Democratic Gov. Mikie Sherill cited safety concerns following the deadly events in Minneapolis as she called for the closure of the detention center in Newark.

La tensión aumentó el fin de semana tras enfrentamientos entre manifestantes que mantienen una vigilia frente a la instalación y agentes del ICE.

Advocates for people in ICE detention say they’ve heard complaints of “inedible food” and “limited access or no access to medical care” from people in custody.

Democrats alleged that immigrant detainees inside Delaney Hall received poor food and care, but DHS says that is not the case.
