Where can I find info on the 5 Halliburton holding areas or prisons

[Frustratedlady]

being built in the U.S.? I haven't come up with anything on searching. Was there a different term to describe them?

1. perhaps search for immigrant/KBR

This year's contracts include: a $385 million award to Halliburton subsidiary KBR to establish temporary detention and processing capabilities in the event of an emergency influx of immigrants, and a $308 million to $750 million contract with Unisys to continue building, securing and managing the information technology infrastructure for the Department of Homeland Security and the Transportation Security Administration, one of its agencies.

10. Thanks for that link.

That may help me find the article with drawings/photos, locations, etc. I'm sure it was around the time of Katrina. I was mistaken in naming Halliburton, when my brain kept saying K?R -- couldn't remember the KBR -- but I figured Halliburton would catch it, as KBR is a subsidiary, right?

Thanks again!

16. I'm typing this with the mop handle--and I aint using my hands

6. Huh? nt

[Frustratedlady]

11. Yeah, that was my first thought, too.

Isn't it sad that we've come to that level of paranoia?

3. RU doing a DU search?

isnt Halibutron building them?

Try terms ike Martial law

[Frustratedlady]

12. Yes, I'm using DU, but I used Halliburton rather than KBR.

I was sure it was KBR, but couldn't remember the "B". I figured since Halliburton was the parent company, it would pop up. I'll try again with KBR. I can see the drawings in my mind's eye, but that doesn't email very well. :P

Thanks!

5. Yes. ICE was the term. I haven't visited this in awhile but try there. nt

[babylonsister]

8. ICE: Immigration and Customs Enforcement encompasses lots

of stuff.

[Frustratedlady]

13. Thanks! Will give ICE a try.

9. Frankly, I'm not sure that they actually exist.

I've never heard anything about them being sited, constructed, progress reports, anything of that sort. The deal to build them may have been strictly a paper agreement. God knows Halliburton is good at that sort of thing.

[Frustratedlady]

14. Does Halliburton get paid for the "paper" too?

I know they put them "on notice" to hold open a spot in case they actually need what the contracts call for, but I thought this "project" was past the drawing board stage. I may be all wet.

15. I don't have a link now but I remember reading and seeing pic's here on DU

several months back. If my memory serves me right one of them is over in missouri.
