Private prison company sells two of California’s immigrant detention centers to the feds

CoreCivic has sold two of its immigrant detention centers in California to the Department of Homeland Security while retaining operational control, raising questions about the true implications of privatization in immigration enforcement. This move underscores the ongoing debate over the ethics and effectiveness of private prisons in handling sensitive detention operations. With CoreCivic still managing the facilities, the sale doesn't necessarily halt the controversial practice of profiting from immigrant detention, sparking further scrutiny on accountability and reform in the immigration system.
