    "I Can't Breathe" Deaths Inside America's Immigration Detention System

    On January 3rd, 2026, a 55-year-old man named Geraldo Lunas Campos was standing in line at an immigration detention facility in El Paso, Texas, waiting for his asthma medication. He never got it. Instead, he was taken to a solitary confinement cell, held down by guards, and died. He said "I can't breathe" — in Spanish — more than once. The government said he tried to kill himself. The county medical examiner said otherwise. The official cause of death: asphyxia due to neck and torso compression. Manner of death: homicide. He is one of 47 people who have died in U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement custody since January 2025 — the deadliest period in the history of the American immigration detention system in more than two decades. In this episode of The Raid, investigative journalist John Carlos Frey goes inside the numbers, the names, and the cover stories. From Geraldo Lunas Campos to Roxsana Hernández — a transgender asylum seeker beaten in a New Mexico private prison — to a 19-year-old indigenous Mexican teenager who died weeks after being detained on charges his family says were fabricated, Frey documents a pattern of medical neglect, physical abuse, deliberate obstruction, and institutional impunity that spans administrations and has never been fully reckoned with.  The Raid is independently produced and available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart, Audible, and all major platforms.

    The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), the nation’s leading authority on child health, has repeatedly and unequivocally opposed the detention of children for immigration purposes; in fact, the AAP’s leadership recently reiterated that all children held in immigration detention should be immediately released, and these facilities should be permanently shuttered.” On the podcast is Barbara Rodriguez. She's the health reporter for the digital publication, "The 19th".

    Mass Family Separation Flies Under the Radar

    John Carlos Frey takes a deep look into the separation of parents from their children during the mass deportation effort.

    Immigrant Detention Facility Sued for Inhumane Conditions

    Alvaro Huerta is the Director of Litigation and Advocacy for Immigrant Defenders Law Center. The organization has recently filed suit against the Adelanto immigrant detention facility in Southern California. The lawsuit alleges, "People have been forced to live in unsanitary conditions and subjected to punitive isolation and neglect, conditions that would be considered abuse in almost any other setting. It specifically challenges the denial of basic necessities at the facility—including medical and mental health care, access to the outdoors, adequate nutrition and water, and sanitary living conditions." Alvaro is on the podcast to talk about the lawsuit, conditions at the Adelanto detention facility and in general, the way migrants are treated in facilities across the country. https://www.immdef.org/blog/ltvice_filing https://theraidpodcast.org/ Disclaimer: The statements and opinions expressed by the host or participants on this program are solely their own and do not necessarily represent those of the distributor of the program and any person or entity affiliated with said distributor ("distributor's affiliates").  The distributor and distributor's affiliates are not responsible for, and shall not be liable for, the statements and opinions expressed by the host or participants, or for any content that appears on the program.       Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
