And it's the detention center that I witnessed yesterday, and I wanted to see for myself what it was that took place inside. I got a tour, lasted about 40 minutes. Took a look around. There are 15 detainees [at the ICE detention facility in Burlington, Massachusetts]. They are individuals that are there about 12 hours. They do have a right to see an attorney if an attorney can be prescribed for them. (01:47–01:50)
