律师和专家正在发出警报称，位于得州西部布利斯军事基地的广阔沙漠拘留营——东蒙大拿营（Camp East Montana）的移民因持续存在的极端健康和安全隐患，面临严重受伤或死亡的风险。据《卫报》获悉，这一警报来自一份刚刚提交的法庭文件。
Attorneys and experts are raising the alarm that immigrants at Camp East Montana, the sprawling desert detention camp on the Fort Bliss military base in west Texas, face a risk of serious injury or death because of ongoing, extreme health and safety hazards there, according to a fresh court filing, the Guardian can reveal.
尽管联邦政府内外部门定期报告称，该设施自去年开放以来已违反数十项官方标准，但据称危险的状况仍在该帐篷监狱——美国最大的移民拘留设施——持续存在。
The allegedly dangerous conditions persist at the tent jail, the largest immigration detention facility in the US, despite regular reports from inside and outside the federal government that it has violated dozens of official standards since it opened last year.
曾负责管理两个州监狱系统的矫正专家迪恩·威廉姆斯（Dean Williams）在新提交文件的证词中表示，东蒙大拿营的状况“令人震惊”，并且“远超我曾监管过的最安全监狱”，尽管该设施是民用而非刑事拘留场所，且被关押在那里的绝大多数男女均无犯罪记录。
One correctional expert, who has run two state prison systems, Dean Williams, said in testimony as part of the new filing that conditions at Camp East Montana “shock the conscience” and were “far beyond those of the most secure prisons I have overseen”, even though it is a civil, not a criminal, detention facility and the vast majority of the men and women held there have no criminal records.
另一位专家、医生兼管理者杰弗里·凯勒（Jeffrey Keller）——他曾负责九个州拘留中心的医疗工作——在该文件中表示：“东蒙大拿营的医疗条件差和不安全环境已导致可预防的死亡，并使所有人面临伤害风险，包括严重受伤和死亡。”
“Poor healthcare and unsafe conditions at Camp East Montana have resulted in preventable death and put all people at risk of harm, including serious injury and death,” said another expert, Jeffrey Keller, a doctor and administrator who has run the healthcare for detention centers in nine states, as part of the filing.
这些新文件于周四晚上在得州西区联邦法院（埃尔帕索）提交，作为五月份提起的一起诉讼的一部分。
The new documents were filed in federal court in the western district of Texas, El Paso, on Thursday night as part of a lawsuit filed in May.
这是首起针对东蒙大拿营的诉讼，当时已被《卫报》披露。该集体诉讼针对移民与海关执法局（ICE）提起，指控该机构存在“严重恶劣”状况，严重侵犯了该设施内人员的人权和宪法权利。
It was the first lawsuit relating to Camp East Montana, and was revealed by the Guardian at the time. The class-action lawsuit filed against Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) accuses the agency of “dire” conditions that severely violated the human and constitutional rights of those at the facility.
该案中的最新严重警告包含在要求法官认定东蒙大拿营状况非法并要求整改的文件中，并主张由独立监督人执行合规。
The latest severe warnings in the case are included in documents that ask the judge to find Camp East Montana’s conditions unlawful and require improvements, with an independent monitor enforcing compliance.
这起诉讼由美国公民自由联盟基金会、德克萨斯州美国公民自由联盟基金会、德克萨斯州民权项目以及Farella Braun + Martel LLP律师事务所代表被拘留者提起。
The lawsuit was filed by the American Civil Liberties Union Foundation, the ACLU Foundation of Texas, the Texas Civil Rights Project, and the law firm Farella Braun + Martel LLP on behalf of detainees.
他们最新提交的申请是一份要求发布临时禁令的动议，旨在请求法院命令被告方切实保障被拘留者的健康与安全。目前，仍有多名被拘留者反映称，狱警存在滥用武力及骚扰行为；医疗条件极差，卫生用品极度匮乏；他们还面临各种传染性疾病的威胁，食物供应也严重不足。这些情况引发了诸多涉嫌违反宪法与相关法律的问题，同时也引发了伦理层面的争议。
Their new request is a motion for preliminary injunction asking the court to order defendants to protect the health and safety of the detainees. It comes as people detained there continue to describe alleged use of force and harassment from guards, lack of appropriate medical care, extremely limited access to hygiene products, exposure to serious contagious illnesses, not enough edible food and other concerns that raise alleged constitutional and statutory issues as well as ethical ones.
新提交的法庭文件指出：“所有被拘留者的遭遇都大同小异——他们均遭到狱警无休止的肢体与言语虐待；好几天甚至好几周都见不到阳光；居住环境肮脏拥挤，麻疹、肺结核等疾病频频爆发；医疗护理严重缺失，导致许多人遭受不必要的痛苦甚至死亡。”
“All tell similar stories – of relentless physical and verbal abuse by guards; of going days or weeks without seeing the sun; of filthy, crowded living conditions with repeated outbreaks of measles, tuberculosis and other diseases; and of egregious medical neglect that has resulted in unnecessary suffering and death,” the new court filing says.
文件中引述了一名未透露姓名的男性被拘留者的话：“我在这里快饿死了。每次吃完东西都会呕吐。现在的我瘦得皮包骨，完全不是从前的样子。我觉得自己随时都可能死在这里。”今年3月，特朗普政府将负责运营该ICE拘留设施的承包商由另一家弗吉尼亚州公司更换为总部位于弗吉尼亚州的Amentum Services, Inc.。此次更换正值ICE监管下的东蒙大拿营地接连出现三名被拘留者死亡事件之后。
One unnamed male detainee is quoted as saying: “I am dying of hunger here. I throw up frequently after eating. I am a skeleton of the person I was before. Any day now, I think I will die here.”The Trump administration swapped contractors at the privately run ICE facility to Amentum Services, Inc, a Virginia-based company, in March, from a different Virginia-based contractor. The move followed three deaths of Camp East Montana detainees in the custody of ICE.
周四提交的法庭文件还记载了这样一件事：上述三名死者中有一人的女儿，在父亲去世前一天通过视频通话见到了他，当时“他仿佛正被自己的血淹没”。这位父亲的医生告诉她，拘留所工作人员“一直拖到最后关头才将他送往医院”。
The court filing on Thursday includes a description of how the daughter of one of those three men saw her father on a video call the day before he died and “[i]t was like he was drowning in his own blood”. His doctor told her that the detention staff “waited until the last minute to take him to the hospital”.
目前，《卫报》已就相关事宜联系美国国土安全部（ICE的上级主管机构）、Amentum公司以及美国国防部寻求回应。美国国防部则建议《卫报》向国土安全部咨询。
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the parent agency of ICE, Amentum and the Pentagon have been approached for comment. The Pentagon referred the Guardian to DHS.
美国国土安全部此前曾表示：“所谓东蒙大拿营存在‘不人道’条件的说法完全不符合事实。”
DHS has previously said that “claims that there are ‘inhumane’ conditions at Camp East Montana are categorically false”.
据非营利新闻机构Pogo Investigates报道，在政府监督机构“拘留监管办公室”检查过的所有设施中，东蒙大拿营出现的违规行为数量堪称最多。
Camp East Montana has received “among the highest number of violations in a single report of any facility” inspected by the government watchdog, the Office of Detention Oversight, according to the non-profit newsroom Pogo Investigates.
2025年8月，在特朗普第二任期内加强移民管控的背景下，该拘留营正式启用。从那时起，就有大量关于其未能达到联邦标准及其他问题的举报出现。根据法庭文件记载，美国移民与海关执法局发现该营地存在医疗服务缺失、卫生条件恶劣以及一把装有子弹的枪支遗失等问题；而美国国防部也在运营首周就指出，该营地在食品供应、安全及卫生方面至少存在22项违规行为。
And warnings of failing to meet official federal standards and other problems began almost as soon as the facility opened in August 2025 amid the second Trump administration’s crackdown on immigration, with ICE noticing medical service gaps, unsanitary conditions and a lost, loaded firearm, while the Pentagon flagged “at least 22 violations” around food services, safety and hygiene during the operation’s first week, according to the court filing.
诉讼文件显示，狱警的不当行为似乎十分普遍，他们“经常对被拘留者使用不必要的过度武力”。其中一名原告杰拉尔德·阿卡里·安吉就因此受伤，导致脊椎和手腕骨折。
Misconduct allegedly runs rampant among guards, who “regularly use unnecessary and excessive force against people”, including against one of the lawsuit’s named plaintiffs, Gerald Akari Angye, who suffered a fractured spine and wrist, attorneys wrote in the court document.
据称，狱警还经常用“同性恋”、“基佬”等侮辱性词汇辱骂被拘留者。文件还提到，有一次一名狱警透露某被拘留者携带艾滋病毒，随后还怂恿其他狱警投票决定是否将该人从居住区中隔离出去。
Guards have also allegedly called detainees slurs including “faggot”, “gay” and “fucker”, and in one instance, a guard disclosed that a person in custody was HIV positive and then had others vote as to whether that person should be removed from the housing unit, the filing alleges.
威廉姆斯在法庭证词中警告称：“东蒙大拿营的被拘留者极有可能遭受狱警的伤害甚至死亡。”
Williams warned in testimony in the filing that “people at Camp East Montana are at risk of serious injury and death at the hands of guards”.
此外，那些寻求医疗帮助的被拘留者有时只能在公共走廊里接受治疗，或者被迫在本该熟睡的深夜接受例行诊疗——即便他们最终能得到治疗也实属不易。据提起诉讼的律师们描述，曾有一名护士甚至教唆某被拘留者自残，以此阻止其继续求助。
At the same time, people in custody who have sought out healthcare have sometimes allegedly undergone treatment in public hallways or had regular appointments in the middle of the night, when they should have been sleeping – if they received care at all. In one example, “a nurse told someone to harm himself, making him stop asking for help”, according to the attorneys filing the latest accusations.
据报道，今年2月和3月有十多人感染麻疹；5月和6月，又有数百人被隔离观察以防疾病传播。与此同时，11月份，据称有一名肺结核患者被安排与普通被拘留者同住。
More than a dozen people reportedly contracted measles in February and March, with hundreds more held in quarantine and isolation for the disease in May and June. Meanwhile, in November, someone with tuberculosis was allegedly housed within the facility’s general population.
律师们指出，该拘留所内普遍缺乏肥皂，被拘留者只能限量使用洗发水——这些洗发水包装仅相当于一次性番茄酱小包装的大小，即便如此仍不足以让他们在如厕后和进食前洗净双手。
The facility is accused of conditions where soap is widely unavailable, so detainees must ration containers of shampoo “the size of single-use ketchup packets, but even then [they] do not have enough to wash their hands after using the bathroom and before eating”, the attorneys alleged.
此外，由于拘留所内没有指甲刀，狱警竟告知被拘留者可以咬掉指甲。据法庭文件记载，对于脚趾甲，狱警甚至说：“能咬掉的就咬掉吧。”
And without access to nail clippers in the housing units, guards have instead told people they can bite their nails, and, on their toenails, the guards have allegedly been heard to say: “If you can bite them, bite them,” according to the court filing.
律师们在最新的诉状中写道：“雨水、石块、老鼠和蟋蟀都能进入生活区；厕所经常堵塞甚至溢水，却迟迟得不到维修。尿液、粪便及人体异味始终弥漫在空气中。”
“Rain, rocks, mice, and crickets infiltrate the living areas. Toilets clog and overflow and are not timely fixed. The foul smell of urine, feces, and body odor is ever-present,” the attorneys wrote in the latest filing.
他们强调，这种恶劣环境“完全没有任何正当的行政或管理必要性”。
They underscored that these conditions “serve no legitimate governmental purpose”.
