\n\t\t\t\t\t\tAn immigrant rights activist is marching several miles across part of Pennsylvania. Jaime Martinez will walk 117 miles over eight days from Pittsburgh to an ICE detention center facility in Clearfield County. Organizers said they want to draw attention to the conditions at the center, which is the largest detention facility in the Northeast. “There’s nothing humane about a system that isolates, dehumanizes and disappears people from the public view, and there’s nothing about building entire institutions that rely on the suffering of others to sustain and enrich themselves,” said Martinez. The march will end on April 12 with a vigil at the Moshannon Valley Processing Center. Advocates have called on Clearfield County officials to shut it down because of concerns about the conditions there. A ICE detainee arrested in Dauphin County was found dead at the processing center last August.\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n
