A federal judge on Thursday temporarily halted any further construction of the immigrant detention center known as "Alligator Alcatraz." U.S. District Judge Kathleen Mary Williams granted a temporary restraining order after two days of testimony about the environmental impact of the site.

Officials building a Florida detention center appear to be skipping environmental reviews made mandatory decades ago after a fight over an airport at the very same spot.

Sunday afternoon, people are planning to gather at ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ for a weekly vigil outside the immigrant detention facility.
