🧭 About
Welcome to “Secret White Sites EXPOSED”, a platform dedicated to exposing the hidden mechanics and consequences of Intergovernmental Service Agreements (IGSAs)—the contracts that allow federal agencies to house detainees in local jails, often with little public oversight. These agreements, while bureaucratic on the surface, have deep and lasting effects on communities, budgets, and civil liberties.
This site was founded by LeRoy Nellis, a passionate advocate for transparency, ethical governance, and community empowerment. With a background in exploring legal systems, public policy, and the philosophical dimensions of justice, LeRoy brings a unique blend of analytical rigor and heartfelt concern to this work. As someone who has experienced life as a detainee firsthand, he offers a perspective that is both deeply personal and informed by lived experience. His journey began with a simple question: Who decides what happens in our jails—and why don’t we know more about it?
Through research, writing, and public engagement, LeRoy has uncovered how IGSA contracts—often negotiated behind closed doors—can lead to overcrowded facilities, strained local resources, and diminished accountability. His work is driven by a belief that informed citizens are the cornerstone of ethical governance, and that silence in the face of systemic injustice is never neutral.
What We Do
- Investigate the legal and financial structures behind IGSA contracts
- Expose the societal consequences of federal-local jail partnerships
- Advocate for transparency, public input, and humane detention practices
- Educate communities on how these agreements affect their lives and budgets
Why It Matters
IGSAs are more than line items in a budget—they are instruments of power. When used without transparency or accountability, they can perpetuate cycles of incarceration, erode public trust, and burden local governments with federal responsibilities. This site exists to challenge that status quo.
Join the Movement
Whether you’re a concerned citizen, a policymaker, or someone directly affected by these agreements, your voice matters. LeRoy invites you to explore, question, and act. Together, we can demand a system that reflects our values—not just our contracts.
