EXCERPT:
“This is a frivolous lawsuit. ICE is committed to transparency, and Delaney Hall complies with all required state and local laws.”
The Department of Homeland Security has claimed that a lawsuit filed by New Jersey officials against the private operator of the Delaney Hall detention facility is “frivolous,” saying that New Jersey officials have been allowed access to inspect the facility.
The lawsuit was filed by New Jersey Attorney General Jennifer Davenport and New Jersey Department of Health Commissioner Raynard Washington against GEO Group, the operator of the facility, on Tuesday. The suit is requesting that a judge allow officials to have full access to the facility for an inspection amid allegations of unsanitary and unsafe conditions inside.
