60 Minutes CECOT

This video is a preserved copy of a completed *60 Minutes* investigative segment examining the CECOT detention facility in El Salvador.

The report documents conditions inside the facility, addresses deaths and human-rights concerns, and examines the legal implications of U.S. cooperation with CECOT. Although the investigation was completed by *60 Minutes* journalists, the segment was not aired in full following internal editorial decisions.

CECOT has since been publicly referenced by Donald Trump and allied officials as a model or destination for large-scale detention and deportation outside the United States, raising serious concerns regarding due process, extrajudicial detention, and U.S. involvement in human-rights abuses.

This video is archived here in the public interest due to its relevance to immigration enforcement policy and the decision not to broadcast the segment as completed.
