Newark mayor returns to immigration detention center days after trespassing arrest

  • On Tuesday, Newark Mayor Ras Baraka made a short visit to the entrance of the federal immigration detention facility where he had been arrested the previous Friday.
  • Baraka was arrested for trespassing after he tried to enter Delaney Hall with New Jersey's congressional delegation, who were allowed inside but not him.
  • Delaney Hall is a federal immigration detention facility run under a 15-year, $1 billion contract awarded to The Geo Group Inc. Earlier this year by ICE.
  • A federal official wearing Homeland Security Investigations gear told Baraka, "you are not a Congress member," as video showed him resisting arrest and responding, "They can't come out on the street and arrest me."
  • Baraka faces a trespassing court hearing Thursday while continuing his vocal opposition to the detention center and President Trump's immigration policy as he runs for governor.
