That rate has more than doubled since Trump returned to office, reaching about one death for every 1,630 people based on preliminary data through early June.<br>The data analyzed by Reuters was obtained by the Deportation \u200cData Project through a public records request and processed by the Vera Institute of Justice, a nonprofit organization that advocates for lower incarceration rates.<br>The causes of detainee deaths can be complex and do not necessarily stem from neglect or abuse by detention-center administrators. But three experts in detention deaths who reviewed ICE records and autopsies for Reuters said the rising rate and other data points raised concerns about the quality of supervision and medical care in detention centers that have seen their populations balloon under Trump.<br>The population rose in the last year of Democrat Joe Biden&#8217;s administration, which stepped up enforcement amid election-year criticism. ICE held about 40,000 immigrants when Trump took office, up from a Biden-era low of about 14,000 in February 2021 during the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe system is not designed for chronic-care management,\u201d Diaz said, noting that at least two detainees who \u2060died had dementia and posed no risk to the public.<br>The Department of Homeland Security did not provide detailed records of the Trump-era deaths reviewed by Reuters. The agency said that it was committed to ensuring a \u201csafe, secure and humane\u201d environment in detention.<br>\u201cComprehensive medical care is provided from the moment individuals arrive and throughout the entirety of their stay,\u201d DHS spokesperson Lauren Bis said in a statement to Reuters.<br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Vietnamese man with cardiovascular problems collapsed and died in the \u201cSpeedway Slammer,\u201d the repurposed Indiana maximum-security prison that\u2019s become a symbol of the Trump administration\u2019s immigration crackdown.
