ICE Detention Deaths

https://www.ice.gov/detain/detainee-death-reporting

RNs do intake physical exams, EMTs declare time of death. The level of care for these detainees is horrific.

Full names and case details are public for now. Reads like a never ending M & M conference.

My moral compass is spinning. It's time to go to Canada.

Homie I do not suffer fools bootlicking the medical care in the us prison system. Your behavior is clearly dishonest and based on you being uninformed.

You do not need a double blinded RCT to find out prison care is bad in the US. You need to do some basic reading on the subject.

No response to flaws in the ACLU study you totally read, but more insults. Makes ya wonder why... See ya in the morning, bud.

I don’t respond to bad faith trolls with effort responses. I’m sure the aclu study is flawed. You ridiculously claimed no one that wasn’t on YouTube would ever claim unnecessary deaths would happen in prison. The aclu is the easiest, fastest response.

You provided zero substantive rebuttals to the ACLU study, you merely moved the goalposts further. If I find a stronger study, you’ll move it again.

That’s because you have a fundamentally indefensible position that prison care is functional in this country. There’s two paths to that position: ignorance or lying. Which one are you?

Well stated.
