Description:

At least 48 people have died in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody since President Donald Trump returned to office last January.


Last year, 33 people died while in ICE custody — the highest since the agency was created in 2003.


A new investigation by the San Francisco Chronicle poured through detention data, ICE death reports, autopsies and more to reveal a series of medical delays and misdiagnoses while detained.


We talk about their findings and what they reveal about medical treatment within immigration facilities.
