please introduce yourself to our stream audience. my name is laura mccarty. i am a professor at columbia law school and one of the lawyers working to represent the brave women who organized to tell the truth about medical abuse, is that the erwin county detention center. thank you so much for joining us on saturday. good to have you here on the stream. introduce yourself to i international audience. thanks for having me. my name is tara going to hurry. i'm the advocacy director at detention watch network. the reason we put all 3 of i guess together, and wanted to share the story with you, was because of a new fort lines, documentaries called no consent. it tells a story of what happened at b o in detention center. have a look black and brown, immigrant women at the mercy of the private prison corporation. 4 lines investigate allegations of medical abuse of women, held it a privately run, immigration detention facility in rome,

georgia. you still don't know what happened here saying that you don't have a chance to read everything. an ordeal exposed by a nurse turned whistled our below the whistle a 1000 times over. if i had no consent, surgery scandal, an immigrant detention on al jazeera, you know, i'm just trying to think when i, i have a stories that come out of this immigration center. incredible abusive human rights abuses. what is going on in the private tension center anyway in the united states? that should give us concern? yeah, i think the, the main thing to note here, right, is that erwin, unfortunately, and sadly, is not unique. and it's not just private detention, it's all of the detention center is across the country, whether they're private, whether they are local and county jails, whether they are run by the federal government. there has been countless reports from advocates, including the tension, watch network and many others. over the years,

the government's own inspectors have documented physical sexual abuse, medical negligence, really throughout the us immigration detention system across the country. so this is really a big problem and the fact that we are able to get this when or when, because the bravery of, of women like her. oh me is a huge, huge victory. and i'm just so honored to be here with her or me if you are trying to explain to international audience what it was like being in the oh, in detention facility, how would you describe life fair before we even get to the terrible things that happened to you lie and there is that literally you're surrounded by dead, you know, everything is just negative and dar there is no light, sunlight from natural horrible, very bad condition, negative and, and just the environment, the area,

everything is negative. it's not good. i'm just me. k, you're not in prison, you're not there because you did something illegal. how would you explain what landed you in the tension still in the 1st place? i believe one ended me, and erwin county was a purpose. and i believe that's why i ended up in erwin county detention center for immigrants, for a purpose. and for this, there was a lot of going on let's start talking about some of the issue base alora, if you could lay out where the complaints of neglect and abuse started from this particular facility in georgia. tell you how bad. yeah, that starting as early as 2018 lawyers representing women at the erwin

county detention center, notified both eyes and the private prison corporation lasalle that women were being abused by the guy to call the gynecologist who is providing services there. and as early as 2018 lawyers raised an alarm saying that this doctor leaves women traumatized and abused and they don't want to go back to him. but for years continuing through last fall, when the whistleblower complaint was filed, women kept being brought to this guy and ecologist and woman after a woman after woman was subjected to nonconsensual, medically unnecessary gynecological procedures and surgeries. so surgeries and procedures that they did not need surgeries and procedures that left them in trauma and then pain lasting to this day. now what happened is that the women brave

women like haro, me organized inside the prison, to shed light on the truth of what was happening. now a woman after a woman after woman was being abused, there are, i mean i'm going to play you a video and this video is from priyanka, but she's a staff attorney projects self and their co author of the whistleblower complaint. so, so these abuses were happening when we were getting medical treatment that they are saying we did not need this. and then a whistleblower spilled the beans. and these are some of the stories that were beginning to leak out, have listened to brianca and then pick up. here we go. personally, i will never forget the pure horror and just there in the voice of the people i talked to inside erwin corner from being separated from their families and children or from not receiving h i v and breast cancer medication that their life dependent on horn from having

a coby 19 and not getting help or from being thrown in calling parents consignments for filing a complaint or asking for a p b. or from not knowing what happened to their own bodies from waking up with hope in their stomach and not understanding why. and horror from wondering if they to look di inside and i detention center. and so many other already have that is very true. i do remember every generation and she mentioned i was very afraid of dying of cold. first i was afraid of getting infected. i didn't know was infected, although i complained to the nurses not to me, but all of us. we were all state. we complained that they never listened to a b. b neglect, solitary for complaining also was true. i also was dollar traded for

a couple of days for complaining about an appropriate to asian. so all of the above is so real. and just here in a and in the videos and hearing the, the be new enough. erwin county, shutting down is like all of your grief seen, you know, i feel like they took the took a lot from me and however, i'm glad for the personal role that i have received. i remember the paint everything guy and i just have to say, i can't underscore enough this point around you know, retaliation because i send attention center staff are able to act with impunity. the threat of retaliation and abuse when people speak out is very, very real. you know, people are, as she said, put in solitary confinement. their deportations can be set up. they're often denied you know, the most basic necessities and due process when they speak out physical force rubber, bullets, pepper spray. these are all very often used,

including also force feeding or threats of force feeding, hunger strikers. you know, last year, thousands of people across the detention system took part in hunger strikes to bring attention to the situation they were facing inside because of covert the lack of p, p e. the lot of testing the lack of soap, and many of them were subjected these, these types of retaliation. so it's a real, a real threat. so as we were putting the show together, we reached out to the u. s. immigration and customs enforcement agency. so they, you'll, you'll hear them audience around the world, you have them dislike as ice. and literally, just as we were about to start the show, that statement came in. so just in time for us to have a look at it. so i am reading at the same time that you are reading it, so we're going to put it up here for a little while, and i am going to work my way through. i guess i want you to actually have a debate with this statement. ok,

when you see things that you'll how you're concerned about, we're going to discuss it said, all right, thank you for your patience. thank you for sending the statement. this statement comes from tenure remind spokesperson for the office of public affairs at ice. and they say here that the owen county detention center as soon as possible and consistent very legal obligations will be closed down. there is an ongoing investigation. secretary, what does the ongoing investigation needs to be looking at? sure. i mean, you know, i think it's important that they're taking the step this, this investigation, the office of inspector general isn't, is investigating these allegations that erwin county and you know, we do hope that the results of the investigation. we expect them to confirm what advocates and people in detention have already shared. but you know, this is not the 1st investigation of its kind. there have been countless investigations from the office of inspector general countless reports,

countless inspections throughout the system. so, you know, we're, we're, we're glad the inspection is happening, but, but we already know what needs to happen, or when the closing of erwin, as well as bristol county, which was now the same time. these need to be 1st steps and we need to see more of the youth detention centers shutting down inspections aren't enough and, and have never gotten us there. we need to start thinking of a different way and phasing out the youth detention entirely. let's go back to the i statement cuz i saw her, oh me, i saw you leaning forward. there's something here that i want to ask you about. all detainees must receive access to appropriate medical care and medical care decisions should be made by medical person. now, what was your experience her? oh me? correct. i didn't lie in confusion on my way to

surgery and it was a bad experience with scary. the 1st time i man dr. a man, he said i needed surgery the 1st very 1st time you ever met me. he said, you need surgery because you have when you're right ovary, i had to kid was 27 at the time and had never heard of. and so i was very surprised when he told me that also i was surprised when he gave me a shot. he said it was for hormones, but i would, you know, make this, did go away and all the time. i have so many questions like, well, what if i can support or release before? how do we finish the process? and i, you know, i said to myself, okay, well then i guess we'll see each other in 3 months for the shock. however, he meant he missed that 3rd month shot and i was just and shot at that time because he should have had kids know in his computer and should have known as

a 3rd mark. the 3rd month mark was coming up if he was still interested to remove it with hormone. i did have some side effects from the shots that i had never said . he gave me a double shot. i am american. i am very american and i had double shot in my child's life, and i never had a whole month bleeding or chain experience. and it was scary because it was dark colored blood. and so i was scared to me honestly and not to mention it when it came down to my surgery day, that was scheduled for july 31st. and when i found i had, and i bought it for colby, you know, i never knew that could have died. you know, so i was shocked at that time when the nurse, dated in a quote to remain is going to be pissed because she can do the surgery. and i'm like, oh my god, life, i'm sorry. do i have code it, you know,

confuse isolation. we're cold when, when so on santa cherry know chemical. it's just ridiculous. no, the nor the officers wouldn't clean. i mean, it was dirty. how the past the food of their not naming. so i'm just, you know, it was just not, well, none of the conditions that in her me and were not well, not to mention, i told them i don't want the surgery after july 31st. they tried to give me a 2nd surgery, august 14th. and i denied it because miss hughes, this story was not enough. she told me her if, if i may, because to go for what you went for was gonna take a lot longer than we have on the stream. so what, i'm, what i picked up from your story that shocked me and brought me back to the history of experimentation on black and brown people. united states was that you came to the doctor with cramps and the doctor was planning on giving you

a hysterectomy that you had no idea was going to happen. i'm, i'm going to leave it there because people can follow more of your story by watching the fort lines episode no consent, but just hear that audience, because that is shocking. i'm going to go to youtube. sherry words, this is totally heretic. it almost seems like it was pre planned by the government . i am so tired of all these innocent people being so victimized. laura, instant response to sherry's comment. go ahead, very briefly. that her ethic abuse at the erwin county detention center is shocking . it is stomach turning, it's awful and simply closing down the detention center is not enough. all of the women who survived medical abuse at the erwin county detention center deserve a pass to legal immigration status. all of the women who were deported in retaliation for speaking out about the medical abuse like her ro,

me deserve to be back in the united states with their families, with their us citizen children. and there must be a meaningful investigation to an earth, all of the complicity in the system from ice officers to the private contractors who allowed this abuse to take place for a year. this is saj career. sy, thank you for being part of this program. that's right, so i was wondering all of the women going to win the case in the class action lawsuit. what is your feeling here? well, i can't tell the future. i certainly believe that they deserve to win and they deserve much more than that. they deserve justice. they deserve knowing that this isn't going to happen to other women. they deserve knowing that, you know, migrants are going to be respected in this country. that we can welcome people with dignity that we can treat people with dignity. so, so these women need to get some form of justice through the court system and then

we need to fight. so that no one else experiences this again, you know, i am wondering where politics comes into what is happening. these private detention immigration centers around the united states. this is one particularly horrible situation in georgia, but there are many detention center, the private ones, facilities around the united states. this is diego, hey, diego rate is a really interesting question about the politics of these private detention facilities. i will listen to today, go lower and then respond to him. the closure county detention center is definitely a victory for all those detained folks who have decided to speak up against the abuses happening at this facility for the formerly detained folks at or when, who have been organized to shut this down. and for all the organizers and advocate to the state of georgia who have been fighting for this issue for many years for them. but this is only

a step in the right direction for the fight in administration, who needs to release everyone who is still detained at the erwin county dentist or any to recognize that these types of abuses i'm not isolated and that they have been happening all over the country and the immigrant presidents need to be shut down by an administration, has a mandate to shut this place down for diego is absolutely right. they erwin county detention center is emblematic of the types of heretic abuses that take place in ice detention nation wide. there is no need for an immigration detention system. every one in immigration detention should be released safely into the community. i am looking at right now how, how are me and i'm looking at and t immigrant sentiment. people are

upset and they're saying why you're complaining. you're getting care who knows what might happen in your developing world country. there is some prejudice coming out of this huge conversation. what worries me is that everybody who's in the care of united states, she's not necessarily, or should not feel unsafe in that care. that was my reaction to those comments. what is your reaction to those comments? you know why i believe that my most respect and love goes for all of those people who would respond to such a thing because they've never been to me and that's my response. you've never been 3 and so i'm show you do, you might want to speak up because you're from america in america, the teachers to speak up in the document, you know, consent which is

a deputy deputy later on today. that's wednesday 22 hours 30 g m t. and you can also watch it online. i will tell people where they could watch it online. your little girl makes an appearance. i want to share with the well, because monica, who is the correspondent, also little go about you because when you were veiled what was happening at the detention facility, you were very swiftly deported. and so now you are in one country. your little go is in the united states, you're not together. this is what little go had to say about that. we have so much memory with her and polish my cry all the time. so if we can just have one memory and play together, that's my sister. i me amazing and what would you do if you see her? what's the 1st thing you would? i would really help

me the way that you spoke how he stood out for yourself and the other women. would you ever think about taking that back, rethinking where that got you are which have been deported any way i would speak up a 1000 times over again. i would have never kept my mouth shut because it's a pain that i have never experienced. but when i did, it was her or it could have lost her mind that i had, i didn't mention how many other private facilities, immigration facilities around the united states. i'm just looking right here on my laptop mapping us immigration detention as the i statement. really looks like it's like this is not the behavior. the u. s. agency should be displaying this

is not good practice. is there a way that you can look at these detention centers around the u. s, and say they should be best practices we have learned from the o and facility, and now we need to make sure that detainees are protected. yes, i mean as, as the laura said before, there's actually 0 need for a detention system at all. so best practice is to close them all down. you know, as, as we've all mentioned, you know, detention is, is cruel, but it's not only cruel. it's completely unnecessary. most people who are detained in the united states in the immigration system have communities. they have loved ones in the united states to how's them and support them and help them navigate their immigration cases. you know, for the small number that don't. there are networks of shelters and services, particularly along the border, but really across the country that can provide services and are prepared and

willing and able to do that. you know, studies have shown that the vast majority of people who are released attend to their court hearings. so even this is often used as the justification they have to go to court. we can't make them go to court unless we detain them. and it's simply not true, and in fact, you know, nearly a 100 percent of immigrants with lawyers attain their hearing. so our messages allow people to be in community with their loved ones, with the support of their networks, offer support to those that need it and provide access to legal counsel. that's really all we need to do. and we need to shudder every single one of these facilities across the country center i and laura and how are me. thank you so much for being part of this program. how are we in particular, i wish that your family is reunited as soon as possible. thank you for sharing your paying for experience with us on the streaming really appreciate it. and we show you where you can see no consent. the latest film from a fort lines. you can watch your online right now at fort lines online at al

a meter into the ground after him near miss from an israeli miss style.
