A migrant in Honduran died at a troubled desert detention center in the Supreme Desert in California on Wednesday evening while detention for migration and customs (ICE). The 46-year-old Vinlente Cacers-Maaradiaga was receiving treatment for multiple medical conditions while the Immigration Court was waiting for a report if he would be deported, according to ice. statement. He collapsed while playing football in the detention facility and died while he was to a local hospital.
The death of Cacers-MaAdiaga is the latest in a series of deaths between detainees held at the Adelento detention facility, run by Geo Group, the largest private prison company in the country. Three people have died in the facility in the past three months, including Osmar Epiphanio Gonzalez-Gadba32 -year -old Nicaragua found suspended in his cell on March 22nd, Sergio Alonso LopezMexican man died due to internal bleeding on April 13 after spending more than two months in reservation.
Since its inauguration in 2011, Adelanto has faced accusations of insufficient medical care and bad conditions. In July 2015, he sent 29 members of Congress A. letter To the ice inspectors and federalists who ask to investigate health and safety concerns in the facility. They cited the death of Fernando Domingoyes for the year 2012 in the facility, saying that it was the result of “terrible errors” by the medical staff at the center, which did not give him appropriate medical examinations or allow him to receive treatment in time in time. In November 2015, 400 detainees began a hunger strike, demanding better medical care and dental care with other repairs.
The federal government guarantees that at least 975 migrants will be held in the facility and pay $ 111 per detainee per day.
However, last year, the city of Adnto, which works as a simple Extension of the company’s contract Until 2021, the federal government guarantees that 975 migrants will be held in the facility and pay 111 dollars per detainee per day, according to Senator California Ricardo Lara (Di Bell Gardens), who fought to reduce the detention of private immigration. After this point, ICE must pay 50 dollars per detainee per day – an incentive to fill more family.
Among the four immigration detention centers in California, three local governments are used as mediators between Ice Prison companies and private prison companies. On Tuesday, the California Senate voted 26-13 to prohibit such contracts, and support a draft law that could close Adelanto when his contract was running out in 2021. The act of dignity, not the detention lawThat Lara composes, would prevent local governments from signing or expanding contracts with private prison companies to detention of migrants who start in 2019. The bill will also require all facilities in countries that are holding ice detainees, including special detention centers on both their public prisons, in fulfilling national standards for the conditions of detention,-
A identical bill was approved last year, but it was vetoed by state governor Jerry Brown. Brown wrote in his book Cassation message Last September. But he was postponed to the Ministry of Internal Security, who was then reviewed to be used for detention of profit migration. In this review, the Advisory Council for Internal Security refused the continuous use of special prison companies to detain migrants, noting the “lowest private prison model.” However, since President Donald Trump took office, the federal government has moved to expand private immigration detention and sign a A $ 110 million deal With Geo in April to build the first new immigration detention center during the Trump era.
Nine people died in the ice custody in the 2017 fiscal year, which started October 1. Private prison shares almost Doubling In value since election day.
