On Tuesday, a 78-year-old priest who is unable to walk was released from an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility in Colorado following more than a year in immigration detention. Because facility staff reportedly refused to let him use a facility wheelchair beyond the gate, fellow detainees carried him out of the facility.
The incident highlights the conditions surrounding the release of vulnerable detainees from immigration custody, drawing attention to the physical challenges faced by long-term detainees upon their departure from federal facilities.
