Florida Governor Ron DeSantis announced the opening of a second state-run immigration detention facility named "Deportation Depot" at the Baker Correctional Institution in northern Florida. The facility, described as a sister location to the existing "Alligator Alcatraz," will hold up to 2,000 detainees awaiting deportation. This move is part of a broader effort by the state to expedite the deportation of illegal immigrants. The Republican Party of Florida released merchandise promoting the "Deportation Depot," but the items were subsequently pulled after Home Depot objected to the unauthorized use of its branding. The new detention center has raised concerns among local residents. Advocacy groups have highlighted the number of detainees held at the original facility, while some officials emphasize that increased detention capacity supports the enforcement of immigration laws and removal orders. The facility repurposes a shuttered state prison to accommodate the growing number of migrants in detention.
