Accountability dossier

Central Louisiana ICE Processing Center is a GEO-owned property in Jena used by ICE under published intergovernmental service agreement 07-0015. ICE's fiscal 2026 workbook reports an average daily population of 1,168.6 against a guaranteed minimum of 1,170. GEO's own facility page describes the company providing medical access, visitation, library, food, recreation and religious-practice support on behalf of ICE. Civil-rights organizations filed complaints alleging medical neglect, retaliation, sexual abuse and prolonged solitary confinement; those records are allegations unless an agency, court or medical record establishes them. A federal court separately recounted Mahmoud Khalil's March 2025 transfer to and booking at the Jena facility. A complaint, a transfer record, a company disclosure and an inspection rating are held apart here, not read as interchangeable findings.

Partial dossier · Last reviewed August 21, 2026

Published as substantial but partial. Identity, current population, company-reported ownership and support services, agreement identity, inspection and audit history, complaint allegations and one federal-court transfer record are established. The local counterparty, the current operating entity, the contract economics, the inspection findings and the complaint dispositions are not.

Who is involved, and on what basis

OwnerThe GEO Group, Inc.
No effective period printed in the indexed record
GEO's Form 10-K facility table prints the Jena facility's property status as Owned, and GEO's current facility page presents it as a company location. The November 2013 contract commencement in the same filing row is a contract date and is not used here as a property-acquisition date.
What this does not establish
The acquisition date, the deed holder, the mortgage chain, or whether title sits in a subsidiary rather than the public parent.
U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission / The GEO Group, Inc.The GEO Group, Inc.
Service providerThe GEO Group, Inc.
No effective period printed in the indexed record
GEO's current facility page states that the company provides support services on behalf of ICE, including medical access, visitation, libraries, food, recreation and religious-practice support. This is a company-authored description, carried as attributed.
What this does not establish
That GEO directly employs every medical, food, legal-access or specialty-services worker at the site, or that the company page independently verifies service quality. It does not establish a facility-wide operator role.
The GEO Group, Inc.
Federal agencyU.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement
November 1, 2013 — no end date printed
ICE lists the facility in its fiscal 2026 detention workbook, publishes inspection entries for the site, and publishes intergovernmental service agreement 07-0015 for it. GEO's filing reports the current ICE-IGA contract era commencing in November 2013.
What this does not establish
The company-reported November 2013 commencement does not establish first-ever ICE use of the property. Agency custody establishes no price, per diem, obligation or payment, and does not establish who operates the facility.

The facility record beside the money record

Lanes are shown side by side because they share a facility and a calendar, not a cause. Chronological proximity does not establish causation.

Only dated events are plotted. Records carrying an as-of or dataset-cutoff date, such as ICE’s fiscal-year population aggregates, are listed in the table instead, because a data-pull date is not the date something happened.

What this dossier does and does not establish

Establishes

The current workbook facility and the historical LaSalle and Jena inspection names refer to the same Jena property.
GEO's Form 10-K facility table prints the property as owned, with capacity 1,160, customer ICE - IGA, and a contract commencement of November 2013.
GEO publicly describes providing medical, food, visitation, library, recreation and religious-practice support services at the facility on behalf of ICE.
ICE publishes intergovernmental service agreement 07-0015 for the LaSalle Detention Facility.

ICE's fiscal 2026 workbook reports an average daily population of 1,168.6, an average length of stay of 18.5 days, a guaranteed minimum of 1,170, and a Pass rating for an inspection ending January 8, 2026.
Civil-rights organizations filed complaints alleging serious mistreatment at the facility.

What this does not establish

The named local intergovernmental counterparty and the exact current operating entity are not established.
No current contract price, per diem, obligation, outlay or payment for unused capacity is established.
An average daily population below the guaranteed minimum does not establish that ICE paid for empty beds; no cost is modeled from the difference.
Nothing here establishes that any complaint allegation was substantiated by an agency, a court or a medical record.
Company descriptions of support services do not establish service quality.
The January 2026 Pass rating does not establish that no deficiencies were cited.
The Khalil litigation record does not adjudicate facility conditions and is not a harm record.
No death, preventability finding, negligence finding or contractor-causation claim is established here.
