Corruption by Another Name (Part II)

Governor Ron DeSantis announced the closure of the Everglades immigration detention center 'Alligator Alcatraz,' claiming it fulfilled its temporary purpose. Critics argue the facility, which cost $3,571 per detainee daily, was the most expensive detention center in U.S. history, funded by over $1 billion in taxpayer dollars through no-bid contracts and emergency fund misappropriation. The project faced accusations of diverting resources from essential programs and violating state laws.
