Report on conditions at Otero detention facility
This week, DMSC and Freedom for Immigrants co-released a report on conditions at the Otero County Processing Center in Chaparral, New Mexico, based on interviews with dozens of current and former detained people. Otero is a for-profit prison--contracting to hold detainees for both ICE and Otero County--run by Management & Training Corporation. As this report shows, the picture MTC paints about conditions at the facility have nothing to do with reality.
