“Is there any sign of life?” “Have we heard a heartbeat?” “Does she feel any kicking?” “We don’t have the equipment to do that.” That’s the full 911 audio from a nurse inside an ICE detention center near Denver, calling for help as a four-months-pregnant woman bled and cried out in pain. This isn’t an isolated failure. Across the country, ICE detention centers are in a full-blown medical crisis, one hidden behind locked doors and sealed records. With zero congressional oversight. In just the first few months of this year, 10 of the largest ICE facilities made nearly 400 emergency 911 calls, including: - 50+ potential cardiac episodes - 26 seizures - 17 head injuries - 6 sexual abuse reports (including staff on detainee) - Pregnancy complications at more than half of facilities And that’s just what made it to 911. Most emergencies never leave the gates. But the system-wide failures go even deeper: - In Texas, detained adults and children have been fighting for clean water. - Disabled detainees, like double amputee, are being denied prosthetics and basic medical devices, leaving them immobile and at risk. - A 68-year-old man died in ICE custody this May during transport in Georgia, no proper medical response, no accountability. - Miami’s Krome facility has seen multiple deaths amid severe overcrowding and medical neglect. - The Irwin County Detention Center was exposed for performing invasive gynecological procedures on detainees, often without clear consent. - Private prison giants like CoreCivic and GEO run many of these facilities. Their track records? Dozens of deaths, massive understaffing, and near-zero transparency. - ICE has shut down its internal oversight arms, slashing inspections and leaving detained people with no real way to report abuse. Clean water, medical care, and safety. These are non-negotiable human rights. Instead, we’re seeing a taxpayer-funded machine of neglect, profit, and cruelty. This is not broken it’s working exactly as designed by the Trump administration. Abolish ICE!
因犯罪而被撤销美国绿卡的49岁加拿大男子诺维叶罗(Johnny Noviello)上个月遭移民暨海关执法局(ICE)逮捕送狱,还在等候遣返时,23日被发现死在佛州迈阿密监狱里,原因正在调查。
每日邮报26日引述ICE报告指出,诺维叶罗于1988年入境美国,1991年取得合法永久居留权,2023年因敲诈、贩毒被法院定罪,绿卡也因此被取消。按理,绿卡失效后,他应自动离境,但他仍非法居留在美国国内,直到5月在ICE取缔非法移民行动中被逮捕。
23日,有人发现「还在遣送程序中」的诺维叶罗不省人事,医护人员急救无效,声明死亡。
ICE指出,他被定罪的原因是走私贩卖类鸦片剂羟考酮(oxycodone,又译奥施康定),以及非法使用对讲机犯罪。2023年12月,法院判处他12个月徒刑。佛州沃卢西亚郡(Volusia County)监狱数据显示,他在去年2月获释。
今年5月,ICE在佛州假释办公室将他逮捕,并着手将他遣送出境,法律根据是他曾因管制药物有关罪行被定罪,羁押期间,有对他提供「完善的医疗照护」,不料发生此事。
法院档案显示,诺维叶罗有癫痫症,为防止癫痫发作,有必要提供医疗照护。
ICE已将诺维叶罗的死讯通知加拿大驻美官员。加拿大政府要求美方提供进一步细节。
沃卢西亚郡监狱表示,早于2017年,诺维叶罗就曾因走私、贩售奥施康定,被控罪而入狱。
ICE先前也逮捕了另一名加拿大人,来自卑诗省的35岁女子慕妮(Jasmine Mooney),她从墨西哥赴美办理工作签证延期时被逮捕,拘禁近两周后,3月中旬被遣返加拿大。据悉是她父亲伊格斯(Alexis Eagles)动用了「政治关系」,包括卑诗省长和加拿大外交部的影响力,才加速她获释返加。
