Original Note:
Family separation has been a policy since 2017. The reasons for this policy were to: not detain children with adults while they are being processed and to prevent children from being trafficked with unrelated adults who are posing as family members. https://bipartisanpolicy.org/blog/why-are-families-being-separated-at-the-border-an-explainer/
