There are also two Italian citizens in the superprison for illegal immigrants awaiting deportation built by U.S. President Donald Trump in the wildest corner of Florida. That is, in the middle of the swamps of the Everglades, populated by alligators and which in fact has been christened “Alligator Alcatraz”. The presence among the detainees of two Italians was confirmed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Rome, according to which “the Consulate General of Italy in Miami and the Italian Embassy in Washington, are following the situation”. They are Gaetano Cateno Mirabella Costa, a 45-year-old Sicilian native of Taormina, and Fernando Eduardo Artese, 63, who is also an Argentine citizen having been born in Buenos Aires. Artese was arrested June 25 for overstay, or staying on U.S. soil beyond the expiration of his visa. The Italian-Argentinean had been in the United States for nearly a decade. Interviewed by phone by a Florida newspaper, he recounted, "This is a concentration camp. They treat us like criminals, it is a quest for humiliation. We are all workers and people fighting for our families". The second Italian detained is Sicilian Mirabella Costa charged with possession of drugs without a prescription and assault.
