Protesters outside the Department of Homeland Security processing center in El Paso in June. By Joe Davidson Joe Davidson Columnist focusing on federal government issues Email Bio Follow Columnist February 26 at 5:32 PM Did Immigration and Customs Enforcement turn a blind eye to abusive conditions confronting thousands of immigrants jailed without being convicted of a crime? Apparently so, according to a report by the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Inspector General.
More than 35,000 detainees were in 211 facilities at the end of fiscal 2017. Only five of the jails, with less than 10 percent of the population, were owned by ICE. The report refers to “detention facility contractors,” but many were local and county jails. Of 106 contracts the inspector general reviewed, just 28 included the “quality assurance surveillance plan” needed for recommending financial penalties.
It’s pretty clear that they did.
“ICE Ignored the Health and Safety Standards for Jailed Immigrants.” There, fixed it for you. When you see something, state something.

OBAMA WAS PRO BORDER PROTECTION
My guess on this would be if Trump had anything to do with it you can bet safety standards did not happen. That's Trump. Bend/break laws and rules. It's what he does and how he lives.
They always have it's only an issue because people get to see it on the news too.
Democrats are executing babies in delivery rooms....do you honestly think anyone gives a damn about comfort standards for illegal aliens!!! NO!!!
They're criminals!! You want to put them up in a 4 star hotel!!!
No ! Next question.
Did the “jailed immigrants” ignore entering this country legally?
Is this a rhetorical question Because we all know the damn answer.
ask obama
Please help to get this investigated and save a life. Please help to enforce US laws, regulations and constitutional rights for a US citizen
Please help to get this investigated by US authorities. Please help to save a life. Please help to enforce US laws, regulations and constitutional rights for a US. Citizen
Hmmm
Yes
How about human rights ? Deprived them of touching drugged them couldn’t speak to each other they had lice lacked bathing nutricious food medicine phone calls to parents God help every perverted ICE and Prez on down Republican need to be tried & jailed in the Immigrant tents
Probably. Should their be punishment? Yes!
Did ICE..
When non citizens are seen as non humans, all kinds of horrors can occur
I wouldn't doubt it. ICE looks at immigrants as if they are no one. Immigrants are people as well. How would some of the ICE agents like to be treated the way immigrants are being treated? They wouldn't like it.
This happens in all of our jail systems don’t make it a race thing talk about the real issue of a poor overpopulated jail system where the humanly needs of prisoners aren’t met not the liberal hogwash of racism. (Jail is a punishment though not paradise). Stop complaining

I bet 1K yes
We all know the answer to that.
They should ignore them completely. ICE has no lawful power unless used to cool a soft drink.
