The Carrizo Springs detention center in Texas that was opened in response to the squalid conditions in which children were being detained by the Border Patrol is closing as early as this week after less than a month being open. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) opened the facility in late June... But by the time HHS opened Carrizo Springs, the huge numbers of children crossing the U.S.-Mexico border had fallen as they typically do during the summer months because of high temperatures. HHS is also processing children more quickly after rolling back guidelines on fingerprinting and background checks, according to AP News... Roughly 400 children were detained at Carrizo Springs in total. BCFS had a contract that could have run through January and paid $300 million but holding children at emergency facilities like Carrizo Springs costs an estimated $750 to $800 a day.

Could have them sent to Sandals Resorts for that.
You have a valid point.
Needed to hire Joe Arpaio.
Article says it was closed because it was no longer needed.
From the article....
....According to the Associated Press, the government facility will be empty of children by Thursday, according to Kevin Dinnin, the CEO of the nonprofit BCFS that was contracted to run the camp. Staff will leave by the end of the week.
Its still unclear whether some of the trailers and supplies brought to the camp will remain on site so that it can be quickly re-opened if its needed in the future, AP News reported. But its extremely costly to keep the children there, so the facility was closed because it wasnt needed, according to Dinnin.....

Btw....BCFS stands for Baptist Child and Family Services.
This was the group who aided 0bama and his original migrant hordes, once they reaced TX.
Extensive research was done, at the time, here on FR on BCFS, Catholic Charities and other invader aiding groups.
They get paid MILLIONS of $$/year, compliments of OUR tax dollars. I see they have also expanded WORLD WIDE, now....money flowing in.
Thank You! :-)
