As the number of Central American women and girls crossing into the U.S. continues to spike, so is the staggering amount of sexual violence waged against these migrants who are in search of a better life.
According to a stunning Fusion investigation, 80 percent of women and girls crossing into the U.S. by way of Mexico are raped during their journey. Thats up from a previous estimate of 60 percent, according to an Amnesty International report.
This year alone, immigration authorities expect more than 70,000 unaccompanied minors to come through the United States unlawfully, the majority of whom are from Central American countries of El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras. The number of unaccompanied Central American girls caught at the Southwest border has rapidly outpaced the number boys, according to a July Pew Research study.

But while many of these girls are fleeing their homes because of fears of being sexually assaulted, according to the UNHCR, they are still meeting that same fate on their journey to freedom.
Rape can be perpetrated by anyone along the way, including guides, fellow migrants, bandits or government officials, according to Fusion. Sometimes sex is used as a form of payment, when women and girls dont have money to pay bribes.
The assaults are so common that many women and girls take contraceptives beforehand as preventative measures.
Whats particularly disconcerting is that the fact that these figures may not even represent the full grim picture.
There is one unit in Mexico that is committed to investigating and prosecuting crimes against migrants, Erin Siegal McIntyre, one of the Fusion reporters who wrote the sexual violence story, told HuffPost Live.

Well.
That’s why they have to travel in organized caravans. For safety.
Or so the Left will say.
And this is what the democrat party is complicit in.
I suppose to the people behind organizing these “caravans” the end justifies the means.
Well, first, not our problem. Second, I doubt this exaggerated statistic. And, third, these are mostly very ugly women. Sorry. Anyway, they can avoid all this by staying home. And, importantly, identify the rapists and execute them. There should be zero tolerance anywhere and everywhere for rape.
According to feminists groups, 110% of women are raped in college. Men are bad, they rape everyone, all the time.
Gee, that's about the same percentage as rapes on college campuses, if you ask the Feminazis.
Just another reason to BUILD THE DAMN WALL.
Yes but it's the LIBERALS exaggerated statistic.
Why are liberal giving us exaggerated statistics?
Are they lying for the 'greater good'?
Trump answered this back in 2015...

“Who’s doing the raping?”
Sounds like it’s damned if you do (travel to the US) or damned if you don’t (stay home).
Except, as of today when Trump is giving his national address to the nation the liberals are now telling us their own statistics are wrong.
As always they want it both ways.
Our problem starts when they cross the border. That they get robbed, raped, or killed on the way is NOT our problem. It is a problem they can avoid by staying home. And at home, they could choose to rise up and put a stop to the mess in their cesspool countries. Fix their problems at home! Heck, ask us for arms to do so—put an AR15 into every grandmother and grandfather’s hands with plenty of ammo. It might be messy but bet they can clean things up pretty quickly. And we need to deport everyone back, armed and supplied, to help fix their home countries.
well if they are raped “crossing into the U.S.” then if they shouldn’t try to cross.
Wow!
If true, WHY WOULD WE WANT ALL THE RAPISTS IN OUR COUNTRY?
Change the law... NO ONE GETS TO STAY HERE WHILE WAITING FOR A COURT APPEARANCE.
If we passed laws saying anyone caught in this country illegally would be deported - that day... these caravans would stop. The women in the caravans would not get raped coming here because they would NOT be coming here in the first place.
Change the law... NO ONE GETS TO STAY HERE WHILE WAITING FOR A COURT APPEARANCE.
Works for me.
This is just fine with Democrats, as any child resulting from this rape will be born in the U.S. and become an American citizen. The child will then grow up carrying the defective genes of the rapist, become a Democrat, and vote accordingly.
Are they saying when Trump said they weren't sending their finest is true?
Which means a lot of the men are rapists.
