Four men detained at the ICE Folkston Processing Center in Georgia used video calling software to expose the harsh conditions within and the corrupt system designed to keep them imprisoned. The video, showing blurred images of the men in drab uniforms, highlights a system where inmates are paid only $1 a day, sufficient only for a 10-minute phone call. The private company running the facility profits from these fees, which can reach up to $1.10 per minute.

Since the release of the video, many of the men have been placed in solitary confinement, facing potential retaliation. The men allege that the legal system is intentionally dysfunctional, trapping them in indefinite detention. They argue that the only ways out are through parole, bond, asylum, or deportation.

The facility, owned by the GEO Group, has seen a surge in profitability after Donald Trump's re-election, with the company receiving millions in government contracts. This raises questions about the ethics of profit-driven immigration policies.
