Sheriff Skips Sex Assault Probes at Immigration Detention Center

Published 6 days, 5 hours ago
Description

San Diego County Sheriffs officials have neglected to investigate at least seven reported sexual assaults at the Otay Mesa immigration detention center this year. The facility, operated by CoreCivic, has a memorandum allowing the warden to decide if sheriffs deputies get involved. Advocacy groups are outraged, accusing CoreCivic of failing to protect detainees and hold private operators accountable. The company maintains it logs all reports and offers support, but no cases have gone to prosecutors as CoreCivic didnt request investigations. This situation has led to a lawsuit between the county and CoreCivic over blocked health inspections.
