The Southlander

We just got an email from the lawyers at Public Justice that our motion was granted to unseal footage, emails, reports, and logs related to a 2021 use of force incident at Adelanto, one of ICE’s main detention centers in Southern California. GEO Group, the private security company that operates the facility, has until July 10 to turn over the records.

Our mission to provide more transparency to the public and hold powerful actors accountable will not be impeded, even if we have to go to court to obtain the necessary records.
