Immigrant rights groups plan to release a report blasting the conditions at a federal immigration detention center in southwest Georgia. Georgia Detention Watch is a coalition of immigrant rights groups. The report is based on interviews conducted in December with 16 detainees at the Stewart Detention Facility in Lumpkin. The groups say conditions at the detention center are "grossly inadequate." The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention center is operated by Nashville-based Corrections Corporation of America, the country's largest private prison firm.
