    In the statement, the CBP spokesperson said the agency does not release information on those detained unless they are charged with a crime. He said further the agency does not release information on those determined to be “illegal aliens.”

    Great… so the only way others know that someone has been detained is if they’ve done something wrong? How messed up is that?
