During our May 2018 unannounced inspection of the Adelanto ICE Processing Center in Adelanto, California, we identified a number of serious issues that violate ICE’s 2011
Performance-Based National Detention Standards
and pose significant health and safety risks at the facility. Specifically, we are concerned about the following:
- x Nooses in Detainee Cells
- x Improper and Overly Restrictive Segregation
- x Untimely and Inadequate Detainee Medical Care
ICE must ensure the Adelanto Center complies with detention standards to establish an environment that protects the safety, rights, and health of detainees. Mitigation and resolution of these issues require ICE’s immediate attention and increased engagement with the center and its operations.
