Trump stated that \u201cthe reopening of ALCATRAZ will serve as a symbol of Law, Order, and JUSTICE\u201d in a post that was shared on Truth Social on Sunday evening.<\/p>\n
Trump has directed the Bureau of Prisons to work with the FBI, Homeland Security, and Department of Justice to \u201creopen a substantially enlarged and rebuilt\u201d Alcatraz.<\/p>\n
The notorious institution allegedly housed legendary criminal Al Capone, who said it would \u201chouse America\u2019s most ruthless and violent Offenders.\u201d<\/p>\n
Following Trump\u2019s multiple legal disputes with the government over his attempts to send suspected gang members and illegal migrants to a notorious prison in El Salvador, the order was issued.<\/p>\n
Trump will be able to use the maximum security prison, which was shut down in 1963, to get around the court decisions that prohibit him from carrying out the mass deportation plan.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will no longer be held hostage to criminals, thugs, and judges that are afraid to do their job and allow us to remove criminals, who came into our Country illegally,\u201d he tweeted, seemingly hinting that illegal migrants would be the first to be imprisoned.<\/p>\n
According to Trump, up to 30,000 of the \u201cworst criminal aliens\u201d will be housed in a prison facility that will be built in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.<\/p>\n
Some courts have ruled that he must provide deportees with due process. In the event that legal problems arise, a revitalized Alcatraz might also address Trump\u2019s suggestion that US citizens could be sent there and to other foreign prisons.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe dregs of society, vicious, violent, and repeat criminal offenders, have plagued America for far too long and will only ever contribute misery and suffering,\u201d he wrote.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
