If you can leave then you're not detained, you're just not allowed to go wherever you want. Look, I don't agree with some of our immigration policy, but the people in these facilities are there by choice. They are also there while they argue their case, which is the definition of due process.
I don't consider it due process when many of them have not even been accused of any crimes according to this report: https://www.oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/files/assets/2019-06/OIG-19-47-Jun19.pdf
A lot of these people aren't in these camps by choice. They are seeking asylum, something they have a legal right to do, and are not here illegally and they don't have a place to go back to. That means they don't have a choice. They cannot go free anytime they choose.
