Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) is planning to convert a large warehouse in Social Circle, Georgia, into a holding facility for up to 10,000 detainees. The warehouse was purchased for $128 million and will be converted into a detention facility. The facility is expected to house anywhere from 7,500 to 10000 detainees and is expected for up until the end of the year. The city manager, Eric Taylor, stated that the water and sewer treatment resources needed to support the large number of detainees would be impossible. He joined Sen. Sen. Warnock to oppose the construction of the detention center and will join him in fighting the construction.
