ICE Detainee Death Toll: Just the Cost of Doing Business?
The constant stream of 'allegations' of medical neglect, abuse, and death in ICE facilities isn't a bug; it's a feature. The Intercept details how Batavia, like countless other detention centers, is a taxpayer-funded black box where oversight is minimal and accountability is a myth. This isn't just one bad apple; it's a system designed to cut costs at the expense of human life, often run by
private corporations whose profit margins soar while detainees suffer. The US government consistently funnels billions into these detention networks, prioritizing enforcement over basic human dignity. How many more 'allegations' and tragic deaths will it take for us to question why we tolerate such barbarism disguised as 'immigration policy'?
