## Resource

A 77-year-old man with a rare liver disease was allegedly placed in solitary confinement at Otay Mesa Detention Center despite being transferred for better care—his daughter says he struggled to breathe and banged on doors for help, with no response from staff. This isn’t an isolated case: detainees with worsening health report missed surgeries, medication errors, and isolation for medical treatment, raising alarms from medical experts and advocates. ICE claims detainees receive top-tier care, while CoreCivic insists its practices follow federal guidelines. Yet, California’s Department of Justice found facilities falling short of their own standards. With immigrant detainee numbers rising and oversight limited, families and advocates demand immediate release and systemic reform.
