Here's an excerpt from the court filing, which says the footage "has been irretrievably destroyed and therefore cannot be produced on an expedited basis, or at all":
1. Surveillance Video from Inside Broadview. In their Expedited Discovery Request No. 9, Plaintiffs request surveillance video from inside the Broadview facility captured by Defendants’ equipment for a limited set of days, starting in mid-September 2025. Plaintiffs also request current video on a weekly basis. Defendants have agreed to produce video from September 28, 2025, to October 19, 2025, and also from October 31, 2025, to November 7, 2025. Plaintiffs are providing Defendants with hard drives for this production, and the parties expect that this initial production will be made shortly. The parties are discussing ways to ease the burden of production of video going forward, including by having Plaintiffs select random days for production rather than the production of all video on an on-going basis. Defendants have indicated that some video between October 19, 2025, and October 31, 2025, has been irretrievably destroyed and therefore cannot be produced on an expedited basis or at all. Plaintiffs are in the process of hiring an IT contractor. Plaintiffs’ contractor will meet with the government’s ESI Liaison (with attorneys on the phone) to attempt to work through issues concerning the missing video, including whether any content is able to be retrieved. While Plaintiffs intend to explore the issue of missing footage, Plaintiffs have communicated to

Footage is missing from October 19 through October 31. This is during a period of mass protest in front of the facility, which has led to many arrests. The footage was sought as discovery in a case where people detained there claim abuse and horrendous living conditions:
The filing was made as part of a class action lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security by people being held at Broadview, which has become the site of widespread protests against ICE. The lawsuit says that people detained at the facility are being held in abhorrent, “inhumane” conditions. The complaint describes a facility where detainees are “confined at Broadview inside overcrowded holding cells containing dozens of people at a time. People are forced to attempt to sleep for days or sometimes weeks on plastic chairs or on the filthy concrete floor. They are denied sufficient food and water […] the temperatures are extreme and uncomfortable […] the physical conditions are filthy, with poor sanitation, clogged toilets, and blood, human fluids, and insects in the sinks and the floor […] federal officers who patrol Broadview under Defendants’ authority are abusive and cruel. Putative class members are routinely degraded, mistreated, and humiliated by these officers.”
