The GEO Group and Charlton County signed an amendment to an agreement late last year that nearly quadruples the number of beds for federal immigration detainees near the Florida-Georgia border, from 780 to 3,018. It does that by adding beds in two nearby buildings in the Folkston area, one of which served as a federal prison until last year.
The Folkston ICE Processing Center: 780 beds
D. Ray James Correctional Facility: 1,900 beds
Folkston Annex: 338
