Nine young people brought to the US illegally as children voluntarily crossed the Mexican border. When they asked re-entry to the country where they've been raised if not born, they were placed in detention. We update the actions — and the risks — taken by so-called "Dreamers" who've become political activists. Also, investigation of how sexual assault cases are handled by USC and new details on how the LA Sheriff's department hid a federal informant from the FBI.

On our rebroadcast of today's To the Point, since the George Zimmerman verdict, polls show a sharp divide between blacks and whites when it comes to the justice system. President Obama has tried to explain why blacks are so angry. Will another "national conversation" make things better or worse?
