Due to these horrid conditions, death, suicide, and attempted suicide are all too common in GEO-run facilities.

The Deyton Detention Center is no different, according to the detained immigrants we have spoken to. They tell us that the food is inedible, they are yelled at and cursed at by the officers, and they are put on lock-down for many hours straight.

There is inadequate medical, dental, and mental health care. One detained immigrant told us that they have to wait a minimum of a week before being able to go to the medical unit and that there is no daily sick-call procedure.

Many Muslim immigrants detained at the facility face challenges practicing their faith. For example, they are denied access to halal food and are not allowed to pray together on Fridays as encouraged by their faith.

Grievances that detained immigrants file are ignored by the officers. One man told us that he could see the grievance box was filled to the top with complaints, but that no one has picked them up since he arrived at the detention center more than two weeks ago.

Detained immigrants are further isolated at Deyton due to its restrictive visitation policy. Immigrants have to mail a form to their potential visitor, wait to receive the form back, and then get it approved by an officer. This process could take up to two or three weeks.

By the time the visitor is approved, the person detained may already be deported.

In light of this, we are asking the Clayton County Commissioners to stop letting the GEO Group use the facility given the prison corporation’s horrific track record and its abominable treatment towards immigrants detained at the facility.

And we're asking Congress to cut funding for ICE, an agency that thrives off of a culture of secrecy and abuse. The evidence is indisputable; ICE must be abolished. #AbolishICE

This agency has a history of atrocities, including killing the 16-year-old Guatemalan migrant Carlos Gregorio Hernandez Vasquez who was quarantined & left in a cold cell instead of being given care for the flu.
