There was a significant length of time when they didn’t.
Both of the white people who were recently accidentally thrown by ICE into detention centers designed for brown people reported (a) that they were horrifying, with nonstop screaming, solitary confinement, shortages of fundamental human things like clothing and towels, that kind of thing (b) there were people who had been there for a long, long time (the more recent one said “years”). Reportedly, even for white people who clearly don’t “belong there,” there is a shortage of judges who might ever give them a hearing which would lead quickly to them being able to get out, and so in they stay.
Khalil has been disappeared. The fact that people temporarily know where he is after not knowing for a few days (!), and that they found someone who was an “immigrant” and so ICE had some kind of fig-leaf of justification to randomly snatch because Trump told them to, in no way detracts from the horrifying nature of what’s going on. I think “disappeared” is a pretty accurate description even if it’s been temporarily announced where he is.
I don’t know what to do. This article is one of the first I’ve read in the press that is as alarmed as people should be about what is going on.
As I understand it, the worst places are usually run by private companies contracted by ICE, and operated day-to-day by some of the worst people you could imagine.
That literally happened and it was the high profile nature that got him found. So many people without the resources and support do lose family members this way.

I wonder who runs places like that. They should stop and it should be looked into.

Being disappeared means one day someone vanishes. No-one knows where they are, what happened to them, or who is responsible. This is not that.

They attempted to do this to this person.
