Florida is preparing to hold immigrant detainees at a new detention facility in a remote, northern part of the state, the second since the makeshift detention center dubbed “Alligator Alcatraz” opened in the Everglades just over a month ago.

The state will open a second immigration detention, processing and deportation facility at Baker Correctional Institution dubbed 'Deportation Depot'

The second detention center will support the “Alligator Alcatraz” facility opened in South Florida in early July, state officials said.
