Maryland sues Trump administration over Baltimore ICE holding room facility
The state of Maryland on Tuesday sued the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, alleging it illegally “stonewalled” the state’s investigation into conditions at the George H. Fallon Federal Building in downtown Baltimore where immigrants were being held.
Attorney General Anthony Brown, a Democrat, said his office’s Civil Rights Division and Federal Accountability Unit in January launched an investigation into the conditions inside the detainee holding rooms.
