Alligator Alcatraz Must Wind Down Operations, US Judge Rules
The sprawling immigrant detention camp known as Alligator Alcatraz must be wound down and dismantled, a federal judge said, dealing a setback to Florida’s push to help President Donald Trump’s campaign to deport millions.
US District Court Judge Kathleen Williams in Miami on Thursday barred immigration authorities from bringing more detainees to the makeshift facility in the Florida Everglades, finding that it was built without a proper environmental review.
The judge also ordered state and federal officials within 60 days to remove the fencing, lighting and all “generators, gas, sewage, and other waste and waste receptacles that were installed to support this project.”
In her ruling, the judge recalled that in the 1970s, federal and state officials joined together to protect a part of the Everglades that includes Alligator Alcatraz by creating Big Cypress National Preserve.
“Since that time, every Florida governor, every Florida senator, and countless local and national political figures, including presidents, have publicly pledged their unequivocal support for the restoration, conservation, and protection of the Everglades,” she wrote. “This order does nothing more than uphold the basic requirements of legislation designed to fulfill those promises.”
