This is a pattern of abuse and neglect. “I know about Delaney Hall and I know that cruelty is at its core. Even after the deaths, violence, abuse, and mistreatment of those inside, Republican leaders, even in our own state, deny the truth and refuse to act. Anyone who doesn’t see these heinous acts for what they are is choosing to do so. “I am praying for the deceased and his family, and I will keep working to shut down Delaney Hall and abolish ICE before more innocent lives are lost.” In December 2025, another detainee died in ICE custody at Delaney Hall. The facility sits within McIver’s district, and is at the center of the Trump administration’s case against her. McIver faces 17 years in prison after ICE escalated a routine oversight visit in May, 2025, leading to baseless federal charges from the Trump DOJ. The case is ongoing. ### | 1 | 2026-08-05T07:37:37Z | 2026-08-05T07:38:44Z |
