Florida plan for Alligator Alcatraz' migrant jail sparks chorus of outrage
Briefly

Environmentalists, immigration advocates, and a Native American tribe have condemned a new outdoor migrant detention camp in the Florida Everglades, termed 'Alligator Alcatraz.' Operated by ICE, the facility will house up to 5,000 undocumented migrants, facilitated by a site seized by the state under the authority of Governor Ron DeSantis. Critics argue that the camp's location, exposed to extreme heat and dangerous wildlife, marks a severe violation of humane treatment standards. Florida's attorney general dismissed the criticisms humorously, highlighting the camp's geographical challenges in a provocative manner.
'There's no way in and no way out. The perimeter's already set by Mother Nature. People get out, there's not much waiting for them other than pythons and alligators.'
