The U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency is preparing to eliminate the requirement to report deaths of detainees that occur within 30 days of their release, returning to the practice of only announcing deaths that happen during detention periods. This comes amid a rise in detainee deaths this year, which reached 18 cases in the first five months, with expectations that the total for the year will surpass last year's figure of 30 deaths—the highest in the past two decades. The adjustment aims to reduce the agency's liability after detainees are released, at a time when Trump administration decisions regarding permanent residency requests are raising concerns among immigrants and human rights advocates.
