What happened

Well supportedReported by 6 independent outlets

A whistleblower report detailed extreme overcrowding at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Miramar, where 342 people were held despite a maximum capacity of 50. Detainees were reported sleeping chained on the floor in cells with overflowing human waste. Separately, a case in New Jersey showed that an individual detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents was transferred to solitary confinement at Elizabeth Detention Center after protesting inhumane conditions at a facility run by GEO Group.
