Migrants at a new detention facility in the Florida Everglades filed a lawsuit claiming they have been denied access to lawyers and the courts in violation of their constitutional rights.

The location of Trump's immigrant detention center has a painful history of incarceration, abuse, and private interests.

It seems that the DeSantis administration just pulled more than a dozen contracts tied to the Everglades Immigration Detention facility from a public database of state contracts. These contracts total more than $200 million in taxpayer spending, and they are public records.

Detainees held at Florida’s controversial immigration detention facility known as “Alligator Alcatraz” are suing the Trump administration, alleging inhumane conditions and unlawful confinement.

In the heart of the Florida Everglades, a battle is brewing that could redefine the meaning of sovereignty, environmental protection, and cultural preservation.

In pursuit of immigration enforcement, the DeSantis administration quickly seized Everglades land to construct the center. A fleet of trucks transported crucial equipment into the sensitive area. Meanwhile, environmentalists sued to prevent the facility from operating, citing potential ecological damage.

Without permanent structures, electricity or running water, logistical headaches have emerged at “Alligator Alcatraz.”
