don’t want the public asking.

HPD has since announced that Edwards has been “relieved of duty” pending an internal affairs investigation—a toothless statement given the heinous nature of his alleged crimes. The reality is that police departments routinely protect their own, even when faced with overwhelming evidence of criminal behavior.

Consider the implications: This man had access to crime scenes, evidence lockers, and confidential databases for decades. He held a position of authority and public trust while allegedly committing some of the worst crimes imaginable. Yet, had he not been caught, he would still be wearing a badge today.

This case is yet another glaring example of systemic corruption within U.S. law enforcement. If a high-ranking police captain can get away with this for years, what else is happening behind closed doors?

Young Girl Whose Suicide the Media Blamed on Bullying About Family Being Deported Told Friends She Was Being Molested by Relative

The 11-year-old girl whose tragic suicide was splashed all over the media because she was allegedly bullied about her family potentially being deported by the Trump administration confided in friends that a relative was sexually abusing her.

The mother of Jocelynn Rojo Carranza participated in multiple interviews where she explained, in Spanish, that her daughter killed herself because she was being told by bullies that her family would be deported and she would be left all alone.

“The kids said because your family is Hispanic, that they were going to call ICE so her parents could be taken away and she would be left alone,” Marbella Carranza told Univision.

The Gainesville Independent School District confirmed that the girl was the target of bullies, at least one of whom was disciplined for their behavior. The district has not released details about what happened or what was said.

Carranza was found unresponsive at her home in Gainesville, Texas, on February 3 and she died in the hospital five days later.

LGBT Activist Arrested As Ringleader Of International Pedophile Network

In November 2023, the French National Police inaugurated its Office Of Minors (L’OFMIN) in an effort to dedicate much needed resources to tackling child abuse in the country that has been mired in social decay since President Emmanuel Macron took office in 2017. Just one month into its existence, L’OFMIN spearheaded a European-wide operation that resulted in the identification of hundreds of pedophiles, leading to dozens of arrested. The department has continued on in that mission with the arrests of several members of a human trafficking network of pedophiles based out of France.

The criminal syndicate had been operating between the northern French province of Loire-Atlantique across the country’s border with Belgium. Its horrific crimes are reminiscent of the Dutroux affair, one of the most infamous episodes of child sex abuse to ever come to light in modern European history. 20 years after Marc Dutroux was sentenced to life in prison for his child sex crimes, the prominent LGBT activist that authorities have alleged is the ring leader of the pedophile ring uncovered by L’OFMIN is poised to supplant Dutroux as the face of those heinous crimes.

French newspaper La Parisien reported that a “32 year-old family assistant in Loire-Atlantique” was arrested as the leader of the pedophile ring. While the suspects arrested have yet to be officially identified in the press, law enforcement officials who analyzed the child sex abuse videos posted on the dark web by the pedophile ring were able to identify them, leading to their arrests. L’OFMIN and Dutch authorities were tipped off after the videos were reported on the messaging platform Telegram. Those reports led to a forensic examination of the evidence that identified a medical bed being used in the torture of one of the children. They were then able to trace the purchase of the particular type of bed, which led them to the suspected ring leader of the network, Pierre-Alain Cottineau.

Cottineau gained notoriety in France for his activism as a pro-LGBT advocate. His rise in France’s far-left politic landscape took off in 2021 when he ran in departmental elections as part of the La France Insoumise party (LFI). His political ascendancy was shaped by years of LGBT advocacy, in which he founded several activist groups including the Oudon Solidarity and Mutual Aid Collective and the LGBTQI+ Association of Ancenis after being elected president of The Rainbow Shelter, a nascent LGBT rights organization working to combat homophobia and transphobia throughout France.

However, Cottineau’s reputation would not be defined by his political advocacy. In September 2024, the LGBT activist was arrested on sexual assault charges for the abuse of 4 year-old disabled child. Cottineau’s 2024 arrest came after videos of the abuse were uncovered by French authorities in the city of Nantes. The victim of the rape had been under the care of Cottineau, who was working as the caregiver of the disabled child after authorities placed her in his custody at his home. The victim was placed in Cottineau’s custody just 1 week after Child Welfare Services approved his application to become a foster parent, in which he specifically sought a license to take custody of children 6 years of age and younger.

Radioactive Oatmeal: The Shocking Story of How MIT, Quaker Oats, and the Government Exploited Children

In 1945, as the world was recovering from the devastation of World War II, a group of scientists at MIT conducted an experiment that would later be revealed as one of the most unethical studies in modern history. At the Fernald State School in Massachusetts, young boys—many of them vulnerable and voiceless—were fed radioactive oatmeal. The goal? To study how their bodies absorbed iron and calcium. But the real story here isn’t just about science. It’s about betrayal, exploitation, and a shocking disregard for human dignity.

This wasn’t some rogue experiment conducted in a hidden lab. It was a calculated effort involving respected institutions: MIT, Quaker Oats, and the U.S. government. Together, they crossed a line that should never have been approached, let alone crossed.

The “Science Club” That Masked a Dark Agenda

Imagine being a young boy, maybe 10 or 12 years old, told you’re part of something special. A science club! You get extra food, perhaps even a sense of belonging. But instead of being celebrated, you’re being used. The scientists behind this experiment weren’t just studying nutrition. They were helping Quaker Oats prove their cereal was healthy. That’s right—a corporate agenda disguised as research.

The boys were given oatmeal laced with radioactive isotopes. These isotopes acted as tracers, allowing scientists to track how iron and calcium moved through their bodies. But here’s the thing: radiation isn’t harmless. Even in small amounts, it can cause long-term damage. And these boys? They had no idea what they were consuming.

Guardians Left in the Dark

The guardians of these boys—parents or caretakers—trusted the system. They believed their children were in good hands. But the truth? They were lied to. Consent forms were vague, if they were given at all. No one explained the risks. No one mentioned the word “radioactive.”

This wasn’t just a failure of ethics. It was a deliberate choice. The researchers knew what they were doing. They knew the public would never approve. So they kept it quiet. They hid behind the guise of science and progress.

Biden Hangover, Part 1: “Trans Woman” Illegal Alien Charged With Rape Of Teen Boy In Harlem

This is the first of a three-part series demonstrating the awful predictability of leftist policy. Democrats allowed and even encouraged foreigners to cross the border illegally. Conservatives warned that the worst of the worst would flock here.

Even as ICE ramps up operations to remove all the human detritus, they are still committing the most heinous of crimes. Call it the Biden Hangover.

An illegal alien biological male was charged Wednesday with the rape of a teenage boy in East Harlem. The illegal apparently stalked the boy, following him into a public bathroom in Thomas Jefferson Park on Tuesday. After the sexually motivated attack, the boy left the park and found citizens who were able to contact the police.

Colombian Nicol Suarez, 30, was arrested the following day and charged with first degree rape. He was wanted in Massachusetts and New Jersey, and ICE had a issued a detainer for his arrest.

Letitia James Orders NY Hospitals to Continue Trans Surgeries on Minors

Democrats are sending a message: election or no election, executive orders or no executive orders, reality or fantasy: “This is our world, and you might be welcome to live in it, so long as you toe the line.” Make no mistake, they may have lost the White House, House, and Senate and elected David Hogg as the DNC vice chair, but they are digging in and remaining intransigent while they plot their return to power. And they aren’t content to merely lose their minds over confirmation hearings or the fact that the party is over at USAID. 

The AP reported that on Monday, New York Attorney General Letitia James sent a stern warning to the state’s hospitals. The warning came in a letter to the hospitals that despite Trump’s executive order to halt funding for transitioning treatments for minors, hospitals that did not continue what the Left refers to as “gender-affirming care” would be in violation of New York’s anti-discrimination laws. James commented, “Regardless of the availability of federal funding, we write to further remind you of your obligations to comply with New York State laws.” The outlet noted that hospitals in Colorado, Virginia, and Washington D.C. had hit the pause button on the procedures while they evaluated the order.

BOOM: Kash Patel Vows to Dismantle Child Sex Trafficking Rings and Expose Jeffrey Epstein’s Client List

Kash Patel, President Donald Trump’s nominee for FBI director, vowed to take down child trafficking networks during his confirmation hearing Thursday.

“I know that breaking up these trafficking rings is important to President Trump,” said Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.). “So will you work with me on this issue? So we know who worked with Jeffrey Epstein in building these sex trafficking rings?”

“Absolutely, senator,” Patel replied. “Child sex trafficking has no place in the United States of America, and I will do everything if confirmed as FBI director to make sure the American public knows the full weight of what happened in the past, and how we are going to [counteract] missing children and exploited children going forward.”

During his opening statement, the former chief of staff to Trump’s Acting Defense Secretary said he’d faithfully execute his duties to the Constitution and the American people.

“Protecting the rights of the Constitution is of the utmost importance to me, and has been every single time I’ve taken that oath of office,” Patel said. “The recent terrorist attacks in New Orleans tragically claimed the lives of 14 Americans, and serve as a stark reminder that our national security is at threat, both internally and externally. The FBI, the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Justice, where I served, play a pivotal role in securing our freedoms and our safeties for American citizens.”
