Colorado health officials order Aurora ICE Processing Center to hand over tuberculosis records
Colorado health officials issued an order demanding that the Aurora ICE Processing Center hand over tuberculosis records, which they allege the GEO Group has withheld for nearly two months. The public health order targets the private company operating Colorado's only immigration detention center, asserting that the information is necessary to complete a full investigation into a TB case. Failure by GEO Group to comply by August 17 could result in legal action from Attorney General Phil Weiser.
