Florida's DeSantis unveils new immigration detention center dubbed 'Deportation Depot' to expand deportations.

With Alligator Alcatraz running in the Everglades, the governor will turn an underused state prison into a second facility for those awaiting deportation.

TALLAHASSEE — As a federal judge weighs whether to temporarily shut down Alligator Alcatraz, the DeSantis administration is making plans to turn a vacant North Florida prison into an immigration detention center for more than 1,000 people. “We are calling this the ‘Deportation Depot,’” Gov. Ron DeSantis said at a news conference Thursday.
