Civil rights groups are suing the Trump administration for detaining immigrants in a Manhattan federal courthouse where they are deprived of beds, showers, sufficient food, hygiene products, and medication.
“In recent months, New York City has, almost daily, seen masked ICE agents separate people from their families and confine them in crowded, inhumane conditions within a makeshift detention facility inside 26 Federal Plaza in the middle of Manhattan,” Harold Solis, co-legal director of Make the Road New York, said in a statement. Make the Road New York filed the suit, along with the ACLU and the New York Civil Liberties Union (NYCLU).
