A Cuban migrant held in solitary confinement at an immigration detention facility in Texas died after guards held him down and he stopped breathing, according to an autopsy report released Wednesday that ruled the death a homicide.

Geraldo Lunas Campos died Jan. 3 following an altercation with guards. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) originally said the 55-year-old father of four was attempting suicide and the staff tried to save him.

But a witness told The Associated Press last week that Lunas Campos was handcuffed as at least five guards held him down and one put an arm around his neck and squeezed until he was unconscious.

At least 30 people died in ICE custody last year, the highest level in two decades, agency figures show. In the first 10 days of 2026, four immigrants, including Lunas Campos, died while in federal immigration custody.

And the crowd goes wild! Spineless Americans just love this shit. What a nasty country it's become. Maybe always has been.

They're probably just a troll, account's only a couple weeks old

Talking about all you 2a fucks doing dick all. 40 years all I've heard is 2a this and 2a that. Turns out it was just an excuse for daily school shootings.

And we're told in Canada how we don't have freedom, we don't have guns to defend ourselves, so on and so on. But when push comes to shove, it's America that is 350 million bootlickers who eat Donald Trunps shit up and couldn't be bothered to raise a finger.

But hey do another "No Kings" protest or some other useless shit. You have one every few months, right? Really moving the needle?

WAKE UP

I'm with you. Decades and decades of americans watching action movies and stroking their guns whilst thinking about what they'd do if someone comes along and tries to take over...yet when a fat, old, orange, child raping, failed reality TV star comes along and takes over there's not as much as a fucking whimper. Pathetic, really.

Maybe a piss poor protest every 5 or so months will have the obese imbecile shaking in his boots...?

Sounds like you might benefit from some therapy, buddy.
