More than 100 immigrants found locked in Houston, Texas house

Police and federal immigration authorities found 108 immigrants locked in a squalid home in south Houston on Wednesday. The 93 males and 15 females, including children as young as five years old, came mostly from El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras and Mexico, according to authorities. They had been held against their will for days in the small, single-story house with one bathroom, no hot water and little food.
The horrific discovery is an indictment of the immigration policies of the Obama administration, which continues to deport immigrants in unprecedented numbers. Undocumented immigrants and their children, seeking jobs and a better life in the US, become prey of smugglers and human traffickers as they seek entry across the Mexican border.
