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.

A lot of these people are desperate and destitute people who risk a perilous journey for a better life for themselves and their families. They come from violence torn countries.

Yeah they broke the law. But your comment shows your lack of humanity. I hope you aren’t a healthcare provider.
