SCOTUS rules against private prison firm facing enslavement lawsuit from immigrant abductees

Source: Connecticut Post

“The Supreme Court on Wednesday ruled against a private prison company facing a lawsuit alleging immigration [abductees] were forced to work and paid only $1 a day in Colorado. The unanimous ruling is a procedural defeat for the GEO Group, but it’s not a final decision. The company is fighting a lawsuit from 2014 alleging detainees in Aurora had to perform unpaid janitorial work and other jobs for little pay to supplement meager meals. GEO defended its practices and argued that the case should be tossed out because it’s immune from lawsuits as a government contractor. After a judge disagreed, the company asked the Supreme Court to allow it to quickly appeal the ruling. But the justices refused.” (02/25/26)
