This Aug. 10, 2019, shows razor wire fencing at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York. Once hailed as a prototype for a new kind of federal jail and the most secure in the country, the Metropolitan Correctional Center has become a blighted wreck, with infrastructure so crumbling it’s impossible to safely house inmates there. And so the Justice Department said last month it would close the jail by the end of October to undertake much-needed repairs. But it may never reopen. (AP Photo/Bebeto Matthews, File)
