CBP holding people in inhuman conditions

The U.S. District Court for the District of Arizona issued an order finding that CBP is violating the constitutional rights of immigration detainees by holding them in conditions of confinement that fail to meet their basic human needs, and directing CBP to take certain steps to improve conditions in those facilities, known as hieleras. The injunction stems from a class action lawsuit filed in June 2015 by a group of immigration detainees who alleged that they were subjected to inhumane and punitive conditions during their confinement in Tucson Sector CBP holding facilities.

CBP opens another holding facility

CBP announced that it is setting up a temporary holding facility adjacent to the Donna-Rio Bravo International Bridge in Donna, Texas, to provide additional capacity for unaccompanied children and family units in CBP custody at Ports of Entry and U.S. Border Patrol stations in the South Texas area. The temporary site can currently hold up to 500 people, but CBP stated that it will regularly assess whether to expand this facility or keep it operational based on the number of people arriving in the area.

No surprise CBP does not want to wear body camera

CBP released an announcement that it is continuing its review of the use of body cameras, but is not deploying body cameras in the field at this time. CBP also released its body-worn camera feasibility study, stating that its Working Group considered and rejected several different deployment options, including a pilot program and broad-based deployment, before ultimately recommending a risk-based, measured deployment option.

CBP Abusing its power?

A Los Angeles Times special report examines 450 uses of Tasers, hand-held devices that deliver a paralyzing electric charge, documented by CBP agents from 2010 to 2013. The analysis found that, at least 70 times, CBP agents fired the devices at people who were running away, even though there was no struggle or clear indication that agents were in danger, according to use-of-force reports. At least six times, agents used the weapons against people who were trying to climb over the border fence back into Mexico.
