The warden at a privately run immigrant detention center in San Diego County has authority to decide how to investigate rape reports there. A San Diego County supervisor wants to revisit the agreement giving that power to CoreCivic.

A U.S. subsidiary of GardaWorld, a security firm headquartered in Montreal, recently won a contract worth up to $1 billion to develop and carry out some operations at a new detention centre in Arizona. It’s not the firm’s first involvement in facilities like this in the U.S. — involvement that’s raising questions north of the border.
This story is deeply disturbing. It is absolutely inexcusable and unconstitutional to deny incarcerated people access to their attorneys for more than 2 months.
P..S. The phone system work-around is NOT suffixient, because calls made to attorneys in this way are being recorded, which violates attorney-client privilege.
