- As Trump’s immigration dragnet grows, so do complaints of detention center conditions
The Trump administration's expanded immigrant detention program has drawn complaints of inhumane conditions and inadequate medical care at U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement facilities, including the Farmville Detention Center in Virginia. Aliaksei Scharbachenia, a Belarusian detainee, reported panic attacks, medical neglect, and solitary confinement, while ICE has not responded to questions about his treatment or a reported deportation attempt.
