Hutchins Mega Center — Hutchins, TX
ICE plans to convert a vacant 1-million-square-foot warehouse at 950 N. I-45 into the nation's largest detention center—nearly double the capacity of the current largest facility (Camp East Montana in El Paso, 5,000 beds). Hutchins has a population of only about 5,600 people. An internal agency document names three other new Texas centers that together would add at least 20,000 beds statewide. Dallas County Commissioner John Wiley Price opposes the plan, saying "the infrastructure's not there."
