Editing New Caprica Detention Center

[[Image:Detention Center.jpg|thumb|right|250px|New Caprica Detention Center during the [[Battle of New Caprica]]]]
The '''New Caprica Detention Center''' is a [[Cylon]] facility on [[New Caprica]] {{TRS|Battlestar Galactica: The Resistance}}.

Physically, it is an imposing concrete structure with a motorized gate of steel bars. It contains facilities for questioning prisoners which are quite reminiscent of police [[Wikipedia:Interrogation|interrogation]] rooms in the real world; they feature bare concrete walls, a small table, two metal chairs, a metal door with a small window, and harsh overhead lighting from a single source.

It is within this facility that [[Number Five]] solicits [[Jammer]] to inform the Cylons on the movements of the [[New Caprica Resistance]] {{TRS|Battlestar Galactica: The Resistance}}.

During the [[Battle of New Caprica]] the prison is stormed by the New Caprica Resistance and [[Colonial Marine Corps|Colonial Marines]] under the command of [[Samuel Anders]] and Gunnery Sergeant [[Erin Mathias|Mathias]], freeing all inmates {{TRS|Exodus, Part II}}.

== Notable Inmates ==

[[Saul Tigh]] is incarcerated in the center until his [[Ellen Tigh|wife]] fornicates with a copy of [[Cavil]] as part of an exchange to free her husband. Suspected to be a high ranking member of the Resistance, Saul is tortured extensively, having an eye ripped out during interrogation {{TRS|Occupation}}. 

[[Laura Roslin]] is detained briefly while being interviewed by [[Gaius Baltar]] about a [[Tucker Clellan|suicide bombing]] perpetrated by a Resistance member {{TRS|Precipice}}.

[[Kara Thrace]] is held captive in a spacious furnished cell where she is forced to live with [[Leoben Conoy]] for the duration of the Cylon occupation, undergoing various forms of psychological abuse for reasons not clarified {{TRS|Occupation}}. Either by coincidence or otherwise, the cell somewhat resembles Kara's apartment in [[Delphi]], and in fact it is not known for certain that the apartment is located within the detention center until the building is liberated by the resistence.

==Notes==
* The fact Kara's cell-cum-apartment is in the Detention Center is not revealed until her escape in "[[Exodus, Part II]]".
