Immigration detainees are being held for prolonged periods at a temporary Border Patrol holding facility in Murrieta because of “lack of space elsewhere,” a Border Patrol spokesman said.

The facility, which as of Wednesday held 93 people, “provides mattresses to the extent possible and all individuals are provided blankets,” Francisco said. Lawyers say keeping people long-term at the Murrieta station unconstitutionally deprives them of basic rights. In cases they have worked on, the lawyers say, the men while at the station were not presented with charging documents describing the basis for their detention.
Castillo said that when Sanchez’s family hired her, she began calling the station asking to speak to her client. He told her he did not have a toothbrush or toothpaste, that he and his fellow detainees were required to use the toilet without privacy and that he had not been able to bathe or change his clothes.
