Two Immigrants Say U.S. Agents Drugged Them

Sometimes, you get up in the morning, read the headlines and are simply left speechless; stunned, beyond all reason, given what you already know.

NPR : Two Immigrants Say U.S. Agents Drugged Them:

In Los Angeles, the unusual case of two immigrants whose deportations were botched by U.S. immigration officials has allowed a rare glimpse into internal proceedings within the Department of Homeland Security.

The men say that U.S. immigration officials drugged them in order to ease their removal from the country — but airline officials ultimately put a stop to the deportations.

Both immigrants are back in Los Angeles, appealing their deportations. And they've now obtained government medical records that seem to confirm their accounts.
