The Trump administration opened "Camp 57," a new immigration detention center at Louisiana's Angola prison, to house undocumented immigrants accused of crimes. Holding over 400 men, the facility is designed for those deemed "worst of the worst." Officials highlight it as a success in combating illegal immigration and crime. Despite Angola's history of human rights concerns, including accusations of forced labor and inadequate medical care, officials say its notoriety sends a message to illegal immigrants. Other states are also creating similar facilities.
