Immigrants decry conditions at former prison, ICE’s largest detention center in California

California’s largest ICE detention center, a former prison in the Mojave Desert, faces complaints of poor conditions from immigrants fighting deportation.

More than 100 detainees staged hunger strikes this month, protesting inadequate medical care, lockdowns and prison-like treatment at the CoreCivic-operated facility.

The facility opened without city permits as part of the Trump administration’s expansion of immigration detention nationwide to accommodate up to 100,000 people.


Men sleep in locked cells every night on bunk beds with thin cotton blankets. They walk in straight lines with hands behind their back to the razor wire-enclosed “yard.” Guards carrying handcuffs pat them down. There are head counts, lockdowns and “segregation” units.

But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

I'd be crabbing too if I came to America illegally and expected to live in five-star hotels, with room service, and spending money but got put in a prison facility. savme

That sounds like an every day, ordinary prison. :shrug: Maybe they shouldn't have broke the law. And I'm sure they will deported to their home countries that are idyllic very soon. So hang in there!! /s
