Claim 1: “saying she saw no choice but to name a new enforcer to protect kids it has detained”
CORROBORATED
The claim that Judge Gee appointed a 'new enforcer' (special master/monitor) to protect detained children is corroborated by multiple sources. One source explicitly links the appointment to her lack of choice due to the administration's treatment, and another specifically names the appointees: Andrea Sheridan Ordin as special master and Paul H. Wise as independent monitor.
