ACLU Sues over Legal Black Hole at "Alligator Alcatraz" ICE Jail

Support our work: https://democracynow.org/donate/sm-de... We speak with ACLU lawyer Eunice Cho about a new federal lawsuit brought on behalf of immigrants held at the detention center in the Florida Everglades dubbed "Alligator Alcatraz." The detainees allege being routinely subjected to human rights abuses, denied due process and access to legal counsel, while families have complained of being unable to find their loved ones "disappeared" into the facility. "These are basic constitutional rights that are afforded to anybody that is held in government custody. And what was happening at Alligator Alcatraz is simply unprecedented and not normal," says Cho, senior counsel at the ACLU National Prison Project.
