Show Notes

Geo Group secures full ownership of Hobbs, New Mexico prison site, paving the way for direct ICE contracts. Despite a new state law banning local government involvement in immigrant detention, private companies can still pursue federal deals. Critics argue the land swap is a workaround, while city officials claim its a long-planned real estate fix. Other New Mexico sites run by firms like CoreCivic and Management and Training Corporation face uncertain futures as talks with ICE continue.
