We head to one of them -- Folkston, Georgia, a community of about 2,800 residents..
That number will soon swell as immigrant detainees fill up a growing ICE detention center at the edge of town.
The center is in a old prison run by the private prison corporation, the GEO Group, and is set to become the nation’s largest detention facility.We hear about the hopes and fears of the town's residents.
