Attempted suicides, fights, pain: 911 calls reveal misery at #ICE’s largest #DetentionFacility
The emergency calls from a #Texas #immigration #DetentionCenter included repeated suicide attempts by detainees, seizures, injuries from fights and a pregnant woman in pain. Data from more than a hundred 911 calls, interviews with detainees and court filings offer a portrait of overcrowding, medical neglect, malnutrition and emotional distress.

How a Tiny, Inexperienced Firm Landed a $1.3 Billion #Detention Deal To hold 5,000 human beings.
by Samantha Michaels, November+December 2025 Issue
Excerpt: "When the Trump administration awarded a $1.26 billion contract this summer to build and operate a new tent city #detention center in #Texas, it made headlines, and not just because the facility, located at the #FortBliss Army base, was expected to be the biggest of its kind in the country. The company that won the job, #AcquisitionLogistics, was so small it operated out of a single-family home in #RichmondVA. Almost nobody had heard of it. 'A random house…just won $1.26 billion from #ICE,' wrote the New Republic.
"Whereas many companies with ICE contracts had long histories with immigrant detention, including private prison giants such as GEO Group, Acquisition Logistics had no prior experience in incarceration. Previously, its biggest federal contract was $16 million, and CEO #KenWagner is circling retirement at 77. Over the summer, the company’s website was inaccessible to the public, with the header 'Site maintenance in progress.' Archived screenshots showed the firm specializes in supply chain management. Could it safely operate a 5,000-bed detention facility?"

#Secrecy seems to be the hallmark of both #DetentionCenters and #Datacenters! Sneaky, sneaky...!
Mystery surrounds #RichmondVA-area home tied to firm behind $1.2B Army #Texas tent-camp contract
By: The Associated Press
Posted 3:36 PM, Aug 28, 2025WASHINGTON (AP) — "When President Donald Trump's administration last month awarded a contract worth up to $1.2 billion to build and operate what it says will become the nation’s largest immigration detention complex, it didn’t turn to a large government contractor or even a firm that specializes in private prisons.
Instead, it handed the project on a military base to Acquisition Logistics LLC, a small business that has no listed experience running a correction facility and had never won a federal contract worth more than $16 million. The company also lacks a functioning website and lists as its address a modest home in suburban Virginia owned by a 77-year-old retired Navy flight officer."

A ‘Shameful’ Legacy: #Texas Has Officially Opened an #ICE #DetentionFacility at Site of #WWII #InternmentCamp
#CampEastMontana is now the largest #immigrant detention facility in U.S. history, but it’s just one of 19 sites that will add a total of 37,649 new beds for ICE detainment — a 105% increase in the state’s capacity.
by Leslie Rangel August 18, 2025
Excerpt: "In #ElPaso on Sunday, the #Trump Administration opened the doors to Camp East Montana, the largest ICE detention facility in the country’s history. It reportedly cost $1.2 billion under a U.S. Defense Department contract.
"The new facility is at Fort Bliss, one of five sites where Texas held detainees of #Japanese descent, as well as immigrants from #Germany and #Italy — including #AmericanBorn civilians — during #WorldWarII, according to the National Parks Service and The El Paso Times."

“At one point he said he overheard a security guard talking about bets made among the staff over which detainee would be next to die by suicide. The guard said he had paid $500 into a pool, with the total pot riding on the outcome. The talk was particularly jarring, he said, because he had contemplated suicide himself.”

The medical examiner in El Paso, Texas, has ruled that Geraldo Lunas Campos's death was, in fact, a homicide. Lunas Campos died Jan. 3 at the Camp East Montana site at Fort Bliss in El Paso. He's the one who ICE claimed was trying to commit suicide, so the staff at the facility restrained and ultimately killed him to stop him from killing himself. So even if he did want to commit suicide, that would only mean that he died anyway, but with more pain, less agency, and less dignity.
I'm curious what the consequences will be for the medical examiner, but regardless, I do know that there's no way this administration is going to take action to stop people from dying at disproportionate rates at Camp East Montana unless they're somehow forced to. Maybe the courts can do that, but it's just as likely that they can't or, if they can, that it won't be until after the camp has claimed even more lives.

…#GeraldoLunasCampos, a 55-year-old Cuban man who was detained at #CampEastMontana in #ElPaso, #Texas died during an interaction with guards after being placed into solitary confinement, according to the government [so grain of salt]. A fellow detainee who said he witnessed the incident claimed Lunas Campos had been asking for his medication.

A #homicide ruling would almost certainly draw attention to #CampEastMontana, a colossal makeshift tent “encampment” [#ConcentrationCamp] on the #Mexico border where immigrants have reported substandard conditions & physical #abuse, & #ICE’s own inspectors have cited dozens of violations of federal #detention standards.
