根据出售这些拘留设施的私营监狱公司的消息，美国国土安全部以9.5亿美元的价格收购了位于阿德兰托（Adelanto）的三处移民拘留设施。此次收购是由总部位于佛罗里达州的政府承包商GEO集团完成的；此前，GEO集团的竞争对手CoreCivic（总部位于田纳西州）已于今年夏天以15亿美元的价格收购了加利福尼亚州的两处拘留设施。
The Department of Homeland Security has purchased three immigrant detention facilities in Adelanto for $950 million, according to the private prison corporation that sold them. The sale by the GEO Group, a Florida-based government contractor, follows an initial $1.5-billion sale over the summer of two other California detention facilities by GEO's competitor, CoreCivic of Tennessee.
GEO集团拥有的这些设施包括：可容纳1,280人的阿德兰托西ICE处理中心（Adelanto West ICE Processing Center）、可容纳660人的阿德兰托东ICE处理中心（Adelanto East ICE Processing Center）以及可容纳704人的沙漠景观附属设施（Desert View Annex）。截至目前，联邦政府在购买这些拘留设施上已花费了近32亿美元，其中大部分资金用于加利福尼亚州的相关项目。
The facilities owned by GEO Group include the 1,280-bed Adelanto West ICE Processing Center, the 660-bed Adelanto East ICE Processing Center and 704-bed Desert View Annex. In total, the federal government has now spent nearly $3.2 billion on detention facility purchases, the majority of them in California.
CoreCivic还在今年8月出售了位于明尼苏达州和堪萨斯州的另外两处拘留设施。这些收购得以实现，得益于特朗普总统签署的《One Big Beautiful Bill Act》法案为移民拘留项目提供的450亿美元资金支持。GEO集团在公告中表示，将继续根据与美国移民与海关执法局（ICE）签订的现有合同负责这些设施的日常运营，该合同的有效期为2034年12月19日。
CoreCivic sold off two other facilities, in Minnesota and Kansas, in August. The sales were made possible by an infusion last year of $45 billion for immigration detention from President Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill Act. In its announcement, GEO Group sad it will continue managing daily operations at the facilities under the company's existing contract with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which is effective through Dec. 19, 2034.
该公司还表示，正在与国土安全部就其他多个拘留设施的出售事宜进行谈判；这些出售计划的成功与否取决于GEO集团能否继续根据长期合同管理这些设施。该公司首席执行官乔治·C·佐利（George C. Zoley）在新闻稿中写道：“我们对将这些重要资产出售给美国联邦政府感到满意，并期待继续根据与ICE签订的现有长期合同提供高质量的安全支持服务。我们为与ICE长达40年的公私合作伙伴关系感到自豪，也愿意继续协助联邦政府履行其移民执法任务。”
The company said it is engaged in an "active process" with Homeland Security for the potential sale of multiple other facilities. Those sales hinge on GEO Group's ability to continue managing those facilities under long-term contracts, the company wrote. “We are pleased with the completion of these important asset sales to the U.S. federal government, and we look forward to continuing to provide high-quality secure support services under our existing long-term contracts with ICE," George C. Zoley, the company's CEO, wrote in a news release. "We are proud of our 40-year public-private partnership with ICE, and we stand ready to continue to assist the federal government in meeting its immigration enforcement priorities," Zoley added.
在8月份的一次股东电话会议上，Zoley表示，ICE（ICE公司）正在考虑收购10处以上的设施，而且这个数字“可能会继续增加”。他在电话会议上说：“我们认为我们的资产分为两类：建筑物以及提供支持服务的业务。我们正在考虑出售这些建筑物，但希望保留相关的服务业务。我们自认为是专注于提供支持服务的公司，因此非常重视在出售给ICE的任何设施后仍能继续提供这些服务的能力。”
During a shareholder call in August, Zoley said ICE was contemplating buying more than 10 facilities, and that number "could continue to grow." "We believe we have two types of assets: the buildings and the businesses of providing support services," he said on the call. "We are pursuing a potential sale of the buildings, but we want to retain the business. We consider ourselves primarily a support services operator, and will place particular importance on our ability to continue our support services at any facility sold to ICE."
GEO集团表示，预计出售这些建筑物后（扣除税费和交易费用后）将获得7.05亿美元的收入。该公司称，这笔净收入将用于偿还债务，并有助于回购公司股票。此报道将会持续更新。
GEO Group said it anticipates receiving $705 million in proceeds from the sales, after taxes and transaction fees. The company wrote that net proceeds will reduce the company's debt and facilitate the repurchase of company shares. This story will be updated.
