Family and advocates say the 56-year-old complained of severe tooth pain for weeks before the infection turned fatal, raising renewed questions about medical care and oversight inside ICE detention fa
You’re right. When someone dies in custody after repeatedly asking for medical care, accountability isn’t optional. Systems that hold human beings have a duty to protect their lives.
These detention centers are an abomination and there should be more of a push to close them down. They are being run for profit. Many have not been charged with anything. They are getting one meal a day and no medical care. If they want to buy more food they are being charged outrageous prices. Poor hygiene, no health care and I would bet trump is getting a cut.
A tooth infection should never become a death sentence.
Families deserve answers when someone dies in detention.
Horrible, the entire situation is horrible, all due to fear and hatred, and Stephen Miller, the face of evil spewing his sickness.
You’re naming the cruelty many people are seeing in cases like this.
Who will rid us of these murderous, hateful fascists?
Unbelievable! How many people in ICE custody need to die before our legislators reign in their abusive power?
Unbelievable indeed.
When the state takes someone into custody, it assumes a duty of care.
When that duty is ignored, deaths like Nurul Amin Shah Alam’s are the result — and accountability cannot remain optional.
There is no excuse for this, and accountability should apply.

America great yet. Disgusting republicans
It's heartbreaking 💔

Evil is running things in the US 😡😞
Yes. What happened to Emmanuel Damas should never happen to anyone in custody. Access to medical care is a basic responsibility.
Another ICE murder.
Yes . So many innocent people have lost their lives for simple coming to America for a better life.
BARBARIC!!!
HEARTBREAKING 💔
There does need to be a Nuremberg 2.0 as Senator Ron Wyden posted. All of the pain and terror and death they’ve inflicted already and the future deaths due to their warmongering, and their flagrant disregard of our Constitution needs to be reckoned with as soon as we win the midterms. This is crucial, or we may not have midterms: https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2026/03/election-deniers-executive-order-emergency-trump-ticktin-corsi-bannon/
You’re naming the scale of the harm people are reacting to.
When someone dies in custody after weeks of untreated pain, anger and demands for accountability are inevitable.
Families deserve answers, and the system responsible for his care must be held to account.
More people have died in ICE custody during this Trump term than did his previous one, and we are not even halfway through.
That’s an important point.
Behind those numbers are families who lost someone in detention and are still waiting for answers.
At what point does the Gestapo give a damn????
Death penalty

This is horrible! My heart goes out to his family!
I am so angry at the abuse of my immigrant neighbors. Goes against the ideals this country professed to have. 🤬
