First-hand accounts from immigrant families at detention centers in Texas, including CoreCivic's Dilley facility, reveal allegations of poor conditions such as adults fighting children for clean water, despondent toddlers, and denied medical exams. These testimonies were included in a motion filed by advocates seeking to prevent the termination of the Flores Settlement Agreement.
The Flores Settlement Agreement mandates that immigrant children detained in federal custody be held in safe and sanitary conditions. Advocates reported that 40 out of 90 families who spoke to RAICES since March expressed medical concerns, with some detailing inadequate water quantity and quality.
CoreCivic referred questions to ICE regarding the allegations, which ICE stated it does not comment on pending litigation. These serious claims and the ongoing legal challenge pose significant reputational and operational risks for CoreCivic, particularly as the administration seeks to expand family detention and potentially allow for indefinite detention under new legislation.
