Detainees arriving at the immigration detention center in the Florida Everglades known as “Alligator Alcatraz” are given color-coded uniforms and wrist-bands and then segregated based on their criminal history and whether they're considered a flight risk, according to a handbook given to detainees.
The handbook was included in court documents that are part of a lawsuit over whether the detainees are getting proper access to attorneys. The handbook presents strict rules on hygiene and dress, and portrays an environment inside the remote detention center that starkly contrasts with the deplorable conditions detainees described shortly after it opened in July.
