What happens when there’s an assault in Tacoma’s ICE detention center?
The privately run ICE detention center in Tacoma faces reported issues including unsanitary conditions, limited medical access, and physical assaults. A lawsuit by the Washington Attorney General alleges the facility has received 3,500 complaints, with two detainees dying in custody in 2024. State officials have struggled to inspect the facility, and GEO Group, the operating company, has not commented on the cases.
