Summary
Another tragic death in a Texas immigration detention center: 63-year-old Mexican immigrant Felix Alcorta-Rodriguez died June 19 after being found unresponsive at the Webb County Detention Center. ICE calls it natural causes, though the full autopsy is pending. This is the fifth death in Texas facilities this year — raising urgent questions about conditions and care. Alcorta-Rodriguez, who had prior DWI and other charges, was arrested by ICE just days after being released from county jail. ICE says he received medical attention while in custody and had entered the U.S. illegally. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
