Human Rights Watch and the ACLU released a joint 84-page report documenting systemic abuse at Camp East Montana, an immigration detention facility at Fort Bliss with capacity for 5,000 people. The investigation, based on interviews with 80 people detained there from October 2025 to June 2026, found widespread cruel and degrading conditions, including detainees held indoors for weeks without sunlight, housed in cramped pods with up to 72 people, bathrooms covered in feces, no access to hygiene supplies, inconsistent meals with spoiled food, and beatings by masked guards in response to hunger strikes, medical requests, and complaints. Researchers documented severe medical neglect, including prolonged delays in treatment, interruptions in prescribed medications, and inadequate medical assessments. More than 60 people interviewed said they were arrested despite displaying documentation of lawful presence, and detainees reported being transferred through facilities without meaningful communication with family members or lawyers, in circumstances that may amount to enforced disappearance under international human rights law. Some detainees described coercive pressure to accept removal to third countries, including threats of violence, criminal prosecution, and indefinite detention.
