USA: New Findings Reveal Human Rights Violations at Florida’s “Alligator Alcatraz” and Krome Detention Centers
The report, Torture and enforced disappearances in the Sunshine State: Human rights violations at “Alligator Alcatraz” and Krome in Florida, reveals human rights violations that, in some cases amount to torture, occurring at Krome and “Alligator Alcatraz” within an increasingly hostile anti-immigrant climate in Florida under Governor Ron DeSantis, whose administration has intensified criminalization and mass detention of migrants and people seeking safety. Findings were gathered during a September 2025 research mission.

That's the point. It was a test run to see what they could get away with. Torture, disappearances, murder.
And they succeeded. The American people didn't do what they needed to stop it.
This will get worse.
Auschwitz, not Alcatraz. Get it right.
DiSantis reportedly laughed at prisoners being tortured when he was a JAG officer stationed at Guantanamo Bay. He finds torture to be entertaining.
Not surprised
