What numbers should I be looking at in the individual detention centers like Adelanto to see if the facility is currently over capacity?
Great question. Local reporting can be helpful. Also, the Washington Post published some capacity numbers for a whole lot of detention centers. They obtained these figures via FOIA request.

I’m not a WP subscriber. Does TRAC show capacity?
TRAC discusses the capacity issue. Still somewhat confusing😂
