End Inhumane Detention and
Crisis At GEO Private Prison in Pecos, TX
GEO Group administrators, supervisors and employees continue inflicting severe abuses and violating the rights of immigrant detainees at the privately-run prison in Pecos, TX. Detainees at the GEO Group run-prison are being subjected to inhumane treatment, denying them medical care, providing inadequate food and placing detainees in harm’s way with the unsanitary conditions of detention. Geo Group maintains the prisoners in overcrowded conditions at the Reeves County Detention Complex facilities (RCDC).
Last week, NNIRR received a report of another inmate death at Reeves County facility. Although initially reported as a suicide, it is highly unlikely that an inmate who was three months short of completing a five-year sentence would take his own life, in light of recent reports from Reeves County inmates who testify to the brutal treatment and conditions at the facility by guards.
