ICE’s $2.2 Billion Prison BuyUp
"Locked up and locked in. The Department of Homeland Security spent $2.2 billion in the past two months purchasing four immigration detention centers from a single private prison company. The firm CoreCivic — which President Donald Trump traded stock in as recently as last winter — saw its cash on hand grow tenfold thanks to the lucrative sales (and, in part, to a failed Boston developer with a questionable past). By outright purchasing facilities instead of contracting with privately-owned prisons, the Trump administration could potentially bypass state laws intended to curb abuses and neglect, such as labor violations and inadequate medical care, and claim broad federal immunity from lawsuits."
