If you abduct your child and dump it in a foreign country, it is a crime. If you hire a firm to do it, it is legal! Why!!

Recently the police in California stopped a van where a father and his daughter had abducted another daughter with the goal of dumping her at one of the low-budget holding camps marketed as rehab which are located in Mexico due to the low salary levels there and the local authorities lack of interest into what kind of businesses that operate in the northern part of Mexico.

The police took the poor victim into protective custody. Hopefully the girl will receive professional treatment for the illness, she suffer from (addiction from a kind of drug, which is recognized as an illness to be treated by doctors, not some random hired muzzle in Mexico).

But while the police now conduct an investigation into the matter, tons of youth are sent across the borders in the very same way. Restrained with handcuffs and shackles, in some cases gagged just as the victim in the case above.

The only difference is that the transport is handled by so-called approved transport firms. In some cases no background checks are conducted on the employees. In some cases they have been kicked off the police force or military for disciplinary reasons.

So why is an act which is illegal when it is done by parents or relatives suddenly legal just because there is a payment to a firm to do it. Should it not be the act itself, that should be illegal?

It remains a mystery why transport across state lines often in violation with the recommendation from the local school authorities continues to be legal.
