一名移民被拘留者周六上午在圣地亚哥奥泰梅萨拘留中心死亡，这是特朗普政府执政期间发生的第61起此类死亡事件。总部位于田纳西州的私营监狱公司CoreCivic（核心公民公司）的一位不愿透露姓名的发言人通过电子邮件声明证实了这一死亡消息。该发言人称，奥泰梅萨设施的一名工作人员在周六上午11点36分左右报告了一起医疗急救事件，此前他们在指定生活区发现了一名无反应人员。
An immigrant detainee died Saturday morning at the Otay Mesa Detention Center in San Diego, marking the 61st such death under the Trump administration. In an emailed statement, an unnamed spokesperson with CoreCivic, the Tennessee-based private prison company that operates the facility, confirmed the death. Per the spokesperson, a staff member at the Otay Mesa facility called in a medical emergency around 11:36 a.m. Saturday after finding an unresponsive person in their assigned living area.
发言人表示，医疗人员迅速赶到，开始实施抢救措施，并呼叫了紧急医疗服务（EMS）。急救人员到达后继续抢救，但该人员在设施内被宣告死亡。发言人写道：“我们对任何在我们照管下的人员离世深感悲痛，”并补充说，美国移民与海关执法局（ICE）已立即获知。ICE和国土安全部周二未立即回应置评请求。CoreCivic未提供死者身份信息。
Medical staff arrived quickly, began lifesaving measures and called for emergency medical services, the spokesperson said. EMS arrived and continued those efforts, but the person was pronounced dead at the facility. "We are deeply saddened by the loss of anyone in our care," the spokesperson wrote, adding that Immigration and Customs Enforcement was immediately notified. ICE and the Department of Homeland Security did not immediately respond Tuesday to a request for comment.
这一消息最早由《Daylight San Diego》报道。圣地亚哥县监事帕洛马·阿吉雷周二在声明中写道，ICE和CoreCivic必须迅速联系死者家属，配合彻底调查，并将调查结果公之于众。阿吉雷表示，她已要求县公共卫生官员确定，根据一项允许地方公共卫生当局视察ICE设施的州法律，可以进行何种后续跟进。“某个地方，一个家庭正在等待一个电话，我的心与他们同在，”她写道。
CoreCivic did not provide information about the person's identity. The death was first reported by Daylight San Diego. San Diego County Supervisor Paloma Aguirre, in a statement Tuesday, wrote that ICE and CoreCivic must quickly reach the person's family, cooperate with a thorough investigation and share what they find with the public. Aguirre said she asked the county public health officer to determine what kind of follow-up is possible under a state law that allows local public health authorities to inspect ICE facilities. "Somewhere, a family is waiting for a phone call, and my heart is with them," she wrote.
这是特朗普政府执政期间在加利福尼亚州ICE羁押下死亡的第七人，也是自2023年以来奥泰梅萨设施发生的首起死亡事件。随着特朗普政府拘留创纪录数量的人员，死亡人数有所增加，全国被拘留人口一度激增至7万多人。
This is the seventh person to die while in ICE custody in California under this administration, and the first to die at the Otay Mesa facility since 2023. Deaths have increased as the Trump administration detained record numbers of people, with the population at one point ballooning past 70,000 nationwide.
美国移民与海关执法局（ICE）报告的最近一起死亡案例是48岁的萨尔瓦多移民路易斯·桑多瓦尔（Luis Sandoval），他在周五因疑似自杀身亡。根据ICE的一份新闻稿，位于佐治亚州的Folkston D. Ray ICE处理中心的工作人员发现桑多瓦尔颈部有勒痕。ICE的政策规定，在拘留者死亡后两个工作日内通知公众和国会。通常为三页的更详细的死亡报告必须在90天内发布，尽管这些报告已被缩减为几段文字。
The most recent death reported by ICE was that of Luis Sandoval, 48, a Salvadoran immigrant who died of apparent suicide Friday. Staff at the Folkston D. Ray ICE Processing Center in Georgia found Sandoval with a ligature around his neck, according to an ICE news release. ICE policy is to notify the public and Congress within two business days of a detainee's death. More extensive reports about each death, which were typically three pages, must be released within 90 days, though those have been reduced to a few paragraphs.
