ICE Admits Use of Roxbury Warehouse, in Defince of Federal Court Order, for Detainee "Processing" ond Training; Project NINJA Colls for Action from NJ ond Roxbury Officials
ROXBURY, NJ - On Tuesday, Oct 13, U.S. Rep Analilia Mejia shared an email from ICE with Gothamist reporter Mike Hayes. In responding to her request for an oversight visit, ICE officials stated they had repeatedly brought detainees to the Roxbury warehouse for "initial processing" (claiming that detainees were not brought inside the warehouse).
At that evening's Roxbury Town Council meeting, Deputy Mayor Mark Crowley read a prepared statement providing their summary of these events, in which he further revealed that, in addition to "initial processing" of detainees, ICE has also been conducting training inside the warehouse for months.
These admissions come during a NJ Office of the Attorney General (OAG) investigation into evidence that ICE has, for months, been violating a federal court order prohibiting their usage of the warehouse.
This court order covers the entire premises: not just inside the building, but the parking lot and even the surrounding woods. All ICE is permitted to do is maintenance and security, nothing more. “While ICE might be claiming not to have brought detainees inside the warehouse, they admitted they violated the court order by using the property for detention operations, and should be sanctioned accordingly," says David Broderick, legal advisor to Project NINJA.
These admissions are only a result of ongoing allied pressure from elected officials like Rep. Mejia, and local citizens like Project NINJA, Eyes on ICE, rapid responder groups, and others. As Rep. Mejia said, "[DHS] only stopped when whistleblowers spoke up."
"The tireless work of local citizens and concerned elected officials is all that's stopping ICE from escalating their lawlessness," says
