Detention center proposal off the table for Caldwell County, Texas

Overwhelming opposition met a proposal from Louisiana-based Emerald Correctional Management LLC for a $30 million, 1,000-bed facility that would be used to separately house men and women who had been detained as illegal immigrants.

According to one commissioner Joe Roland,
