Migrants detained in Florida treated ‘less than human’: Report

Three Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention centers in Florida have been accused of keeping migrants in conditions that violate human rights standards, according to a report released Monday.

The report, entitled “You Feel Like Your Life Is Over,” focused on the Krome North Service Processing Center, the Broward Transitional Center and the Federal Detention Center, all in Florida.

The report, published by Human Rights Watch, makes several allegations, including that detainees were shackled for long periods on buses, migrants were forced to sleep on concrete floors under fluorescent lighting and that many migrants were denied access to basic hygiene and medical care.
