Evan Hurst quotes from the brief that Kilmar Abrego García's attorney filed yesterday, detailing his torture at CECOT:
"Plaintiff Abrego Garcia reports that he was subjected to severe mistreatment upon arrival at CECOT, including but not limited to severe beatings, severe sleep deprivation, inadequate nutrition, and psychological torture."

He was "kicked in the legs with boots and struck on his head and arms to make him change clothes faster. His head was shaved with a zero razor, and he was frog-marched to cell 15, being struck with wooden batons along the way. By the following day, Plaintiff Abrego Garcia had visible bruises and lumps all over his body."

He was "forced to kneel from approximately 9:00 PM to 6:00 AM, with guards striking anyone who fell from exhaustion. During this time, Plaintiff Abrego Garcia was denied bathroom access and soiled himself. The detainees were confined to metal bunks with no mattresses in an overcrowded cell with no windows, bright lights that remained on 24 hours a day, and minimal access to sanitation."

"Even though the United States of America is an empire in decline thanks to the self-destructive policies of the oligarchy, we can take comfort in knowing we’ll have the world’s first 'Alligator Alcatraz' detention facility.
Who needs public schools, affordable health, reliable infrastructure, and steady jobs when you can instead invest that money into private prisons?"
