Camp East Montana Crisis

Inside the nation’s largest immigrant detention center in El Paso, Texas — Camp East Montana — just under a year in operation, detainees are facing a nightmare: three deaths, a measles outbreak, and systemic abuse. Legal groups including the ACLU and Texas Civil Rights Project have filed a sweeping class-action lawsuit, accusing federal authorities of violating Fifth Amendment rights through inhumane conditions, excessive force, and starvation-level rations. Detainees describe being treated like “political pawns” and enduring beatings and solitary confinement for basic needs. With lawmakers calling it “purgatory” and urging closure, this case could reshape how the U.S. handles immigration detention — and whether anyone else has to suffer what’s already happening behind these walls.
