If you haven’t caught part one or part two of our series, we recommend checking it out first before starting this installment. 

 ICEd Out is a deep dive by The Pennsylvania Capital-Star’s Emily Previti into how Schuylkill County could be affected by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s plans to convert an old warehouse into a 7,500 person detention facility there.

Today’s installment takes you along as Emily explores the risks  the project poses to an area that’s already struggling to mitigate harms from unwanted industries past and present.
