1/6 Pablo Sánchez, a 40 year old from Venezuela, died in ICE Custody last Friday, October, 1st. Pablo had AIDS and fled persecution seeking asylum in the US for his safety and health. Pablo was detained by CBP at Del Río City, Texas 
2/6 Pablo was forced into detention where his health quickly deteriorated due to medical neglect. ICE was fully aware of Pablo’s medical fragility and failed to release him so that he could obtain life-saving interventions.
3/6 Pablo died because ICE was reckless and negligent and the lack of appropriate medical care resulted in complications with acute respiratory impairment, acquired immunodeficiency syndrome, pneumonia, acute renal failure, anemia and covid-19.
4/6 Pablo was from Falcon,Venezuela was loved by their family & enjoyed times with them at the beach.The US Government/DHS/ICE continues to punish & torture individuals especially vulnerable populations like Pablo who are simply seeking safety & the possibility of a healthy life.
5/6 We have been warning DHS and ICE for years and years (even before the Trump admin) that this cruel practice of detaining vulnerable immigrants should NOT be the immediate default response and pathway for those seeking refuge and safety.
6/6 We cannot let DHS/ICE/CBP/Private Prison Corporations continue to act with impunity as they continue to cage, torture, isolate, profit, and deny people’s humanity. #dignitynotdetention #abolishICE #NoPrideInDetention #EndTransDetention #wearehome #Immigration #eyesonICE
