LIVINGSTON, TX (KTRK) -- Local immigration activists are alleging human rights abuses at the Polk County Detention Center. They gathered Saturday to board a bus and drive to the center in Livingston for a protest.
They claim the detainees suffer from inadequate medical care, poor nutrition and a lack of access to legal services.
Protestors called for the closure of the facility, which houses hundreds of immigration detainees waiting for their cases to be resolved.
