In the 1970s the company was implicated in supplying chemicals for weapons to Iraq8 Since then it has diversified into incarceration and other areas of security. The resale of part of the Wackenhut Corp. - Wackenhut Corrections - appears to signal a move out of incarceration and back to the company's ‘core’ security and safety business.9 Given the company's record in private prisons, campaigners will certainly hope this is part of a wider trend.
