51:36Now PlayingBreaking News Live Jim Acosta is in Dilley, Texas outside the privately run ICE detention center in Dilley.
Jim Acosta reports live from outside the Dilley Family Detention Center in Dilley, Texas — a private, for-profit prison run by CoreCivic that serves as the country's only family immigration detention facility, housing children as young as infants. Immigration attorney Chris Godshall-Bennett joins to explain the conditions inside, describing Dilley at its core as "a jail for children," while Acosta recounts being blocked by private security and confronted by local police simply for attempting to approach the facility. With DHS planning to expand similar facilities nationwide, Acosta issues a direct challenge to Senator Ted Cruz and other lawmakers to visit Dilley and see the conditions for themselves before supporting policies that detain migrant families.
