I can personally confirm that ICE has maintained these secret sites since very shortly after its founding, and that at least one of their uses is for off the books interrogations

I know the comparison's trite at this point but as an Argentine it's shocking how similar this all is to Videla, Pinochet and the like. Centros clandestinos and all.

@AppleAmps I mean the interrogations that I heard were performed at the site in question were nowhere near as bad as those in Argentina

That was also nearly twenty years ago though, could be worse now

@AppleAmps like it was still definitely a centro clandestino that also moved once they realized local activists knew about it

@AppleAmps which meant there was no journalistic expose, no record that this happened, just the memories of a couple dozen people in one undistinguished town. And you sounded crazy if you tried to tell people about it

So whoever wants to investigate this shit better wake up early tomorrow, it might be gone by the afternoon
