Andrew Tate has claimed that his conditions at the Federal Detention Center (FDC) in Miami have been “downgraded” and says he is taking legal action against the facility.
He also claimed that he has seen 10 to 15 roaches on the walls and ceiling at a time. In his statement, Andrew Tate said he had spent 61 days in the SHU, or Special Housing Unit, which he described as a punitive unit for inmates who attack other prisoners or guards. Andrew and Tristan Tate were arrested in Miami on July 18 after US authorities received a UK request connected to additional charges. A September 9 US court filing confirmed that their request for release had been denied.
In a statement shared on his X account, Tate alleged that he has been kept in punitive housing and is now facing problems including no hot water, no air conditioning and a serious roach infestation. Tate and his brother Tristan remain in custody in Miami while they fight extradition to the UK. “Since the time I have come into this jail I have been forced to endure punitive housing. During my time here, I have watched men come and go, men who have stabbed other inmates. The brothers deny wrongdoing and are fighting extradition to Britain.
