Many immigrants arrested in the Chicago area are taken to a processing facility in Broadview IL before being released, transferred to a detention center outside the state or deported.
The facility wasn’t designed to hold people overnight. There are no beds, no functioning showers, no medical staff.
But a WBEZ/Sun Times investigation found that Broadview has become a de facto detention center, minus the rules and oversight.
