You can’t detain a 5 year old child.
If a masked man grabs a kid off the street and puts him in an unmarked car… that’s kidnapping.
If that child is then sent to another state? That’s trafficking.
Language matters here.
What happened to Liam Ramos should outrage us all.
Re #liamramos, a story from the past, with some similarities
My father Francesco ("Chino") was born in 1922 in Italy.
In 1940 the fascist government sent him a letter requiring him to enroll in the military for WW2. He didn't and hid.
A fascists' squad went to his home and took his younger brother Togno (10) until my father turned himself in.
They sent him to a correctional camp. He fled and became a partisan leader against fascism.
