More people have died in ICE custody in last 9 months than in the entire prior 4 years.
We hear of a few, but most barely make the news.
Cases like Randall Alberto Gamboa Esquivel.
He was in perfect health when ICE detained him.
He disappeared in June & by August was in a vegetative state.
ICE deported him anyways.
They literally put a man who was at death’s door on a plane to Costa Rica.
Doctors there found he had encephalopathy, rhabdomyolysis and the inability to eat on his own.
What happened to him in ICE custody to cause this?
He died a few weeks after deportation:
ICE enforcement may be a mass disabling event.
Disease is rampant in the camps.
Disabled people report having their medical needs ignored and their conditions drastically worsened.
The indiscriminate use of chemical weapons and violence causes harm.
Abolish ICE.
