- Florida opens Everglades immigration detention center with inhumane conditions — Florida officials opened a hastily-constructed immigration detention center in the Everglades, converted from a rarely-used airport in eight days. Within one week of opening, detainees reported lack of running water, scarce food, maggots in meals, giant insects, medication deprivation, and extreme temperature fluctuations. Immigration attorneys reported being denied access to clients and confidential phone calls. The facility, designed to hold detainees in chain-link cells with tent coverings, costs an estimated $450 million annually to operate and may not withstand hurricanes common to the region.
