The Biden administration directed U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on Friday to stop holding immigrants at an Alabama county jail and limit its use of three other detention facilities, citing inadequate conditions, according to an agency notice obtained by CBS News.
Acting ICE director Tae Johnson instructed officials to no longer use the Etowah County Detention Center in northern Alabama due to "a long history of serious deficiencies identified during facility inspections." Officials said the detention facility does not hold significant operational value to ICE.
Johnson also announced that ICE will pause its use of the Glades County Detention Center in southern Florida, saying any future detainee transfers to the facility will be dependent on compliance with internal detention standards.

Washington — The Supreme Court on Thursday cleared the way for the Trump administration to deport a group of migrants with criminal records held at a U.S. naval base in Djibouti, clarifying the scope of its earlier order that lifted restrictions on removals to countries that are not deportees' places of origin.
