The 60 Minutes report that did not air in the United States but was broadcast in Canada examines conditions inside El Salvador’s CECOT prison, where men deported from the U.S. were detained earlier this year. The segment links what is shown on camera to a 2023 U.S. government human-rights report that warned of abuse, torture, overcrowding, and denial of due process in El Salvador’s prison system. Footage shows detainees being stripped, shaved, and processed under armed guard, while testimony describes beatings, confinement in small enclosed spaces, and severe water deprivation. The report also states that the U.S. paid El Salvador about six million dollars to take in detainees. While CECOT remains operational, there is currently no confirmed program sending new people from the U.S. there, and most of the Venezuelan detainees sent earlier this year have since been released and returned to Venezuela. The segment raises serious questions about human rights, accountability, and why a completed investigation was pulled from U.S. airwaves. #60Minutes #CECOT #HumanRights #PressFreedom #DueProcess #Deportation #Detention #InvestigativeJournalism #GlobalNews
