A Chicago facility that has emerged as a flashpoint for protests against Donald Trump’s mass deportation agenda has been cramming immigrant detainees into unsanitary conditions without adequate food and water, according to a new lawsuit.
As many as 100 people have been packed into small rooms overnight or for days on end “like a pile of fish” with no room to lie down, forcing detainees to sleep on top of each other or while sitting up, or in bathrooms near urine-soaked floors and clogged toilets, the lawsuit says.
