## Resource

Inside Texas’s Camp East Montana, detainees are exposing a nightmare of abuse: beatings, starvation, unsanitary conditions, and denied legal access. With three deaths since opening last August — one after brutal restraint — and millions in taxpayer dollars spent while contractors allegedly profited, the facility’s horrors only worsen. Despite replacing its main contractor after internal findings of systemic failures, new interviews reveal bathrooms fouled with feces, no hygiene supplies, and guards punishing groups for one person’s misstep. Staff allegedly pressured detainees to accept deportation, even threatening violence. Human Rights Watch and ACLU warn these conditions may constitute enforced disappearances — and demand immediate closure and independent investigations.
