Battle over the future of 'Alligator Alcatraz'
The legal battle over the future of the "Alligator Alcatraz" immigration detention facility in Florida is continuing. Proponents have framed the facility as a low-cost, temporary solution to crack down on illegal immigration and manage the volume of detainees. However, environmental groups argue that the facility's location in the Everglades and rushed construction violate federal environmental laws and could harm the environment, including endangered species. Dr. Larry Walker, an associate professor at the University of Central Florida, joins Good Day Orlando to discuss what comes next.
