48% :"CoreCivic has not been able to demonstrate the ability to provide a safe environment for staff and noncitizens, provide the necessary security for proper facility security and control measures, and care necessary to ensure proper facility maintenance, overall cleanliness, and personal hygiene needs," ICE said in a March 1 discrepancy report.
42% : In a March 7 letter, Jason Houser, the acting chief of staff at ICE, said the agency had "serious concerns about the accuracy and integrity of this report."

41% : Friday's report also described a "critical" staff shortage that violated staffing level rules set by ICE.
37% :ICE detains unauthorized immigrants, asylum-seekers and other non-citizens facing deportation proceedings, such as permanent residents who were convicted of certain crimes.
