The decision to clear the facility comes amid several federal lawsuits alleging inhumane and unconstitutional conditions, including overcrowded, unsanitary environments, inadequate food, and excessive force by guards. The detention center was envisioned by then-Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem as a replicable model for state-run facilities near airport runways to enhance deportation efforts. Despite its intended purpose, Homeland Security classified most of the jailed individuals as non-criminals, and the project is expected to cost $1 billion by July 2027.Environmental groups and the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians of Florida also filed lawsuits, asserting the facility failed to conduct environmental reviews or obtain permits, causing harm to the protected Big Cypress National Preserve and its endangered species.
