New Jersey’s attorney general on Tuesday filed a lawsuit against the private prison company GEO Group operating the ICE jail known as Delaney Hall. The lawsuit alleges GEO Group violated state law by blocking inspectors from the facility’s medical unit, sleeping quarters and bathing areas during a visit last Friday. New Jersey Governor Mikie Sherrill said in a statement, “If the GEO Group — with a $1bn government contract — has nothing to hide and the conditions inside Delaney Hall are as safe and as sanitary as this private corporation and the Trump Administration claim, then there is no legitimate reason why my health inspectors are being kept from full access throughout the building.” The city of Newark already filed a lawsuit in April against the GEO Group. At a press conference, Newark Mayor Ras Baraka said that they will expand that litigation to call for the facility’s closure. Mayor Baraka also announced that he was lifting the nightly curfew around Delaney Hall. It comes as hundreds of immigrants detained at the ICE jail are continuing their hunger and labor strike.
